As for fighting…I would say that you need to work on keeping your distance with footwork. Don’t cover your eyes for Pete’s sake! Trying to stay inside (or anywhere) without being able to see your opponent is asking for a knockout. If you’re going to try and fight in the pocket you just have to start throwing punches and use your superior punching power etc. Try to relax and don’t freeze when you’re being punched at. Look for openings. Remember, every time he punches he leaves an opening, so take advantage of it!

« Talk about a great pairing of nicknames — « The Bronze Bomber » versus « Big Bang » Zhang. This is a fight that demands a knockout ending, and according to the oddsmakers who have Zhang a slight favorite, one has the right to assume they’re most swayed by the difference in punch resistance that favors Zhang as well as Wilder’s dismal performance against common conqueror Joseph Parker, a man Zhang floored twice before losing on points. If Zhang lands his lethal left cross on Wilder’s chin, especially early, there will be no opportunity for Wilder to exploit Zhang’s biggest weakness, stamina. That’s what happened in the Joe Joyce rematch and the pick is that Zhang’s « Big Bang » will be enough to take out the « Bronze Bomber. »
