Hopefully AJs team take Joyce as Millers replacement but we all know Hearn and Josh dont want that smoke. On another note, I would advise everyone here never to go on r/boxing , absolutely awful place like all of reddit. I suggested Joyce as a replacement for Miller and there were guys on there telling me Chisora would beat Joyce "Sorry, I just read what you said, Joe Joyce better than Chisora? LMFAO" "Joe Joyce would not last 6 rounds with Chisora" "By the time he's finished a 1,2 I could go do a full tescos shopping" "When he fought Stiverne I thought my TV was in slow-mo" "Even Allen would smash Joe Joyce lol" - I pointed out Joe Joyce KO'd Lenroy Thomas who beat up Allen twice "Doesnt dispute the fact that Joe Joyce is probably one of the worst heavyweights of this era" "Easy KO for Chisora" It's embarrassing, these guys have no idea what they are talking about and still talk like they are experts Chisora ducked Joyce TWICE because he himself knows he would suffer a career ending brutal KO in the first three rounds This content is protected
Hearn isn't going to risk his golden goose against JJJ because he knows damn well what JJJ has done to his boy in the gym. Those Reddit clowns are completely clueless, lol at the notion of Chisora beating JJJ.
This. IMO the wrong choice. Check all of Booths fighters over the years, all movement/agile kind of fighters, he cant do much with Joyce imo, no one could at this stage, he is what he is
Stiverne was subtly rocking Joyce with right hands, Joyce has a good chin, they were hard and he took them, but a combo or a left hook following what Stiverne landed, with his defence agility and hes going, way to upright and stiff. I think Chisora could hurt him with a hay bailer but again he cant follow up quick enough. Joyce has highlight reel ko written all over him
I know a few really good fighters that approached booth to train them but he declined. He wouldn’t have taken on Joyce without good reason. I think it’s a good move! Joyce might be a bit homesick so who knows? Joyce vs kabayal for the euro has been ordered and that fight in the states would not sell so this is better
Povetkin imo is the kind of fighter if he still got it, or has 6 rounds in him, that could rip Joyce's jaw off
I find Joe Joyce hard to watch, he moves as if he's underwater and I find it quite bizarre how he doesn't miss more with his telegraphed and slow punching style. He can bang though and so far, whoever has trained him, that has got him through fights.
Joyce does capoeria and is actually surprisingly agile for his size. Haye probably got him the booth gig.
