Was hoping he would feature on Chisora's undercard in a meaningfull fight. This feels like cab driver as an opponent, too small of a show. Hysa, Dacres, Chaney, Charr or EUC Xhoxhaj would be a hit, in this situation.
Joyce is having a run-out on March 1 and the plan is for him to fight Wardley in a stadium fight in the summer.
After they both have really low level tune ups lets see Joyce vs Wilder in the summer,,,What else do they have to do?
I don’t have a problem with Joyce vs Wardley in the summer but Joyce needs a confidence boost or a solid 10 rounds between now and then
In my hometown! I might actually swing by depending on the opponent as there is rarely boxing in my hometown let alone heavyweight boxing.
No doubt. Joka packs one of the worst glass jaws in today's HW division. He's another one of these no chin posers, like Fraudley " A Farce" Harrison - think because they had success in the amateurs, their fragile mandibles are gonna hold up in the pros. Nope!
I think Wardley will fight on that “Ring” card that His Excellency is planning which will be in London at the O2 in March. Looking at the WBA rankings, Pulev for the Regular Title seems likely for Wardley, but he could also fight for the European Title and feed Pulev to Itauma instead.
Joyce still has a position as an opponent. He's probably still serviceable against anyone top 15-25, even some 10-15. I still would pick Joyce to beat Ajagba for instance.
