Joe Joyce confirms ring return

I will never understand how any fighter can fight with a broken jaw. Ever. I’d never fight with one, I’d just hope it never gets broken. Getting hit on it over and over and trying to concentrate and throw your own punches? Wild.

 

Why is he sounding better all of a sudden? For a while he's been sounding really punch drunk in interviews, but he sounded like old Joe in that video. Hope it means his head is alright; man has taken A LOT of punishment.

 

Some guys recover the speech somehow. Maybe it’s speech therapy?

 

Well, looks like it won't last long.

 

He needs to start taking more PED's to get his game up.

 

Hergovic is built for Joyce.

Joyce is amazing against slow fighters. Joyce gets exposed whenever he fights someone quick (or someone who has a strong chin).

 

His Chin has been shattered. He needs to retire.

 

Still probably better than most of the division tbh. But Zhang definitely eroded it big time. How he quit in his last fight too is also a worrying sign.

 

He DID beat parker and dubois wasn't super slow either. When he was in his prime I felt speed didn't matter. If you were speedy, you needed awesome stamina to beat him.
I think Joyce was really good for a while until zhang came along.

 

Joyce is too slow, too old, bad defense, barely above average power. He should stay retired.

 

He is slower and older. He should retire. He won't go beyond gate keeper status.

 

Brain damage is what we like to correlate boxer's speech the most with, but truth to be told mental clarity and hence speech can be related to shitload of things. Reckon how many non-boxers seems to be foggy and mumbling on their off-days, during difficult periods etc.

 

Yeah but he's been hit in the head a lot of times.
