Chinese and British boxers will meet in London at the OVO Arena Wembley.

Joe Joyce and Zhang Zhilei officially confirmed the date and place of their second meeting. Queensberry Promotions announced on its official website that the rematch between the interim WBO heavyweight champion and the British boxer will take place on September 23.

The Chinese will defend his belt, which was won in the first meeting of the boxers, at the OVO Arena Wembley in London.

It can be recalled that in the first fight, held in April of this year, Joyce was defeated by Zhilei by technical knockout in the sixth round, losing the WBO interim champion belt. After the fight, the British boxer took advantage of the right prescribed in the contract for an immediate revenge.

It can be remembered that Zhilei previously prevented Joyce from holding a rematch.
