    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.

    I thought Joyce was your #2 behind the fraud Fury?

    Not really. He's still **** and Zhang is still ****. Joyce's eye going is the only reason Zhang won here, he was clearly fading and Foster again, proves to be a shithead.

    To be fair, his stamina didn't look bad in this fight. Pretty much anyone is going to be inactive compared to Joyce. I agree with you of course, but his conditioning seemed decent this fight.

    I was fooled by Joyce's chin man. He's not a very good fighter at all, I though he was more of a threat in the HW division.
