"I’m Ready." Zhang Zhilei Interested in a Fight with Usyk

Forty-one-year-old Chinese boxer Zhang Zhilei (27-2-1, 22 KOs) commented on a potential bout against WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs).

"The decision will depend on him. He managed to unify both divisions. He remained undefeated at heavyweight and showed complete dominance at super heavyweight. Now it’s time for him to make his own choice. He has the right to do what he wants. If Usyk expresses the desire and if organizing our fight sparks interest, I’m ready," said Zhang.

On December 21, Oleksandr Usyk defeated Tyson Fury by unanimous decision, defending his titles.

On February 22, Zhang Zhilei will step into the ring against Agit Kabayel.
