    I saw Joyce get completely out-boxed by Usyk in a semi pro bout just after Joyce won his olympic silver so I was shocked when watching a Fouts boxing theory youtube live vid Fouts explained how good Joyce was, is Joyce really that good and will he destroy Dubois as easily as Fouts suggested on the same vid?

    Joyce is like Robinson's slow witted, slowly co ordinated Neanderthal cousin.

    Basically, he is nothing like Robinson whatsoever.

    Foust dksab, how many different people have to tell you, and show you, before you stop asking if his brain farts are legit?

    How do you figure they are more skilled when the variety of skills being used today is objectively less than even 20 years ago? How many great defensive fighters are there today? How many guys do you see using head movement? Feints? Inside techniques? Fighters today are as basic as ever. Then you've got guys like Fury who have literally zero atheleticsm dominating the top division in the sport. Please give me one shred of evidence that today's fighters are more skilled than before

    A 6'6'' 260-270lb Robinson couldn't do a backflip or Capoeira. Imagine how much more athletic Joyce would be if he weighed 100lb less?

    Fury is very athletic for his size and is great at slipping shots.

    Tap dancing is useless in a street fight. Capoeira, however..
