I hope you mean that someone broke into his hotel room and robbed Zhang of his goods. You can't be speaking about the Parker fight. Please tell me it's not the Parker fight.
Including the two knockdowns, Zhang would have had to win six rounds to win the fight 114-112. If he won five rounds it would have been a 113-113 draw. I cannot find a way to give Zhang six rounds in the fight. There is no way he won.
I was just impressed by how many punches Zhang threw. For a second, I thought Roman Gonzalez just got huge and was filling in for Zhang. But that can't happen, right?
Zhang lost both fights. 1 Zhang 10-8 2 Hrgovic 3 Zhang 4 Zhang 5 Hrgovic 6 Zhang 7 Hrgovic 8 Hrgovic 9 Zhang 10 Hrgovic 11 Hrgovic 12 Hrgovic 114-113 Hrgovic Round 1 Even Round 2 Parker Round 3 Zhang 10-8 Round 4 Parker Round 5 Parker Round 6 Parker Round 7 Zhang Round 8 Zhang 10-8 Round 9 Parker Round 10 Parker Round 11 Parker Round 12 Parker 115-112 Parker Zhang had more standout rounds but still lost more rounds overall due to his limited punch output and suspect stamina, for reference Zhang landed 0 punches in the 12th round vs Parker.
I think besides the knockdown rounds the only other round I gave Zhang was the first. Even the 2nd knockdown round, Parker won 2mins30 of the round....I think it's bull**** it should be a 10-8 round, should be a 9-9 round.
I just don’t understand why they have to fight again. It’s like Trump vs Biden, the rematch nodody wants.
I'm glad somebody made this point. A fighter should NOT get an automatic 10-8 round if he scores a KD, especially a flash KD. There's more to a round than what happens in several seconds during a KD. Put another way, without the KD Parker was on his way to a solid 10-9 round. How does one weak KD flip the scoring 3 full points to 10-8 Zhang?? 9-9 (or 10-10) even round is fair. At best 10-9 Zhang. Thread title s/be Zhang was NOT robbed AGAIN
No, Parker didn`t land much that round, just a few crisp shots, it was a cagey fight, Parker won with spurts and flurries.
I like Zhang but he did virtually nothing apart from the 2 flash knockdowns & threw the fight away by hardly throwing any punches in the championship rounds. Parker won fair & square
He admitted in his own words he lost: Congratulations to @joeboxerparker you are the better man tonight. It’s a pleasure sharing the ring with you. We have to see each other again but I’m happy we both came out of the ring healthy. Thank you Saudi Arabia, https://www.instagram.com/zhileibigbangzhang/p/C4RvyM5oCYZ/?hl=de So cased closed about robbery. Zhang is definately a fair sportsman!
100% bro. Judging needs to be looked at and rules re-applied, more the rules tbh as it stands it's flawed.
