The month of June is kicking off with an exciting heavyweight clash between Wilder and Zhang. This bout will be played in the Queensbury vs Matchroom 5v5 event in Saudi Arabia, and it will be held on Saturday, June 1. Who is the favorite to get the win between Wilder and Zhang?
Deontay Wilder said that he might retire if he loses to Zhilei Zhang in this fight. The bout between Wilder and Zhang will headline the event at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This is one of the most interesting heavyweight clashes in June, and it will be a 12-round fight as usual. There are some other exciting matchups in this event, as Dmitry Bivol will take on Malik Zinad in the main event, while Raymond Ford will fight Nick Ball for the WBA featherweight title.
Here are the odds for the winner of the boxing fight between Wilder and Zhang:
Deontay Wilder is considered a slight underdog, according to the best boxing bookmakers. The Bronze Bomber was undefeated in his first 43 boxing bouts before losing three of the last four. He still has a very good record of 43-3-1, as 42 of those wins were by knockouts. Wilder is known for his punching power, and that makes him a dangerous opponent to face.
Zhilei Zhang is coming off a loss to Joseph Parker, as is Deontay Wilder. Big Bang Zhang has shown how dangerous he is, beating Joe Joyce in back-to-back fights in 2023. The Chinese boxer has a 26-2-1 professional boxing record, and he showed that he is a resilient fighter with good technical abilities. Zhilei will most likely have the advantage if the fight goes to distance, but he needs to be careful not to get knocked out in the ring.
