Who wins? I think Joshua wins by stoppage. Joyce's style of blocking punches with his face won't work against Joshua's power.
Joshua beats him by UD or KO. The thing is that AJ can dance circles around him or take him out if he feels confident enough. I am persuaded that from trio Hrgovic, Zhang and Joyce would be the most problematic Hrgovic for Joshua. Dangerous fight.
Hrgovic is trash. Robbed Zhang. That fight was only close because Zhang tired. Hrgovic ate huge right hands continuously from basic ***** Molina
Well you have a right for opinion, but if Hrgovic fight with Zhang again.... He will outpoint Zhang again. It doesn't change anything on fact that Zhanginky is super likeable character though.
Joshua would win a fairly dull UD. He's better technically and quicker than Joyce but rarely let's his hands go so don't think he would stop Joyce.
Always favoured Joshua. He went to the Olympics ahead of Joyce for a reason, their amateur bout was pretty one sided. Fact is Joshua was the best British amateur super heavyweight we've had since Audley, Joyce and Clarke are not on this level. So as damaged as Joshua is right now, he still murks them both.
I don’t know about that mate . I felt every time Zhang landed big shots on Hrgovic he reacted super negatively, turning away and such. If Zhang is unable to KO him Hrgovic stands a chance of winning by Zhangs inactivity. Otherwise if Zhang is able improve his stamina I don’t think Hrgovic stands much of a chance as Hrgovics success was only visibly when Zhang was gassed out
Both have probably lost confidence but Joshua could have the advantage as Joyce's last loss is fresher, Joshua could improve in the meantime so I would give 60-40 to Joshua, it would be a great fight between two struggling fighters with great amateur pedigree...
Ah, the battle of the carefully marketed hype-jobs. It's always been a fascinating matchup. Why hasn't it happened? Because both ducked the fight all these years to continue their carefully protected pathways! In fact, Big Joshie could have made this fight recently but had bigger bums to fry. Oh, say the fans, but they had to protect themselves as prospects, why should they fight? Groves and Degale did, before any had a belt too. Price and Fury were also much closing to making their fight than aj and joyce ever were. I think aj would probably win, however during that period when joyce still thought he was invincible and just beat parker, and aj was coming to terms with his inferiority to Usyk, joyce might well have walked forward and landed enough to make aj quit. And it's still possible for joyce to win I think. The reason is that both are hype-jobs so it might just come down to who is less overhyped on the night.
What You talking about xD Hrgovic outlanded Zhang in 9 of 12 rounds... Go check stats. If u said he got his moment only when Zhang is tired its looks like Zhilei was exhausted from round 1 xD Next time pls wear Your glasses when u watch boxing.
After Zhang took Joyce's soul and smashed his chin, there really arent that many top HW's that I would back him to beat now. You do not come back from that and fight again at a high level. AJ by UD.
