    Bit of a random fight but not a bad one. I pick Suslenkov via decision

    Joyce should call it a day; another stoppage loss on his record is not out of the question here.

    Can’t say I know much about Suslenkov.

    I see he scraped through a part timer in Mulowayi on points which is a bit concerning though but Joyce is way past his best.

    Team Juggernaut always!

    He’s linked up with Sugar Hill for his comeback. Hoping he can roll back the years for one last good performance.

    I like Suslenkov, he's talented but small for a 21st century heavyweight.

    So how long before he’s fed to Ituama? Surely they’ve considered him.

    Joyce by KO.

    People have written Joyce off but Suslenkov is not that good. He scraped by Michael Hunter, barely beat Mulawi, and is small for a heavyweight. Could see Joyce overwhelming him.

    Poor Joyce reduced to being an opponent travelling to Russia

    Gotta feel for him that he never got that title shot type pay day

    Joyce has only lost to one of the biggest punchers in heavyweight history and two top ranked heavyweights in close fights. I thought he beat Del and had the Hrgi fight on the last round. I think he might still have a big fight in him. Love to see him make an unlikely run at a belt. Lots of love and respect for the big guy.

    Gassiev (puncher not a good boxer) might lose to Yoka (boxer with a good chin and little power).

    Suslenkov (good boxer not a big puncher) might lose to Joyce (pressure fighter, good puncher, suspect chin).

    Yet Gassiev would KO Joyce, and Suslenkov would defeat Yoka by decision since he's a better boxer.

    So the matchups are not ideal for the two Russians.

    Gassiev only struggles against southpaws, he sleeps Yoka.
