Of course he can if he lands, question is whether he gets smoked before he gets a chance to. Zhāng isn't exactly the quickest gun in the west (or east).
Zhang could KTFO anyone if he landed cleanly. The issue is that he has a few rounds to get it done and he has to be able to land the punch. He's aging so he’s also slowing down and his timing will be declining fight by fight and his stamina won’t be getting any better. Wardley may get hit, but he doesn’t get hit flush if you notice, he’s good at riding punches. At this point in time, I see Wardley getting out of the first half of the fight and stopping a tiring Zhang late on, maybe Wardley gets hurt early on, but sees it out.
In the first few rounds Zhang is more dangerous than anyone if he didn't slip. That punching technique is just spectacular as long as it lasts. And with a variety!
I think he would KO Wardley to be honest. Wardley’s defence isn’t great and Zhang has proven he can KO some good chins. Zhang is a MUCH bigger puncher than anyone Wardley has fought. Would have to be early though.
No one just comes up with this video. They have it bookmarked. I will translate this later. When I can be alone with my thoughts.
That would be a great shootout ... regardless of who won. I'd love to see it. I think Zhang has a couple more fights left in him.
Zhang would get stopped, too old and he's not a good finisher Fabio would find his way back into the fight
Zhang has the power to knock out any HW on any given night, but he's a front runner he's good for the first half, then he gasses out in the 2nd half. Wardley is a guy that would capitalize on that and if Zhang can't get to him early Wardley would stop him later in the fight. 8th round.
