    Credit to Zhang for having the balls to take the fight and for producing a brutal demolition in the ring.

    Usyk v Zhang next please.

    Round 1: Zhang 10-9
    Round 2: Zhang 10-9
    Round 3: Joyce 10-9
    Round 4: Zhang 10-9
    Round 5: Zhang 10-9 (close)
    Round 6: Zhang KO

    49-46 Zhang

    The doctor takes a look at Joyce’s eye at the start of the round but allows the action to continue. If Zhang lands a few more clean shots the doctor will stop the fight.

    Hrgovic’s win is aging like fine wine.

    Zhang lands a massive left hand about half way through the round. He doesn’t look too tired and is full of confidence. The referee stops the action and calls the doctor. He stops the fight.

    Wow!!!

    ZHANG WINS BY KOOOOOO

    Joyce fought a stupid fight

    Very easy to hit. Always has been and a great chin doesn't make up for it.

    Joyce beats Joshua? Ya'll are bugging thinking that.

    Joshua would tear him apart with ease.

    The hype over Joyce was a joke.

    What will Dev Sahni say now. Massive win for Zhang.

    Remember when people said Joyce would beat Wilder!

    Disappointing result.

    Joyce lack defence I said all along was exposed.

    Zhang can bang.

    Hrgovic edging Zhang looking very good now.

    AJ shouldnt bother with Whyte but fight either Zhang or Hrgovic if Fury bottles again.

    Pleased for Zhang. Seems like a stand up fella.

    My opinion on Joyce has flip flopped again. Looks like his chin has cracked and he looks to be even slower despite coming in lighter. I’d now back both Usyk and Joshua to knock him out.

    Great performance from Zhang.
    He has good defence whereas Joyce was eating his shots

    At the end of the day Joyce is a plodder.

    He got outJoyced. It was always a danger with this fight.

    This is the problem with fighters that use their face as their defence. You may be tough but you're always susceptible to things like this.
