JOE JOYCE will be seeking revenge when he takes on Zhilei Zhang in a highly anticipated rematch on SATURDAY night.
The Brit suffered the first defeat of his professional career when the two last met in April.
The fight was stopped in the sixth round after Zhang dealt a gruesome blow to Joyce’s right eye, damaging it to the point of closure.
Zhang not only became the first person to beat the ‘Juggernaut’, but he also claimed the WBO interim heavyweight title in the process.
The winner of Saturday night’s highly anticipated bout could potentially set up a mouthwatering clash with Oleksandr Usyk.
