In one word, yes, Mike Tyson has a ‘Lisp’ disorder. Lisp is a condition where you suffer from speech impairment and its scientific name is ‘Sigmatism’. It happens due to misalignment between the throat, tongue, lips, or teeth during speaking. The rare condition produces slurry and mumbled speech.

The event at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, featured showdowns between boxing 147 division promotions, with Zhang vs. Wilder at the top of the bill in a heavyweight clash that was sure to produce fireworks. At 1:51 of Round 5, it would be Zhang who lit the fuse and detonated a vicious right hand on the chin of Wilder to close the show.

Zhang, says Tommy, “can be the godfather of Chinese boxing,” a pioneer for future generations. “The next Sugar Ray Robinson could be some 8-year-old from Shanghai who’s never seen a boxing glove,” says Tommy. “They have the athletic talent pool. There’s no reason it can’t be.”

Zhang considered turning professional at 25 years of age after the 2008 Olympics, but could not until 2014. Dino Duva and Don King were the first promoters to approach Zhang. In August 2009, Duva and King arranged for Zhang to train at the Poconos. In September 2010, Duva arranged for Zhang to train in the Poconos to prepare him for the 2010 Asian Games. The highlight of that training were 11 bouts between the Chinese and American national boxing teams in Manhattan promoted as “Empires Collide”, which Zhang defeated Danny Kelly Jr 16:8 in the main fight. Zhang dominated in all domestic amateur heavyweight competitions from 2005 until 2013. He was finally released by the Henan Provincial Combat and Weightlifting Center after he competed in the 2012 Olympics and won the gold medal for 2013 National Games of China.

But Zhang still faces a wait to get to Usyk as the WBO’s No. 1 challenger. Usyk is expected to hold talks with Fury about a unification title fight, and IBF mandatory challenger Filip Hrgović is then next in line for a shot at Usyk.

After the fight, Zhang offered a sop to the London crowd, asking them, “Do you want me to shut Tyson Fury up?”, a question that drew a big round of applause. For Fury and for Frank Warren it will be difficult to avoid a Zhang fight in the near future.

Joseph Parker continued his career resurrection with a majority decision win over Zhilei Zhang in Saudi Arabia, which comes less than three months after he pulled off a massive upset to beat Deontay Wilder.

Zhilei Zhang’s amateur career is highlighted by his remarkable achievements, including winning a silver medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and bronze medals at the 2007 and 2009 World Championships. These accomplishments solidified his reputation as a formidable boxer with immense talent and skill. Zhang’s dedication and hard work were evident in his performances, as he consistently displayed exceptional technique and determination in the ring. His success on the international stage served as a stepping stone for his future endeavors in the world of professional boxing, where he continues to make a name for himself as a force to be reckoned with. Zhang’s amateur achievements are a testament to his passion for the sport and his unwavering commitment to excellence.

Eddie Hearn, promoteur de l’ancien double champion des poids lourds Anthony Joshua, affirme que le prochain combat de la star britannique est toujours prévu pour le mois de mars en Arabie Saoudite.

Paul posted a video on his Instagram detailing his new face tattoo—the same one Tyson has (though it’s unclear if Paul’s tattoo is real)—before showing a man with a bite taken out of his ear. Paul then showed himself with a fake ear in his mouth.

Monica Turner became one of the few who did not turn away from Mike then. After all the years of imprisonment, the girl visited Mike in prison, and after his release, the couple married, but their marriage did not last long – only six years. After the divorce, he disappeared and tattooed a portrait of his wife, over which the boxer put a new drawing.

Born on June 30, 1966, Michael Gerard Tyson didn’t initially seem like the kind of boy who would grow up to be a fearsome and powerful fighter. According to ESPN, Tyson described himself as “a little fat kid with glasses” who was frequently hounded by bullies.

Joe Joyce won the WBO Interim World Heavyweight title in a September 2022 bout against Joseph Parker. Zhang’s last bout before facing Joyce was in August 2022 when he suffered his first loss to Croatian Filip Hrgović, after a close-fought battle where he lost by unanimous decision in what was described as a “generous” decision by broadcaster Sky Sports after a “bizarre” performance by Hrgović.
