There’s something undeniably electric about today’s heavyweight boxing scene. From the towering charisma of Tyson Fury to the explosive power of Deontay Wilder, the gritty resilience of Oleksandr Usyk, and the redemption-seeking spirit of Anthony Joshua—we’re living in an era that feels like it’s on the edge of something legendary. But as these giants contemplate hanging up their gloves, the big question looms: Is this the last golden age of heavyweight boxing?

All eyes will be on Saudi Arabia this weekend as Anthony Joshua takes on Francis Ngannou in one of the biggest crossover fights in history.

He may be only 5ft2, but Nick Ball has been making a big impression on the world of boxing in the past couple of years and this Saturday, he gets his shot at becoming world champion against Mexico’s Rey Vargas.

Whilst all eyes are on Anthony Joshua, and understandably so, there are four other Brits who are raring to go in Riyadh, as the biggest night of their careers draws ever closer.

Zhilei Zhang and Joseph Parker are a blend of heavyweight that should well deliver us a first-rate fight. So, with the pair colliding just a few days from now, let’s talk.

It was a repeat in London as Zhilei Zhang stopped Joe Joyce once again to retain his status as WBO interim world champion.

Heavyweight championship boxing returns to the shores of the UK this weekend as Joe Joyce looks to avenge the only defeat of his professional career against China’s 2008 Olympic silver medalist Zhilei Zhang.

For Joe Joyce, last time out was as devastating as they come. The man they said nobody could dent was dented into defeat by Zhilei Zhang. Now it is time to exact revenge.

In a division where rematches for world titles have become the norm, Zhilei Zhang heads to the UK again this weekend as he looks to defend his WBO Interim World Heavyweight Title in his highly anticipated rematch with fellow Olympic silver medalist Joe Joyce.

It was the weekend on which boxing was meant to wake up with an undisputed heavyweight champion. Instead, the sport’s premier division continues to frustrate. And with 2023 whizzing by, there is little time to resurrect what has been an idle year.

Joe Joyce and Zhilei Zhang meet this weekend in a heavyweight clash that is perhaps as much of a restoration of faith as it is an absolute slugfest.
