    Two titanic punchers

    Let's see it happen

    I got Big Mak in an ugly slugfest war of attrition

    Zhang might be too skilled for him…

    Zhang KO1-2

    Much better speed, skills, IQ, more proven chin, probably hits harder as well

    Big Mak Man getting underrated here. Though if anyone is going to splatter him it's Zhang.

    Maybe

    But only one way to find out

    The top guys are hanging out for that Saudi money and won't risk the payday

    Meanwhile the guys below them can duke it out to eventually challenge them

    I don't think Mak is that good tbh, I think he's easy pickings for Zhang.

    Mak needs to pay his dues first. I'm pretty sure Zhang is fighting a top 3 opponent next. Mak should fight Ajagba.

    He's in line with Hrgovic as mando for Usyk but will likely need a stay busy fight. No chance that will be Makhmudov. Step up Chisora/Parker/Pulev/Wallin.

    Zhang by KO in the early rounds.

    Mak gets hit too often and doesn't punch near as fast as Zhang, who has a strong chin and good defense. He'd go in there trying to make it a game of rock em sock em robots and get taken out after a few of Zhang's bombs landed clean. Think of Rozanski vs. Babic and that's kinda what I'm picturing here, except one guy actually has technique to his game.
