    Either 0-4 or 1-3

    He'd have a chance of beating Bowe and Tyson on his very best night.

    The Joyce at his best in the Parker fight was an absolute BEAST

    Perhaps a washed up and unprepared version.

    He might beat Lennox...yes, really. A remorseless, maurauding superheavy with a chin like a brick and a freight train engine. Sure he didn't have fight ending power but I'm reminded of the Liston quote, if he could touch you he could hurt you. Heavy handed every second of every round. If Lewis doesn't ping him early, the best version of Joyce wins a war of attrition. Lennie could be lazy and a little bit devil may care. Both of those flaws could cost him versus Joyce.


    Hey guys. What coulda been is always rosier than what was....

    Peace and love, Px

    I think he would lose to all 4 of them, but if I think he has the biggest change of winning against Mike and Bowe.

    Not very well, a fight with Bowe probably would've been fun for a bit though.
