Share - WeChat
Chinese UFC Women's World Champion Zhang Weili told China Daily Mike Tyson should practice MMA before commenting on the sport.
Zhang will defend her UFC strawweight title versus Rose 'Thug' Namajunas in April. However, the retired boxing great supported Namajunas, saying in a previous interview the American fighter will "destroy" Zhang.
Zhang said she kept at hard training after defending her title for the first time against Poland's Joanna Jedrzejczyk in March last year in Las Vegas. The Chinese fighter also hopes Namajunas will stay healthy before the fight, which should be the "memory of a lifetime".
