Additionally, they need to stay hydrated and avoid consuming processed or high-sugar foods, which can negatively impact their performance.

Zhang, 40, dominated Joyce in April, damaging the 38-year-old’s eye to the point of closure and sealing a sixth-round stoppage. And when the pair returned to London on Saturday, it took Zhang just three rounds to repeat the trick.

The Alabama native displayed his much-vaunted power icying Stiverne (KO 1) in a rematch and Luis Ortiz (TKO 10 and KO 7) to set up the eagerly anticipated showdown with Tyson Fury. He benefitted from the scorecards to retain his title on a draw but was beaten down in the rematch and stopped in seven rounds, and then lost an exciting third fight in 11-rounds.

In addition to core strengthening exercises, boxers should also incorporate balance training into their workouts. Balance exercises such as single-leg squats, standing on one foot, and using a balance board can help improve stability and footwork in the ring. By improving balance, boxers can move more efficiently and effectively, making it easier to dodge punches and land their own.
