    Joyce to absorb lots of unnecessary overhand rights and headshots before Chisora eventually folds from a culminative beating that will be brutal to watch.

    Chisora was done years ago and Joyce is a never was hype job. Meaningless fight.

    Headline the O2? Chisora hasn’t beaten anyone in awhile and Joyce barely got past Kashmir Ali. This is an undercard fight at best

    Chisora's chin didn't look great when David Haye sparked him out in a few rounds. Your chin doesn't get better. The reason Parker and Fury couldn't do the same as Haye did because neither Parker or Fury are punchers.

    Also when did Chisora ever look good? Did he ever have a prime? If Chisora beat you it showed how bad you were, not how good Chisora was.

    Chisora might be the most beat up HW in the past 50 years

    Joyce looked crap in his last fight and Chisora should have retired about two year ago, just an opportunity for Joyce to get a win against a name and increase his confidence which is probably at an all time low

    Will be entertaining regardless

    That's because Haye was a legit huge puncher and a counter puncher at that, he was the only guy along with Tua that could stop John Ruiz too. Punchers like Helenius and Vitali couldn't stop Chisora, Chisora has a very good chin and still might do which is a bad situation for this fight, he's going to take a lot of punishment in this fight. I just hope his corner pull him out before he gets too badly busted up.

    He looked good beating Helenius, who was highly touted at the time. He surprised people by going the distance with Vitali and not getting totally battered like everyone else was at the time against Vitali. He looked pretty good between the Scott and Johnson fights before Fury totally battered him.

    But I agree he was basically always a gatekeeper/fringe contender, he beat the pretenders like Scott and Helenius but everyone who was genuinely good he lost too.

    Joyce by TKO, still better than Chisora...

    I was about to say that. Who has Chisora insulted so badly that they want to see him either kiilled or severely brain damaged? Terrible fight - Chisora needs to retire.

    Joyce looks crap in a lot of his fights to be fair. He took flak after his fights with Stiverne, Takam and Hammer because he is reckless and just walks guys down when he feels no threat from his opponents. Which is why people were surprised when he beat Dubois and Parker.

    He'll likely look crap in this fight too because he'll feel no threat from Chisora and just walk him down take numerous overhand rights while outworking Chisora before gradually breaking him down and then stopping Chisora and fans will criticise him because he fights down to his opponents level. But when he does step up again, don't be surprised if he again pulls out another unexpected win, while he's not on the level of the top guys, I don't think he's completely washed up either, he still has some good fights left in him.

    OOoofff can't think of many worse fights for Chisora. He's gonna end up badly on this path. I reckon Joyce crumbles him late and it won't look pretty.

    Terrible fight Chisora is clearly punch drunk and horribly shot he shouldn't be fighting, maybe like 5 years ago this would've been interesting but not anymore I have no interest in seeing this fight.

    Chisora is already damaged but is going to be a sorry sight in a few years. His license should be revoked.

    It's not so much that Joyce feels no threat from subpar boxers so doesn't mind getting hit to let off his shots it's just that he's not very good defensively and slow as a slug, he tried the same approach with Zhang and got sparked out

    Anyone who can hit or has a bit of speed/movement makes an easy nights work of the Juggernaut
