    Joyce isn,t better than Holmes or Tucker ( prime that is ) 1988 Tyson would win this within 3 or 4 rounds i think
    The handspeed of Tyson would make the difference

    A prime Tyson had excellent head movement and was relentless.
    That Tyson would win easily against Joyce.
    A post Rooney Tyson would not.

    Tyson by decision. Dont think Joyce can be knocked out, his chin is made out of grade a steel.

    He was previously beaten by Spinks and didn`t look good at all, he was around 37 years old and his body didn`t look good.

    Tyson not having a heart is an overstatement. Some people on here mentioned his two fights with Ruddock. They were brutal. Lesser fighters could not have endured those fights.

    I personally view this thread as a joke. Tyson had everything and his prime. Speed, physical strength, punching power in both hands and dished out blistering combinations, granite chin, defense. He was very hard to hit clean. Joyce is slow and would get punished.

    Tyson stops him in 10. Joyce would be Tyson's punching bag in the bout.

    He looked a lot slower than in his prime, he looked far better around 1982 v Leon Spinks.
