    Bravo. Joyce isn't very defensive, and will probably get stopped vs a skilled top ten level puncher, but man he's got an attacking style to the body or head. Joyce can punch. Fighters or most of them in the amateurs had trouble dealing with his physicality and mindset.

    If managed properly, he can get a title shot. But most outside the top ten, in fact, ALL title shots given by Wilder and Joshua at this point in time were vs top 14-50th ranked fighters!

    Now, if only Hrgovic can join him in the pro ranks.

    I'm really happy about this, I don't think he has the talent to go all the way but he has the talent to make some noise and be a fun heavy to watch on his way up!!!

    Deserved the Gold medal over Tony Yoka. He seems pretty cool, he has a Foreman esque size about him.
    I don't rate him as highly as I would've liked to, though.
    I feel like the only decent pro prospect would've been Majidov but he has retired.
