🥊 Chinese boxer Zhang Zhilei delivered a stunning performance on June 1, knocking out former WBC world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder in the fifth round in Riyadh! 🎉 This victory marks the biggest win of his professional career, showcasing what he proudly calls 'Chinese Power'. 🇨🇳✨
As the Paris Games approach, the two-time Olympian reflected on his past experiences in Beijing and London. In an interview with Sport Scene's Greg Laffradi, Zhang shared, \"The feelings were the same. Before turning professional in boxing, the Olympics are our highest honor, so we represent our country in the Olympics and fight for the honor of the country.\" 🏅❤️
He continued, \"Even though after turning professional, I no longer represent the national team, when I step out of China, I represent China. So every time I fight, you can see China's national flag on my boxing shorts, and I tell boxing fans around the world: 'This is Chinese Power.'\" 💪🌟
With China's Olympic delegation gearing up for their journey to Paris next month, Zhang offered some heartfelt advice: \"As a senior Olympian, I want to tell them: relax your mind and do your best to show 'Chinese Power' to the world. I hope all of them can achieve good results in Paris.\" 🎯🙌
His words resonate not just with athletes but with all of us striving to make our mark on the world stage. Keep pushing forward, and let your power shine! 🚀✨
