    AJ talked them up to Eddie Chambers but it turned out they weren't so superior in the end.
    Yoka is a roiding failure and Joyce got destroyed twice by a guy who should be retired.

    Tony Yoka is not even European Level, Joyce is good but he ran into a landmine twice...

    He sure was right

    Both got their asses beat !!! Just like aj

    They definitely resemble the bodybuilder in one way or another, but they still have heart, so they can't be the heir to joshua's ikea toilet throne just yet

    It's not that you were wrong so much as that power went away after a quiet steroids scandal.

    Jai Opetaia will eventually step up to HW and they won’t be able to stop him there either.

    This one didn't age at all well for AJ, especially the Yoka prediction.

    I have nothing personally against Yoka because I don't know much about him in that regard

    But I hold it against him that he won gold after both my boys Hrgovic in semi-final and Big Joe Joyce in the final clearly beat his ass

    Even worse, someone posted in the Olympic boxing RBR thread days or maybe even a week or so before the semi-finals that the fix was in for Yoka to win gold and they were right.

    And I just don't respect his lack of punch resistance. It's just not manly

    Yoka was nothing more than a hypejob while Joyce is a solid world level contender who is extremely vulnerable to big punchers. This prediction aged like milk.

    AJ is the biggest bum in boxing

    Joyce is a good amateur but not a good pro at all.

    Idiot? Usyk has a far higher fight IQ than Fury however he has looked more human at heavy which is the reason Fury will probably beat him, Usyk boxed Joyce`s ears off just after he won gold at the olympics in the amateurs.

    Wow Usyk one of the most achieved amateurs of all time boxed the head off a baby green Joyce in a 4 rounder who walked face first at him. That's really impressive. Wow.

    Joyce was no greener than any other olympic silver medalist at that point and plus it was at heavyweight too.
