Joe Joyce vs Chisora prediction thread .....

When we look at everything, Joyce should win without any problems, UD for Joyce.

 

If this was the Chisora that fought under Haye then yes I would be picking him to potentially get the upset stoppage here. I can see why Rummy has gone with Chisora here for the upset. After all Joyce is old, slow, and has suffered two brutal stoppage losses in the last 3.

But although Chisora will land big on Joyce and hurt him. I just don’t see Chisora having the output and the fitness to get the job done. Joyce ultimately dominates the second half of the fight and wins a decision here.

 

Chisora will have some success early with OH rights as Joyce will show little respect for Chisora and try to simply walk him down. But Chisora will get out worked and after a few rounds will end up on the ropes a lot of the time, trying to roll with shots and will fight in spurts and hope to catch Joyce with something big. Will probably be similar to Chisora/Takam but I don't see Chisora landing a huge shot to end it this time. Joyce breaks him down and stops him around the 9th round.

 

sounds about right, i think we will see chisora do that weird thing where he walks into a corner

 

They're both punch bags - Joyce because he has no defence and Chisora because he's shot.

They'll both get hurt unless it's stopped early.

And Chisora might not be very bright, but both in and out of the ring Joyce makes him look like a Mensa candidate.


Joyce should win this with the state Del's in, but I'd love the old warrior to pull it off.
On the flip side, it's hard to tell just how bad Joyce is now, though - I can't say either winning would shock me.

Both should retire, really, though.

 

Chisora has a knack of pulling out these wins. I wouldn’t be surprised if he wins, he’s kinda due.

 

I think this one will be a tale of two halves with Chisora landing big right hands often in the early stanzas, then Joyce coming on strong from rounds five or six onwards.
For me it comes down to whether Chisora can do enough damage early to stop Joyce. I believe he definately had what it takes when he was at his best, but those days seem far in the rearview mirror to me.
Joyce - TKO - Round seven or eight.

 

Joyce looked terrible against Kash Ali.
Based on some pictures, he doesn't look in very good shape while Chisora is in the best shape I have seen for a while.

On the other hand, Chisora has 13 losses and also didn't look great in his last couple of fights.

I think this will be a close and competitive fight but am definitely picking Chisora for the 'upset'.

 

That reminded me of some old dog crawling to its hiding place to die.

 

I was on the Joyce side mainly due to Chisora's age until I saw Rummy's video and it gave me pause. Joyce looked hideous against Ali and Chisora does know how to throw an overhand bomb which at this point can't miss Joyce's head. Am I absolutely certain? No , Chisora is a dinosaur but there's enough going on with Joyce to make me think it's possible and I plan on checking out the odds here to make a bet. I'm guessing there's some money to be made taking Chisora.

 

Joyce should win, but rooting for Big Chis as I do every time

 

Chisora in his prime I agree. Now it's a crapshoot. Chisora is worn down from a long career and Joyce looked terrible against Ali after likely being ruined by Zhang.

 

I can't shake the feeling that Joyce is done. He's no longer in title contention and looked like hot liquid garbage his last fight.

If Joyce is fighting solely for money then Chisora, however unlikely, might be able to pull it off.

 

Joyce by stoppage.....................and I believe this fight shouldn't even be sanctioned.

 

Joe jabs his head off unless he's shot physically and mentally and gets into a tussle taking overhands from Dereck for fun.
