Back to reality as Chinese boxer Zou Shiming wraps up hit TV show to continue world title bid in Macau
Two-time Olympic gold medallist has been starring in 'Dad, Where Are We Going' on Hunan TV
Chinese star Zou Shiming will return to “reality” and resume training as he continues to embark on his mission of one day winning a world title.
The two-time Olympic gold medallist will climb back into the ring in Macau in November, but don’t expect fireworks this time as the 34-year-old Guizhou native will fight in a non-title bout.
The November 28 fight, which is being finalised by co-promoters Top Rank and Venetian Macao, will be Zou’s first fight since losing a unanimous decision against Amnat Ruenroeng for the Thai’s International Boxing Federation (IBF) world flyweight title six months ago.
Since then, Zou has been busy – outside the ring.
The 2008 Beijing and 2010 London Games gold medallist is wrapping up filming a reality show for Hunan Television, which has been a huge hit on the mainland.
Where Are We Going, Dad? attracts an audience of up to 75 million and features five fathers with their sons travelling to China’s rural places.
