I don't understand why Joyce came in light then stayed in the pocket exchanging, makes no sense. Only seen Zhang twice but I've been pretty impressed. He's a big old unit, heck of a jab, and quick. The worry with Joyce has always been how painfully slow he is, plus lack of head movement. Joyce just lost to the better man tonight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His best performance was against hrgovic last time out but he blew up later rounds,his power is underrated tho it had to be said,hopefully Joyce will have a hard look at his career because you can’t continue to get punished and try to walk through them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owl Visiting Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 Hate these rematch clauses. It just robs us of the division progressing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are his sons even more annoying than him? Special mention to the judges again. One Brit and two yanks, so of course no bias there against a Chinese fighter. One of them had Joyce one round up when the stoppage came Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe jordans teeth Posted April 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 I love buncy but to say nobody saw that coming is BS ,Parker landed numerous punches and he’s not really a heavyweight so to take the punches from a true heavyweight has shown his chin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyce said he might not bother with it, said that rematches often don't work out. I'd prefer him to have a domestic, the problem is despite him losing tonight I still can't see Eddie Hearn letting AJ fight him without any belts on offer. Dillian Whyte maybe? He's had his title shot now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This generation of heavyweights feels like it's running out of steam doesn't it? Almost all of them are close to retirement and there's too many egos behind the scenes stopping the big fights from happening. Promoters scared of putting their cash cows in the ring in fear of it damaging or ending their careers. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s sickening really.Fury really should of fought the 3 belt champ for 50/50 and AJ doesn’t want to get hit anymore,the only bloke who wants to fight all and sundry is Wilder but he can’t fight anyone at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, the sad middle aged get I am, I'm going set the alarm and creep past the kids' rooms to get up and watch it. They do start sleeping in at around 10/11 mate, promise!
