    He might well be Jim - hopefully promoters don't stop us finding out for sure next year. He seems the fittest and most durable, and at his weight every punch has an effect. Not many people knock Parker flat, whether it was one punch or simply broken down.

    If he can take wilder power he stops wilder. Fury should be able to out box him for 12

    Fury can't move like he used to for 12 and Joyce won't go away. In many ways he's a nightmare fight for Fury because he's not just hoping for a wild swing like Wilder and even Whyte did.

    I know fury is good for 12 but is he good for 12 with the juggernaut?

    It's a toughie, joyce is a tough tough night for ANYONE!

    Always said it.

    He's got the right attributes to become the best of the current bunch, that engine and chin are something else and he hits a lot harder than it looks I think

    A lot of appeal with Joyce too, there's no rubbish surrounding him, he's just a fighter, he doesn't pretend to be anything else and doesn't appear to want to get involved in any PR rubbish, refreshing, he seems like a decent guy.

    Yes. Bigger question is how would Joyce cope with Fury landing all night on him?

    Fury would not hack Joyce too tough and fit he would be on him hard 12 rounds

    Unbelievable chin. It will be found out eventually though in my opinion. For me he’ll beat Usyk and AJ I think he’d be able to walk them down to be honest with relentless pressure tiring them out. AJ will wilt and be stopped because of his poor fuel tank and Usyk will struggle with his size in my opinion and hang in there on points.

    Fury beats him for me. As does the one trick pony by using his one trick but I’d love it if he didn’t….. Saying that, if Joyce could avoid a clean one for 4 rounds I think Wilder would fall apart too!

    One-dimensional, not fast enough and letting a lot of straights and crossed to his head. He's yet to fight top 5, so I don't see him the best, but loosing to Fury and possibly Wilder.

    I would strongly fancy Fury and Wilder to beat him. Usyk too.

    I don't exclude Usyk as well, but give Joyce like some 40% of winning.

    Think he beats AJ and Wilder but loses to Fury and Usyk.

    He has a style which means he struggles with elite level boxers.

    Given the state of play right now. It’s unlikely that he gets a shot against AJ. But the Wilder fight is one that intrigues me and I think he would win that one.
