    It's a tough one to call because I don't know how good Joyce is. Surley his jaw will crack eventually?

    I'm not feeling this one.

    Hopefully I feel different by the weekend, but I don't think this is going to deliver.

    Pretty much everybody’s punch resistance goes but Joyce is fresh and Paint Dry couldn’t crack open a tin of beans. Hopefully Joyce puts a hellacious beating on Parker.

    This is my concern. I lumped a reasonable sum of money on Parker to win on points at the weekend. Don’t really know why as Parker tends to disappoint and I’m a fan of Joyce, but just feel one of them has become vastly overrated and the other underrated.

    I’ve got Joyce on points. He will probably have to come from behind

    Decent odds mate?

    It's a tough one to call, I just hope Joyce wins as he's a nice fella and deserves a shot at one of the bigger names. Parker's a workhorse but hasn't impressed me so far, we shall see.

    Will watch this in a bar at the weekend.

    No idea how this fight pans out but every chance it could be another Parker stinker.

    Joyce relatively easily for the win I think. Parker is limited and has been dropped several times in his career.

    The whole top tier seems to have been shut off today and people with tickets up there have been informed their seats have been moved to ones 'closer to the ring'

    It did look like it had sold out as there were resales in most blocks. Be interesting what it looks like

    I'm backing Joyce to put in a good performance here and surprise a few.

    Yeah I think of the two Joyce is the hungrier and is far more spiteful than Parker when he needs to be. He did a gradual demolition job on Dubois and I wouldn't be shocked if he did similar against Parker.

    Really looking forward to this. Two HWs that come across well and who I rate highly.

    I want Joyce to win however if I was to predict a outcome I would say Parker to deserve to win but to get robbed by the judges.

    Expecting a narrow points win either way. Joyce is too easy to hit but Paker is vulnerable to the odd big shot.
    How much Parker can take out of Joyce early on could be key. He's not going to be able to back Joe Joyce up with a jab very often so he's got to land big shots when the opportunity arises.
