Joyce will win by UD

Ooh, i cant wait to see the juggernaut **** parker right up tonigjt, watch the state of him when the ref jumps in to stop this one tonight!

 

Parker has to do only one thing to win and that's not gas out

will be funny if Joyce actually picks him off early doors.

 

Ref stoppage would be sufficient.

 

I think Joyce gets a decision. Parker is pretty iron chinned and can get his track shoes on to lose a decision when necessary.

 

I think Joyce can stop Parker late. Not convinced about Parker’s desire.

 

Yeah, that's pretty much what's going to happen. Parker has a Samoan jaw so he's not going to go down (or not going to stay down if he's dropped) but in every other aspect he's going to be dominated. People are looking at Joyce's slow hands and thinking how on earth he's going to win. It's because he'll be throwing rhythm breaking, off kilter shots all night long, and not giving Parker a chance to settle or throw anything of consequence. Parker might look good in spots, early on, but as the fight wears on he's going to be shelling up more and more as the juggernaut express chugs into gear.

 

His hands are faster, but his feet are slow and his footwork in general very rudimentary. He's also totally predictable with his attacks and always telegraphs with little step in jabs before throwing his combinations. Joyce on the other hand has a totally rhythm-breaking style, punches from all odd angles while constantly on the move, and has extremely developed ring iq and ring presence. If Parker had fast feet, great timing and great lateral movement to go along with his handspeed (ie if he was Usyk) then Joyce would be in trouble. But relatively stationary, upright, predictable punch flurries while falling into a clinch aren't going to be much of an advantage for Parker no matter how fast his hands are (and his handspeed has slowed in recent fights).

 

Neither could Paint Dry aka Sloth.
