    Still not a sell out.

    No way MR would have expected tickets to be on sale for more than 2 hours

    Tbf he said he wanted dough to help his family, friends, various causes out. Said he’s not around enough to help out with day-to-day things so that’s his contribution…

    They already fought in 2011 in the ABAs, Joyce was stopped in the first round.

    They've also sparred eachother quite a few times, Joshua had no problems.
    Still would be a good fight. People on here are just jumping on the bandwagon of hating Joshua.

    "First they love you, then they hate you, then they love you again"

    totally. I don't have massive opinions either way on him, I think Fury would beat him, it just makes me laugh when people make out he's worse than a one-legged journeyman.

    So what? That was 12 years ago and Joe was making his debut.

    Incorrect. He was making his senior debut, he'd already won the novice ABAs. And in terms of "so what", the commenter said Joyce would easily beat him, my response was to point out they had fought and Joyce lost quickly.

    See what I mean. The guy is such an idiot. He just tries too hard to act smart. Just be your natural dumb self like most other boxers are.

    Someone like Isaac Lowe. He doesn't hide his inability to structure sentences correctly or get the spelling, grammer or punctuation correct. He doesn't hide his lack of social skills either. What you see is what you get with Isaac.

    Joshua though, tries to play up to the smart, suave, corporate, black, businessman image, far too much. The guy thinks he's Jay Z. Give it up idiot.

    Joshua best stay away from Joyce. Pretty much a death sentence for his career at this point. Joyce is too good. Physically he's so superior to Joshua and his chin is incredible. Would love to see it.

    Kuzmin stopped Joyce too. And Whyte beat Joshua in the amateurs. I dont read too much into what happened in the amateurs. If they fought now I'd have Joyce as massive favourite. His style is horrible for somebody like Joshua.

    Is their fight on you tube at all though? Would like like see that.

    That doesn't mean anything in regards to if they fought now. I don't know why people even bring this up.

    it matters more than someone saying Joyce will smash him with no evidence other than they hate AJ. I bring it up as it happened and AJ won, it's a fact. Although not one you like.

    there's a vid of Joyce talking about it. I'm no Joyce basher, I think he's brilliant and may well beat AJ, Joyce has a chin of iron and never gets tired. I just think AJ is not rubbish.
