    Because the people "ducking him" have better options to pursue. If the best Frank Warren can offer is Christian Hammer that's on him.

    I have said it before and I will say it again Joe Joyce is going to be very difficult and awkward to beat. Can he beat the top guys like AJ, Fury and Usyk. The answer is possibly yes as they could beat him as well. Beating Joyce will take careful strategy and implementation and is not going to be easy. Putting Dubois in with him was a stupid mistake as it was only going to end one way.

    Ultimately ended as I expected it would but we saw for a couple of rounds how easy Joyce is to hit. Showcased his iron chin mind.

    The point here is the same here albeit you're on opposite sides of the coin.


    The simple fact is Joyce is simply to high a risk V's reward.

    You can look at that from either a positive or negative angle as is being demonstrated.

    Very impressive from Tete to be able to take out a fringe 122lbs'er with that ease.

    Life in the old dog yet.

    It's a valid point, but I do think his profile is improving and a Joyce vs Whyte, Joyce vs Fury or Joyce vs AJ would do decent numbers. Even Joyce vs Ruiz would sell because of his 'W' against AJ. But yeah the risk still outweighs the reward, you're right.

    Boxers below that level who have been offered the fight but chosen another route; well that's harder to justify...

    I agree totally with your points mate. The numbers would be good I'm sure. We've already had Joe Parker pull out haven't we?.

    Well he was going to but his chosen opponent buggered off for a pay day

    And if that's the case why is Parker calling him out (despite knowing the fight cant happen)

    The fight only can't happen is because of Frank Warren refusing to come to the table.
