    Watch it again. Holyfield threw a double hook. First to body then to the head. The body punch is what hurt Mercer. The first time he went down from a punch to the head was against Wlad @ 42 yrs old.

    Guys should've considered that when they picked Parker to stop Joyce.

    But, yes, thread is certainly a ways premature.

    The Juggernaut is not fitting enough

    The Adamantium Automaton

    Just relentless, never discouraged in the slightest. And his footwork is a hugely important part of his style - for such a big guy he moves really well and is excellent at cutting off the ring

    Saw an interview with Joyce where he said his bone density is 3-5 times more then normal from a bone scan he had. I’ll see if I can find it, I’m pretty sure it was on here recently.

    Joyce will be 38-39, Fury 34-35, Wilder 36-37, AJ 34-35, a lot will change in a year or two.

    Usyk, in my opinion hasn't the power to take down a heavyweight very easily. Stepping up to the division doesn't necessarily give him more power.
