just a thought of this fight and found it quite interesting lets say they met in 2 years time who would win, 50/50 fight for me and would be entertaining so who do you lads think would win?
Joyce, far more pedigree and experience... In 2 years I’d expect JJ to be world level where as DD won’t be...
Still hard to determine how good Dubois will be but he's ridiculously good for his age and has mad potential At this stage I think DD would ping him about early doors but Joyce would grind him down as the fight wore on. Purely gauging that on age and experience though.
Really, really hard to judge with Dubois to be honest. I'll say Joyce for now as it seems the logical pick with less conjecture around it
Dubois' potential I believe is greater than Joe's considering the age gap. Having said that Dubois simply does not have the experience for me to believe he'd be favoured to beat Joyce even in a couple of years time.
Dubois is an unknown quantity. He’s just a big massive lad fighting tiny fellas and KO’ing them. Get him in with British title contenders and see where he’s at. I know Joyce is a lot older but it’s telling where they’re both at at the minute with him jumping straight in against Lewison. Would frank make that fight for Dubois? I doubt it. Maybe after Joyce has dismantled him and another 8/9 months down the line.
Even in 2 years time, Dubois will only be 22 & still being brought along slowly by fwank probably somewhere between domestic & euro level, where as Joyce will be at his peak & judging by his debut will be knocking on the door for a title shot or be a title holder, so i'd have to go with Joyce. Maybe in 4 years if Dubois has improved enough & reaches his potential, he could be at world level & Joyce would most likely be on the decline, then maybe Dubois would be the favourite but theres alot of maybes in that scenario, Dubois doesn't look that special to me, he is very raw but very powerful.
Joyce is better now and will still have a bit to develop, he's now pro and gonna be fast tracked so in 2 yrs he will get some good competition and learn a lot. From what I remember Joyce had good stamina in amateurs so if he's able to go 12 rounds at a good pace he has a good chance of going far simply cos his power seems ridiculous Dubois at this rate isn't really progressing like he could be, he's not being tested in pros and with the UK hw scene active atm idk why theyre being so slow with getting him a decent fight ..
