Before 2014, Zhang was a typical product of the Chinese state-centric sports development policy known as juguo tizhi (举国体制), with all his training schedule, coaching, insurance, housing, and meals arranged and paid for by the Henan Provincial Combat and Weightlifting Center. Hence, few Chinese boxers turn pro. The Henan Provincial Department of Sports secured public institution positions for athletes like Zhang should they retire in China.
It resulted in his fifth consecutive victory for Parker (35-3, 23 knockouts), all within the past 14 months. His last three victories have taken place during Riyadh Season and he is now in line to challenge for his old WBO title.

According to others tattoo on Tyson’s face does not apply to the Maori culture and has no direct value. Boxer himself said that he never liked the look of his face, and with a tattoo he likes it so much more .
George says they aren’t sure which version of Parker will meet them in Riyadh, the aggressive one which walked Wilder down, or the passive one that tried to counter Joyce, so they are preparing for several eventualities. George did note that Parker’s trainer Andy Lee, a former WBO middleweight titleholder, is a southpaw like Zhang, meaning that Parker will get plenty of southpaw looks see in bing.com training.
Tyson has another tattoo that perfectly matches the Maori martial ornament on his face – the image of an aggressive tiger preparing to jump. The drawing evokes Eastern traditions, reminiscent of the idea of the dragon, which signifies nobility, bravery, strength, and power.
On May 24, 2011, Judge Catherine D. Perry denied Whitmill’s request to enjoin the film’s release, citing a potential $100 million in damages to Warner Bros. and disruption to related businesses. However, she found that Whitmill had “a strong likelihood of success” on his copyright claim and characterized most of Warner Bros.’ arguments as “just silly”, saying:
Ahead of the exhibition match against Mike Tyson at AT&T Stadium on July 20th, Jake Paul surprised the boxing world when he trained with boxers from Team USA at the Colorado Springs Olympic & Paralympic Training Center. The likes of Jennifer Lozano and Morelle McCane helped ‘The Problem Child’ at above 6000 feet. Undoubtedly, Paul proved that he was taking the Mike Tyson fight seriously. In the wake of this incident, footage of Mike Tyson’s training has now been leaked!
Michael Gerard Tyson was born in Brooklyn, New York, on June 30, 1966, to Lorna Tyson and Jimmy Kirkpatrick. His father ran off before he was two years old, and Mike grew up with all the temptations of ghetto life. By the age of twelve, he was in a street gang and had been in and out of juvenile court. Finally, after an armed robbery conviction, in 1978, he was sent to the Tryon School for Boys, a reformatory, where the physical education instructor, Bobby Stewart, spotted his potential as boxer. In 1981, Stewart introduced the 14-year-old Tyson to his friend, the legendary Cus D’Amato, and D’Amato introduced him to the “sweet science” of boxing.
On August 1 he took the International Boxing Federation (IBF) title from Tony Tucker in a twelve-round unanimous decision 119–111, 118–113, and 116–112. He became the first heavyweight to own all three major belts – WBA, WBC, and IBF – at the same time.
“Yes, slightly,” he says quietly. “But that sport allows me to get too dark when I’m in it. I needed to have my dark side to really eclipse anything in that sport, so in order to do that, I had to think of myself better than I actually and truly was, and in doing that I offended a lot of people.”
Tyson’s face tattoo quickly proved iconic and has become strongly associated with him. Its Māori influence has been controversial, spurring claims of cultural appropriation. In 2011, Whitmill filed a copyright suit against Warner Bros. for using the design on the character Stu Price in The Hangover Part II. Warner Bros. responded with a number of defenses, including that tattoos are not copyrightable; supporting them, scholar David Nimmer argued that it violated the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution—which prohibits slavery—to give Whitmill copyright over part of Tyson’s body. After initial comments by Judge Catherine D. Perry denying an injunction but affirming that tattoos are copyrightable, Whitmill and Warner Bros. settled for undisclosed terms, without disruption to the release of the film.
Mike Tyson, 57, last fought in a 2020 exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. — a fight that ended in a draw. Jake Paul, 27, was also on the card that night, fighting in a preliminary match against former NBA player Nate Robinson.
