I have a weird feeling that Zhang vs. Kabayel will be pretty one sided.

Zhang gasses faster than a flat tyre. Kabayel is relentless. If rhr fight is still going after 4 rounds it is going to get bad for Zhang.

 

Kabayel doesn't have great defense, so if he gets clipped, he may not withtstand Zhang's power, but beside thar, yeah, I think Kabayel will be too much for the Chinaman.

 

I like this thread because before I opened it I genuinely couldn't tell which side would be favoured.

Anyway I think it will be the opposite, I'm not confident the Kabayel can get in range and unload his shots without catching something back. But like all Zhang fights, if it goes past six Kabayel should have it.

 

Many pitfalls in that bout, but I agree—there is a chance Kabayel will get to brutally finish it should Zhang exhaust himself.

Agit is brutally professional. Gave Sanchez absolutely no respite.

 

Zhang has become pretty overrated here. Kabayel by mid-round exhaustion tko.

 

I think that can definitely happen. It’s either that or a Zhang walks him into something big.

 

Kabayel won't survive Zhang's good moments early on. He's getting slept by a counter inside 3 rounds, too hittable.

 

100% - I can see Zhang catching Kabayel early and closing it out as he hits like a truck. But I think Kabayel has enough smarts to keep things cautious for first 3 rounds, trying to get in to the body and out again.

What makes this the most interesting for me is even if Kabayel is cautious, Zhang has deceptively fast hands and might catch him with something sneaky.

 

Tough one to call. Huge question marks around both. I personally have a strange feeling that Zhang will get the KO

 

Kabayel should get on his bike the first 3-4 rounds. Don’t engage Zhang early on. Just try to score some points and stay out of danger.

 

always a chance with Zhang.

 

Zhang has become the top KD/KO guy in boxing and hopefully that continues. It's very sad AJ was too scared to fight him because China could have then had KO's of both Wilder and AJ on his list.

What I find weird is that Fury went to Sugar Hill for Kronk style and in many interviews Sugar assured us that he had made Fury into a KO artist. Then Fury took 7 rounds to still not stop Wilder, 11 rounds to stop him, didn't even drop the MMA fighter and couldn't drop Usyk in two fights.

But Zhang didn't learn Kronk style and just KO's or KD's everyone. I'm wondering whether it's possible that Kronk style really isn't quite what it's made out to be and maybe Fury was actually never turned into a KO artist.

 

When AJ was considering fighting Zhang in late 2022, ya'll were saying he's cherry picking the loser. Now he was afraid of him because he didn't fight him xD you literally can't make this up.
