According to the American boxing **, former WBC heavyweight world champion Wilder lost to former WBO boxing champion Parker at the end of last month, which led to the collapse of his fight with Joshua, after Wilder lost this match, his past four fights are only 1-3, and his career has come to a crossroads.
In this regard, Wild head coach Marik Scott revealed Wilder's next plan, Scott pointed out that Zhang Zhilei is not Wilder's opponent: "We may find Andy Ruiz or Dubois next, they are in a better position, but I am most concerned about Wilder's own situation. Wilder's mental state, mental state, physical state are the most important, as long as Wilder recovers physically and mentally, no one can beat him. ”
According to the analysis of foreign fans, if Wilder still decides to make a comeback, he must recover for at least half a year, and choose a relatively safe opponent to restore his confidence after half a year. And Scott's opponent did not mention Zhang Zhilei, which also means that Zhang Zhilei once again lost the opportunity to make a lot of money against giants in the short term.
Zhang Zhilei revealed some time ago that his next title defense match may be against Ajaba, but the news of the title defense has disappeared in recent days, perhaps because Zhang Zhilei's negotiations with Ajaba are not going well.
Entering 2024, Zhang Zhilei's official age is 41 years old, if he fights some less valuable fighters is very detrimental to his career, the next step is to choose a mediocre opponent to hold the belt first, waiting for the opportunity to compete for the official WBO world belt, or choose a high-risk former boxing champion like Ruiz with good commercial value to fight, this is a question that needs to be seriously considered by Zhang Zhilei's team.
It should be said that no matter how Zhang Zhilei chooses next, there are pros and cons, low risk means low return, and choosing high risk will also bring high return, as for whether Zhang Zhilei can get the opportunity to make a lot of money with giants in the future, let's wait and see.
