“Out of all the heavyweights in the world, if I was competing now, he’d be in my eyes the toughest to beat. I’m talking about Fury, AJ, and Ngannou. His style, his rhythm, and now that he’s started putting some conditioning in, now he can fight for longer rounds,” said David Haye about Zhang.
Tyson bokste op explosieve wijze: waar andere boksers in de eerste ronde hun tegenstander aftastten, ging Tyson er meteen vol tegenaan.

The fight had originally been scheduled for box November 2018 by Matchroom Sport but Zhang missed out because of visa problems.
