    It doesn't matter. The original point was about Joyce's chin and Joyce was a static target taking insane shots from Dubois all night and not being hurt.

    Dubois lacks a good defence, but he's got great power that hurts many opponents but didn't faz
    e Joyce.

    Parker has since changed trainers. I'm referring to Dubois' last fight. Logically speaking you'd compare the two's latest performance wouldn't you?

    So who has Dubois hurt? Oh right, nobody. And even if you want to use that fight as an example Dubois couldn't get past his glacially slow jab.

    The fact that Joyce is, in your words, a static target means he's going to fold as soon as he meets an opponent who can actually throw a punch. AJ and Wilder would both finish him inside of 4 rounds. Standing still and blocking punches with your face might work against other prospects, but not so much against proven heavyweights.

    Last performance? Personally i dont

    It has to factor in for sure, but its not a science

    I mean Parker for example has never knocked anyone of note out

    I wouldn't dismiss the possibility of him knocking out a top level fighter because of that

    Its just unlikely

    They know JJ will beat Parker that is why the fight is off.

    It's a pity Parker bricked it as it would have laid this question to rest

    Parker chasing the cash which is absolutely fine but i dont wanna hear all this stuff about Parker choosing this or that route to a world title

    Turned down 2 eliminators now

    Except the difference is I'm not claiming that Parker is a KO artist. You're arguing Joyce has a granite chin when he hasn't actually fought any decent, proven punchers.

    Parker will be looking to fight the "free agents" in the HW ranks

    Until he gets a title shot

    Well, Dubois has already been mentioned but you seem to disagree

    Boxing skill wise id understand , but his power is legit from what I've seen


    He also laughed off Stivernes best shots and he can punch

    Yeah, and I asked who Dubois has knocked out that wasn't already shot to bits. You didn't really give much of an answer there.

    But hey, I think we'll just have to agree to disagree. Joyce vs Parker is still a match up I'd like to see, let's just hope their promoters can sort it out.
