    Kabayel will completely school Joyce.

    Sounds like a plan.

    For once I don't think anyone would object, or at least not many. DDD is looking better with each fight but it's not that long since Johnson showed he still has a lot to learn.

    If Frank can match him against some guys with differing styles and he earns the belt outright in the process then that sounds like a good use of the next 12-18 months of his career.

    Possibly, Kabayel lacks power though so wouldn’t rule Joyce out completely.

    Did Kabayel not have a competitive fight with an out of shape Chisora?

    Kabayel schooled Chisora and Chisora weighed less for that fight than when he fought on the weekend. I think Chisora went in thinking it would be an easy night as Kabayel was a bit of an unknown quantity at the time but Kabayel's movement troubled Chisora who kind of gave up when the going got tough in that fight. Scorecards were kind to Chisora as well.

    Fair enough. I remember watching it back and Chisora looked dog**** but it was a while ago. Got the impression he hadn’t taken it seriously.

    He’s packed on some muscle working with David Haye.

    He was terrible. If I remember right Don Charles wasn’t in his corner was he? His attitude looked poor Thad night. You don’t know which Chisora’s going to turn up but he does look galvanised lately.

    Be surprised if this is made right now. Dubois has just took the British title and Joyce is breaking onto the world scene.

    Dubois looks a beast, real exciting prospect but I'm not sure it's wise matching him with Joyce right now.

    As much as Joyce isn't easy on the eye and looks like he's stuck in mud at times.... he's not 21 years old, he's a huge strong powerful heavyweight hitting his peak that's boxed at the highest level as an amateur, has already amassed a tidy resume of wins inside 10 pro fights and whom can take a shot as well as break people down.

    Dubois knocks him out

    Joyce was knocked unconscious in the amateurs and he wasn't young at the time. Someone will Crack him in the pros and I'd back Dubois to do it

    I wonder if Joyce would fancy it with Chisora now, 12 months or so on?

    Thought this myself. I thought at the time it was such a bad fight for Del Boy and he was right to avoid. But right now I’d make War Chisora favourite!

    Gaining traction after the weekend. S-Jam really pushing for it. Frank also said it would be a PPV.

    Its a smart move from frank. Joyce is a knockout waiting to happen. He,s one of them guys that wont fair well against a particular style...unfortunately for him dubois has that style.

    Still be surprised if warren risks dubois tho. I think frank will know its too high risk low reward for joyce. Would love joyce to take it tho.

    Joyce is fighting hook for the euro strap, doubt he’ll fight Dubois for the British unless warren puts his hands in his pockets which is doubtful
