His slowness is also somewhat deceptive as he can break out of his rythtym quite unpredictably at times - whilst he may well be too slow for a master like Usyk, he poses quite a challenge for any of the other top 10 heavies IMO. Really looking forward to the Parker fight, where I think the Juggernaut will be the 1st guy to stop Parker.
It’s the way of boxing, especially with heavyweights. People jump on bandwagons and hop off when they get exposed. Even though he won, a lot of people who said Flip Hamburgers was the next big thing now have quietly moved on after his fight with that Zang guy. Joe really hasn’t done a lot, but he hasn’t been exposed … yet.
Let’s be honest all Joe Joyce is, is a slow plodding heavy handed guy with a good beard. The only reason he’s talked up like he is is because it’s a weak division and everyone wants massive paychecks these days. Does anyone honestly think Joe would have competed with a LL, or a Vitali, or a Wlad? Supposedly Fury and AJ boxed circles around him in the gyms. Look personally I like Joe and wish him well but let’s be honest he is extremely limited.
