Joyce had his unbeaten record ended in April, losing to the hard-hitting Zhang after the fight was stopped due to his gruesome swollen eye.

‘Juggernaut’ instantly turned his attention to a rematch, activating the clause in his contract as he aims to win back his WBO interim heavyweight title.

Zhang’s size and power proved too much for the Brit last time and he derailed his opponent's plans to fight Tyson Fury or Oleksandr Usyk.

However, Joyce will be looking to put those plans back into place by regaining momentum and number one challenger status by getting one back over ‘Big Bang’.

Here is everything you need to know about Zhilei Zhang vs Joe Joyce 2.
