Sunday - bart - 09-19-2023 I have to drive a van load of teenage soccer players to ChCh sunday morning leaving at 9am... probably missing the fight! Pricks RE: JJ/Zhang II. Sunday - diehard - 09-20-2023 What a shame! Will your team of techies be travelling with you??? RE: JJ/Zhang II. Sunday - diehard - 09-20-2023 Zhang a slight favorite over Joyce Heavyweight Zhilei Zhang (25-1-1, 20 KOs) is an ever so slight favorite over Joe Joyce (15-1, 14 KOs) in their rematch this Saturday at the OVO Arena in London. Sportsbooks have the bout anywhere from pickāem to -141 for Zhang, who won the first fight by sixth round TKO. The WBO interim heavyweight title is on the line. ESPN+ will stream the bout in the US, while TNT Sports will air the fight in the UK. RE: JJ/Zhang II.

Sunday - bart - 09-20-2023 I believe Joyce will try to avoid Zhang early and presume by taking ZZ into the later rounds he will gas. But if he does that Zhang will pick his shots and determine the pace at a rate he will be comfortable. So I see a longer fight but same/similar result stoppage or wide decision to Zhang. I just think he is wrong for JJ RE: JJ/Zhang II. Sunday - diehard - 09-20-2023 How is JJ going to avoid ZZ's left hand? ZZ has power, size, and that left hand. JP had none of those things. RE: JJ/Zhang II. Sunday - bart - 09-20-2023 he might try and stay away although it is only try as it goes against his natural style. I expect he will revert to blocking Zhangs lefts and sneaky right hooks with his face soon enough JP landed some great shots on JJ but couldn't follow up- nor did JP have the power in his shots that ZZ possesses. JJ main and poss only chance is Zhang gassing before damage is inflicted to his eye again or ref/ corner deciding he has taken too many shots. RE: JJ/Zhang II. Sunday - diehard - 09-21-2023 JJ said that he wanted to take him deep into the fight last time. Didn't work. So this time... https://www.boxingscene.com/zhang-joyce-rematch-british-chinese-south-african-judges-assigned-fight-saturday-night--177862 |
