Timeline
Zou Shiming (born 18 May 1981) is a Chinese former professional boxer who competed from 2013 to 2017 and held the WBO flyweight title from 2016 to 2017.
As an amateur, Zou is China's most successful boxer of all time.
In the light-flyweight division, he won three consecutive Olympic medals (bronze in 2004 and gold in 2008 and 2012), as well as three World Amateur Boxing Championships gold medals in 2005, 2007 and 2011.
Zou Shiming competed in his first amateur boxing competition at the 2004 Asian Amateur Boxing Championships and won silver, losing in the final to Pakistan's Noman Karim but qualifying for the 2004 Summer Olympics.
At the 2004 Summer Olympics, he won his first match by beating Rau'shee Warren in the round of 32.
He lost to eventual champion Yan Bartelemí in the semi-finals and ended up winning bronze.
Zou won the 2005 World Amateur Boxing Championships by beating Pál Bedák in the final, becoming the first ever Chinese boxer to win the tournament.
He repeated his triumph from 2005 at the 2007 World Amateur Boxing Championships, beating David Ayrapetyan early in the tournament and Harry Tanamor in the final; however, Zou had to settle for silver at the 2007 Asian Amateur Boxing Championships, losing in the final against Pürevdorjiin Serdamba.
At the 2006 Asian Games, Zou won gold by beating Suban Pannon 21–1 in the final match.
During the final, Serdamba, his opponent from the final of the 2007 Asian Amateur Boxing Championships, was forced to retire due to a shoulder injury.
After Serdamba was not able to continue, Zou burst into tears in compassion for his fellow boxer's injury.
At the 2008 Summer Olympics, Zou won China's 50th gold medal of the tournament by winning the final of the light flyweight event, winning China's first ever gold medal in Olympic boxing.
Zou did not compete in the 2009 World Amateur Boxing Championships, but he came back to win gold at the 2010 Asian Games.
Like Zou, Ruenroeng also fought at the Olympics, and lost to Zou at the 2010 Asian Games.
Ruenroeng shattered Zou's dreams of becoming world champion and gifted him his first professional loss when he scored a unanimous decision win after 12 rounds and retained his title in the process.
Roenroeng won the bout comfortably with all three judges scoring it (116-111 x3), despite being controversially knocked down in round 2 as he lost his balance.
Each time Zou tried to get on the inside, Ruenroeng used his jab and counterpunch to keep control of the fight.
Following the loss, Zou was ranked #7 by the IBF and WBO and #9 by the WBC.
He also won his third straight gold at the 2011 World Amateur Boxing Championships.
Zou won gold again at the 2012 Summer Olympics by beating Kaeo Pongprayoon 13–10, but several critics regarded his victory as controversial.
