It has been years since we have seen him in this kind of iconic long ponytail. He has never had a full fledge long hair since he came in the spotlight.

The last time he had slightly long hair was in 2017. The image of him with his hair falling over his face in that year is the most recent we could find him with long hair.

Zhilei Zhang had a passion for boxing from an early age, which led him to initiate his career in boxing at the age of twenty.

He had already won gold medals at the National Games of China in the year 2001 and 2009. These achievements established him to be one of the best amateur boxers in China, and he decided to turn professional in 2011.

I am the best Heavyweight coming out of china. I just need an opportunity to become the best in the world.

As his words showcased, it did not take him much time to establish himself as one of the best boxers in the Heavyweight division.

Zhang has fought 27 times, resulting in 25 wins, only one loss, and a draw in his eight years and eight months of professional boxing career. His boxing record stands at 25-1-1 (20 KO wins) as of April 2023.

Boxing is a less-known sport in China. So, Zhang dreams of becoming the first Chinese Heavyweight champion to motivate other people to pursue boxing.
