    He destroyed Joyce who had a cast iron chin. Can he repeat the feat here inside of 3 rounds like he did with Joyce in the rematch

    Cobb and Chuvalo I think he would stop. The other guys were a better class of fighter and would survive if not win.

    He has a very good chance of knocking them all out if he lands clean early.

    Although, I think Zhang would struggle against all these guys if they actually fought.

    Fighters like Cobb, Chuvalo, who were come forward brawlers with little to no defence would probably get stopped by Zhang.

    I don't see Zhang stopping any of the other fighters on the list though.

    Vitali has already fought a big punching Southpaw in Sanders.

    If Tua got hurt by Zhang he would go into a shell like he did vs Lewis except Zhang would tire out and Tua would stop him late on.

    McCall is a freak he took flush punches of Lewis whilst having a mental breakdown.

    Foreman I could see getting hurt by Zhang early but weathers the storm to stop Zhanf in the middle rounds.

    Tucker is a good skillful boxer with good movement and doesn't take too many risks he would be a very troubling style for Zhang.

    All these vintage fighters absolutely.
    Foreman got KO'd by feather-fisted Ali. 'Big George' would be dwarfed and is so slow he'd be smashed and stopped.
    As for the newer ones.
    Tua is a 5'10 roided fat man. He gets utterly demolished.
    Vitali rarely took flush bombs which is why people think he is indestructible. Zhang can KO him, but whether he lands enough is a different story.

    Zhangs 3 best opponents have all come back from a knockdown to not just survive but beat him. That is not a good sign so far as cracking unbreakable chins goes.

    Guys with unusually durable chins seem like a bad matchup for Zhang rather than the other way around.

    Zhang literally gets ended by Tua, Vitali and Foreman.

    Zhang is a fat, forty-something Chinese fraud who is no better than a bog average gatekeeper. Never got a shot at a legitimate strap because he is simply not good enough. He’s actually terrible. Fat, lazy, slow and has no tank.

    It’s an insult to most of the fighters named that basic foamers continue to post threads like this.

    And as to the continual referencing of Joe Joyce as if to say that Zhang possesses this unworldly power, well Joe Joyce is a chump who did nothing more than stand in front of Zhang and wait to get knocked out.

    I think there's a case that Zhang is one of the biggest punchers of all time.

    He's hurt Kabayel and Parker with what looked like taps. Both those men have proven their solid chins against big punchers.

    He's the only man to have ever KO'ed or even really hurt Joyce, who has an iron chin.

    He's the only man to have KD'ed Hrgovic.

    And people may scoff, but Wilder's stood up to some pretty big punches in his time, and his defeats to Fury were largely attrition/exhaustion. Certainly Wilder was never sparked in one KD like Zhang sparked him.

    Zhang has the touch of death. His issue is punch output and the fact that he only has about 4 rounds of stamina to land his big punch.

    Literally anybody on this list is a defensive wizard compared to Joe.

    Ali was not feather fisted. He was a very good puncher. Not elite but he could really put together amazing punches. Watch the left hook tko of an iron jawed Bonavena. Watch the way he buckled Liston in round 1 of their first fight. This is the same Liston that defeated the hard hitting Williams.

    Old George took clean hits of Briggs, Morrison, Cooney and Holyfield. Not exactly a weak bunch.

    Hed never land enough, or good enough, on Vitali to really hurt him imo.

    I do think he could potentially KO Foreman though, blasphemous as that is.
