Watch: Jake Paul’s Boxing Coach Details What Went Wrong With Joe Joyce in Zhilei Zhang Loss

In the boxing realm, the most minuscule of tweaks can result in triumph or downfall. It is widely acknowledged that a fighter’s style and bodily position hold immense sway over the final result of a fight. Recently, a recording surfaced on social media featuring Jake Paul’s boxing trainer scrutinizing a boxer’s defeat and precisely identifying the root cause behind it.

The video in question is of the highly publicized bout between Joe Joyce and Zhilei Zhang. Joyce, a British heavyweight boxer, suffered his first surprising defeat at the hands of Zhang, a Chinese boxer on Saturday, April 15, 2023. The coach’s breakdown of the fight has provided some insight into the factors that possibly led to Joyce’s loss and has reignited interest in the fight among boxing fans.

Benjamin Flores reveals the key factor that cost Joe Joyce the fight

Benjamin Flores, the trainer of the popular YouTuber and professional boxer, Jake Paul, recently posted a video on Twitter breaking down the reasons why Joe Joyce lost his fight against Zhilei Zhang. In the video, which has since gone viral, Flores provides his expert analysis of Joyce’s body position and style during the fight, which he claims made him an easy target for Zhang’s left hand.

Flores captioned the tweet, “Body position/squaring up made Joyce a target for the Zhang left hand. Styles make fights and Zhang was very sharp. Joe will make adjustments and be back. 📈📈”

During the video, Benjamin pointed out a critical flaw in Joyce’s boxing style, stating, “Look how squared Joe Joyce is when he is coming in with the right shoulder, Zhang getting him with his left hand as Joe’s right shoulder is all the way up.” This observation sheds light on the technical aspect of boxing and how a fighter’s body position can make them vulnerable to certain attacks. It is clear that Zhang was able to capitalize on this weakness in Joyce’s style and ultimately secure the victory. However, Benjamin also noted that Joyce is a skilled fighter who will make adjustments and come back stronger in future fights.

Moreover, Zhang believes he can exceed Deontay Wilder‘s performance against Fury. In their trilogy, Wilder failed to deliver a KO victory over Fury.

However, Fury is younger than Zhang and has proven his resilience and skills inside the ring. Do you think Zhilei Zhang has what it takes to defeat Tyson Fury and exceed Deontay Wilder’s performance?
