Zhilei Zhang takes out Devin Vargas with a beautiful combination
The heavyweight matchup had its flow broken when Zhang countered Varga’s left jab with a beautiful 1-2 combination. At the beginning of the fourth-round, Vargas attacked Zhang with a couple of shots. However, the 37-year-old was ready with the answers.
