    It was the Chinese food Johnny Fisher and his mates gave to Zhang the other day

    Beat Takam, Parker, Jennings and Dubois.

    All it takes is one clean punch to mess up someones eye.

    If Joyce was going to box like this he would have been better off not shedding off the weight.

    This place is full of nut hugging idiots. Especially ones that live on the Isle of Glass Jaw aka The UK.

    Hopefully this puts an end to the whole "Joyce knocks AJ clean out" bullcrap.

    Good win for Zhang, Joyce took the shots as expected but as tonight showed even if you can take the punches the damage accumulated can end it.

    Big set back for Joyce, he's not a young man and it will take him time to work himself into a position to challenge for a title again.

    Two judges had Joyce ahead after five.

    Do they have no shame ?

    Zhang did well to take it out of the hands of these incompetent / crooked (I can't say which) hacks.

    Zhang's jab was money.

    You can't stop a Juggernaut, but you sure can put enough dents in it to get it taken off the road.

    Fair dos to Zhang, to him goes the plaudits, job well done

    I think you speak for a lot of us. A heartfelt and happy congratulations for Zhang!

    For Joyce, hey, no big deal. You will have an easier time getting a big fight now.

    **** sake what an anticlimactic ending. I thought if Big Joe was going to lose it would be because he got clipped by something huge not on an injury. Crazy risky fight to take. A 20st slick southpaw with murderous power in both hands when you're a fight away from becoming world champion and may well have been elevated to full champ without even needing to fight again. Gutted for Big Joe but his team should've not let him take a risk as big as this

    Weak ESPN commentary.

    Joyce really didn't look the same man against a fellow giant. I guess that answers some questions about him. Still a top boxer but not quite at the level I'd thought he was at. No wonder that Hrgovic seemed to struggle against Zhang.
