    Joyce was hit way too much by some low level bums like Wallisch or Hanks. Stiverne landed several right hands and hooks too. Jennings hurt him badly to the body in R1. Joyce is there to get hit so the main question is if he can take a good shot from Dubois? If he can take it, it could be interesting. If not, he'll brutally ko'd inside 4-5 rounds. If he can take a shot, and he'll be able to take Dubois into the second half of the fight....i can see him grinding out a decision here.

    I bet on Joyce by KO. I think he'll run through Dubois fairly one-sidedly. Dubois is going to be swinging hard early doors, but Joyce's jab to the body and head is going to disrupt him and have him swinging at air. Joyce then picks his shots to unload on Dubois in close who looks uncomfortable with the physicality. Ref warns Joyce for hitting behind the head or some BS which Joyce totally ignores and goes back to work. Dubois starts to unravel and eventually gets caught by a big clubbing shot that has him desperate to hang on. Joyce bullies him off and starts clubbing him to the arms, head, anywhere that's available. Ref jumps in to buy Dubois more time, but Joyce is indefatigable and clubs Dubois to the canvas. Ref eventually sees enough and jumps in to wave it off.

    I'm going to look like a genius if any substantial part of this post comes true. :D

    I would rather Dubois win in a tough, gut check kind of fight so that the hype train has a bit of a wobble and he realises he can't t just rely on his power and consequently develop into the full package. Joyce is late prime at best and for me should have been beyond the likes of Dubois and tackling top 10 fighters by now if he truly believes he's a world champion in waiting.

    I like both of them but think Dubois has a higher ceiling and a more ambitious team behind him.

    Joyce, and it's going to be far more easily than most of you are prepared for. Like a steamrolling.

    Dubois probably deserves to be favourite but only narrowly, the prices doing the rounds are ridiculous IMO, Joyce well worth a punt.

    Been back and forth many times but in the end I'm going with Dubois. But I have had this kind of feeling about a fight before and most of those ended up being completely wrong so it will probably be Joyce by early KO.

    Dubois will wipe the floor with unskilled Joe Joyce.

    Unskilled? You mean, the far more skilled, but you're simply incapable of processing it.

    Joyce is a bum. No head and foot movement. He was terrible against Jennings. Sergey Kuzmin destroyed him in ameteurs.

    Joyce won't see round 5. Dubois will KTFO Joyce at round 4 at the latest.
