    IMO Joyce is the worst possible matchup for Yoka, as well as Nistor, who he was lucky to avoid.

    Joyce will back him up into the ropes, and just pound on him, I mean it's not the most technical way to go about it, but Joyce has insane stamina, and I don't see how Yoka will withstand that onslaught

    These SHWs are absolutely horrific. I reckon I could name about 25 pros who would absolutely crush them all. Joyce is horrific and I'm a Brit. Slow programmed punches, no jab, poor defence, awful balance. The stamina levels of these guys has been awful. The Cape Verde guy in the first round was a disgrace.

    Haye could stop all these guys in the first round.

    It's a tough format though, fighting every few days, not game planning for certain opponents, ect ect

    A lot of people said that against Joshua back in his ammy days, and look how he turned out.

    definitely super heavies without cammarelle etc don't look great, i think the guys at 91kg could easily beat most of them guys, levitt, savon and cammarelle

    Shields is the only women's boxer I've seen who is actually slick. Katie Taylor and Ryker had great technique and speed, but Shields has speed plus great inside defence, reflexes, and counterpunching skill.

    you mean like baldado? savon? and stevenson? the best super heavies ever were cuban, 1, you don't deserve a reply from me, and second, savon at super heavy would have beaten any of those fighters, pero is far too small and so was larduet, there's nothing about joyce or yoka that's extremely talented, savon had brutally koed yoka and beaten him over 3 times

    Agreed, technically limited, slow and sluggish. Joyce is a disaster waiting to happen in the pros. He gets Tony Thompson'd in brutal fashion, mark my words.
