Zhang's most unforgettable finish in ONE to date came in a 178.5-pound catchweight MMA contest against welterweight mainstay Hiroyuki Tetsuka at ONE Fight Night 28 this past February.

Right from the get-go, 'The Warrior' put his striking chops on full display. The heavy-handed Chinese calmly gauged his opponent's range, landing a crisp jab that set the stage for a thunderous left hook — dropping the Japanese fighter hard to the canvas.

Seizing the moment, Zhang pounced with a ferocious barrage of ground-and-pound, prompting the referee to wave off the contest at just 2:06 of the opening round.
