Joyce is a monster. It doesn't look pretty, but you can't argue results. He's really prepared to fight anyone. His Olympic experience as well as his stiff test in the WSB have prepped him to take on good talent. He should be in a rush. He looks to me to be a finished product. This type of super busy, face forward, aggressive style will not age well.

Joyce has fan friendly style. Let's see how he progresses.

Right now I put Demerizen in front of Yoka, Rivas, Kean and even somebody like Perez who has past contender status.

Joyce/Demerizeen is pick them fight. I would favor Demerizen because of his chin, hand speed and work rate.

Was always close when they met as amateurs. I would pick Joyce. He looks in better shape as a pro so far and fought better opposition.

Apart from 1st and second fight. They fought three times. First fight was slaughter, Demerizn messed him up badly. Second fight was closer but still Demerizen beat him at least on my scorecard. Third fight was a wider win for Joyce.

He doesn't cover up enough, I think he will run into something big in due time like in this fight:

Why is nobody talking about the Seferi brothers? Clearly these are Lions in waiting.

Bogdan Dinu is a guy who stands out to me. He's from Romania but has moved to the U.S. and will start fighting here soon. 18-0 with 14 KOs and standing at 6 foot 5. He's already rated #12 in the WBA

James Mckenzie Morrisson stopped Galen Brown in the 1st round just few days ago

Pretty frustrating how he taking the Wilder path, but even worse. At least Wilder fights fairly regularly. How about he and Pulev fight for the prestigious WBA Far South Eastern Europe Inactive Heavyweight belt.

18 fights in ten years with no real step up is so inactive that's it's pretty clear he's not a "full time" pro.

That guy not going to do much without total revamping.....it's like a comedic version of Tommy Morrison Sr.

It's like he's playing a skit. Lol

Interview from April 30:

Filip Hrgovic The heavyweight from Dubrava is rapidly falling into the boxing box

With Philip Hrgovic the boxer from from Dubrava, we discussed in Sesvete, ie in Novi Jelkovac. There, at the eastern entrance to Zagreb, a new hall is just being completed, where Hrgovic, once all the papers are readyhe will prepare for his next rival. There are not many. Anyway, the future hall already looks like there's nothing in Philip that's going to miss her.

In a very short period of time, the Croatian hardship has penetrated professional ranks. Former European amateur champion and bronze at the Olympic Games in Rio in just five months from the start of professional career has entered the world's top 40 heavyweight box on the Boxrec site. He won all four games, three of which ended with a KO. Only Sean Turner has endured the distance against Philip.

"But this man was built like a ice cube, almost no blemishes. It's low for the tough and thick, sturdy and hard to crush it. At the start of the match, I have estimated that it is pointless to score the knockout against him - commented Filip on the memories of the pleasant type.

You've pretty fast progress, in the top 40 boxers of the world there are only four of them, five of your years?

- Personally, nothing is in the top 40. You **** a man who's forty in the world in anything. My goal is much more ambitious. I was just like a kid with the biggest boxers - Klick, Haye, Wilder ... I've been boxing with all the best amateurs and all I'm talking about, I'm not saying no cover. My results speak for me. The best is coming, I'm worth much more than the top 40.

Unlike other stresses of today, your professional career began with some of the more serious boxers. This is not a common case.

- Yes, in the first match I was boxed against boxer with Anthony Joshua boxing in the 12th match.

Did you go too fast?

"I've been pretty fast because of my WSB (World Series Boxing) experience. This is my plan for my promoter, my manager and the whole team. Heavy category is on the rise and now is the time to do something. Now is the chance to make big money, now I have to be in the top, and my quality and experience in amateur boxing give me a good base. I'm strong, durable, ready and healthy. Even this four-man four-month pace, which is not easy for a professional, is not a problem as I've been boxing at WSB and more often with stronger opponents than now.

So, are you satisfied with the beginning?

- Yes, I win, I'm progressing.

What's the plan for, is there a fight for a smaller title already in sight?

"The plan is certainly to attack some title, intercontinental or European, in September in Zagreb. The Arena is already reserved for September 8, and the match will be 12 rounds. Before that I have one match in Germany, early June.

Do you think you can fill the Arena?

- As far as I'm concerned, no one has to come, I'll do my job. But I'm not afraid, my name will help fill the Arena. Much depends on promotion, television. In fact, most depends on whether the Arena will be reconstructed. I think boxing interest exists everywhere in the world and I think people in Croatia want such shows. For a long time we did not have a real boxer and in general our sport scene was a bit dull. It was great Janica, they were great like Ivanisevic and Mavrovic, the Cro Cop was on the way ... Something should be alive.

Big names. Do you see yourself among them - not now, but at the end of your career?

- Of course I can see. That's why I work so hard to be the first in the world. There is no stronger title than the world champion in the tough category.

Who will win between Wilder and Joshua?

- Joshua is a better boxer and he will get it. In the last match he did not celebrate the knockout as Wilder, but he was dominating all the time, Parker barely touched him.

What is your goal - to win the title of the world champion or to win the best boxers in the world?

- That should go with each other, but then you see how Parker came to the title with a victory against Ruiz, some Romanians ... Of course I want all the titles, but what does that mean if you avoid someone? I would rather share Joshua, Wilder and Ortiz than take all the titles if I had to make a choice.

In an interview for Sports News, you said that you would break up Joshua, who currently holds three of the four great titles and is considered to be the hardest hit in the world. Do you think you can really win it now, right now? How do you rate your chances?

- I really think I can beat that man. And if someone brings me in two months, I think I'd win it. And I'm not telling you to have anything to write. That's what I'm talking about based on my experience and career. That match will come for a year and then I will be even better and have even greater chances.

This guy is real good.

Power punches who are aggressive at top level are going to be problematic though...Sirenko over him as the top EU guy to watch for.

Hasim Rahman jr. Just kidding. The kid had an upbringing and a bit of olympic background. He's horrible. Terrible. Don't even got the physical will or natural abilities of his dad. It's too bad really.
