So what's next for Joyce?

Fight Hrgovic and see who actually deserved a mandatory.

 

From what I'm hearing he has a rematch clause, so he should use it and fight Zhang again, since Joyce is too old to start climbing again.

 

Probably the rematch although I think Zhang deserves a shot at Usyk now.

If not I’d still like to see him in there with AJ so AJ can leave no doubt and put an end to him.

 

I don't think he will take the rematch clause, its 50:50 that he loses again

He probably gonna fight another TOP20 guy

 

I think that if he takes the rematch he will regret.

Apart from fury and usyk (and zhang), I wouldnt put my money against joyce anyway.

 

I'll bet his jaw isn't quite as sturdy after tonite.

 

I thought Joyce looked awful, he was taken apart by a 40 year old. Joyce looked like a guy with 15 pro fights who had no answer for what he was seeing.

 

Since the fight was stopped before his chin was cracked, maybe the punishment was not enough for that. He can thank God that the fight was stopped.

I hope you are not right. I like joyce and I think he's an amazing fighter.

 

Make some money on domestic dust ups. Dillian Whyte or Chisora.

 

Wait to be cast in the next X men film.

But, when he loses again, it’s curtains on his name at the top.

He’s better to step aside, fight a Chisora level opponent (or Ortiz) and bounce back.

 

I hope he continues to fight the best available. He doesn't need rebuilding. He's to old for that anyway. Take the loss in stride and use this as an opportunity to become a fan-friendly fighter. By that, I mean continue taking on other top fighters. No clever match making, no ducking, or "tune-ups". Fight the best and fight often! The division needs more warriors and fewer businessmen.

 

He might need a tune up before going at Zhang again. Another loss to Zhang and he is done.
