Zhang Zhilei reveals who he wants to meet in the ring and when he wants it to happen

Chinese boxer Zhang Zhilei shared his plans for his next fight:

"I want to come back in March; that's my plan. If you ask me who I would like to box next, to be realistic, I would mention Joseph Parker. But will he decide to face me?

I am open to anything but focusing on training in the gym and my return to the ring.

I would like my next fight to take place in Saudi Arabia, but there is a lot of work behind it, and it's a whole process. I can't talk too much about it," Zhilei said.

On December 23, Joseph Parker defeated Deontay Wilder by unanimous decision.

It was previously known that Wilder and Zhilei could have a fight on the undercard of the Joshua vs. Ngannou bout on March 8.
