    Joe Joyce, robbed of a gold medal and he's not had anything his way as a professional. Deserves a lot of credit. Never complained. Entertaining to watch even though he's very slow and offers his face as the target for his opponents.

    The first fight was conclusive. There wasn't any need to take the rematch.

    Only a matter of time. The difference was power and a little smarts to throw more sneaky blows. Dubois and Parker landed everything they threw on Joyce too.

    Zhang has to be the hardest puncher at HW

    Zhang was the boss, all the plaudits to Big Bang.

    Joyce was shown lacking, if he continues then it will be solely for the money, suggest he retires and keeps his brain cells intact.

    Fork sake! They picked one of the worst stylistic match ups for Big Joe out there for a voluntary, a 20st murderous punching skilled man mountain southpaw and they they di an immediate rematch with him after getting stopped in the first fight. Wish he'd never taken this fight in the first place.

    Feel so bad for Big Joe his team should never have allowed him to face Big Bang when he was already in the mandatory position.
