People should keep this in mind before trashing him. 16 months and in his 8th fight he bludgeons a former "World" champion into retirement. Already talk about a fight for the WBA "regular" title in his next outing against Manuel Charr. The man is being fast-tracked and he has remained effective at all levels, against everyone put infront of him. Also, AJ and Fury to name but a few, have sparred with Joe and say he is a beast and a real relentless handful. So give the guy a break. The man is chasing a dream, and making the best of what he's got. Big up BIG JUGGERNAUT!
Mayweather boxing gym were known for notorious sparring, they don’t sugar coat anything at all.
And yeah I saw Kamaru us AJ and his sparring partners (Yeah they were more just playing spar). Not sure why? Maybe they are more into not getting cuts or injured etc
I am also not a fan of a high number of rounds, or constant sparring all year round 'Quality over quantity, sparring should be a like a real fight' I remember Chris Eubank Senior stating? that he took his worst beatings in the gym, the gym was where he learnt mostly 'He stated some fighters believe fight night is where you learn' I also agree with Eubank's philosophy.
I did watch a few gym spars in Mayweather gym, where they would do continuous rounds 'There was no such thing as 3 minutes rounds, it was just a continuous spar'.
What a complete waste of training time that spar was, between Joyce and Joshua.
There used to be a channel where, Mayweather would show the sparring in his gym 'That was real sparring what you can learn from etc'.
I always liked the way Adam Booth & Haye valued sparring partner, they would really go all out in employing the best.
Note: The UFC or Mixed Martial Arts worlds has even more useless sparring than in boxing.

Agreed. Either that or go home to your lovely families.

Soft sparring, I am not really a proponent of that type of sparring etc
You ether spar hard or don't spar.

You are aware that Joyce knocked AJ down heavily in sparring right?

That's a nice Joe Joyce avatar, boi!
Hah! My first thoughts as well...
I was considering changing my avatar to the picture of one of Joyce's final jabs landing... since I picked him to win and won a buttload of money (for me anyway) but didn't wanna look like a bandwagoner at the same time either.
ROFL. "Joe Joyce a gud boi. He yung doe. He just a kid at 33 years old."
Let's face it, he get's embarrassed by AJ and Fury, and Wilder catches the slow robot and knocks the autism out of him. He ain't special at all. NEXT!!!! UK hype job
That's a nice Joe Joyce avatar, boi!
Okay, the embedded video was a joke. If people could stop quoting me and acting like they've solved a great mystery, that would be great. I made a hilarious joke. The people who've quoted me thinking I was being serious should be ashamed. The ones who've quoted me thinking they're in any way witty, well... there's no help for those ones.
I really, really don't get the Joyce hate, he may not become a top champion but are you telling me he looks worse, less dangerous and skilled than Dillian Whyte for example? Granted he doesn't seem to have much defensively but with his strengths he should be a top contender for sure..
There is a massive difference in class between the top 4 of the division and everybody else. Whyte is Shyte too but at least he's battle tested and I think he'd have knocked out Stiverne way earlier.

Walking through anything Stiverne threw, and just bludgeoned him methodically until the ref stopped it. Stiverne couldn't get into the fight because Joe was stood in front of him unloading the whole fight. No respect for Stiverne's power. That was a one-sided beatdown. If that had been Stiverne vs. Parker or Stiverne vs. Pulev, or any of these other "top contenders", it probably would have went the distance in a dull clinchfest. Joe just let his hands go from start to finish and made it a thrilling affair.
BIG JUGGERNAUT has been known to have competitive spars with Tyson Fury. Fury being clearly the best pure boxer out there, with the best timing and foot speed, all that fancy stuff. And Fury himself has only praise for Joyce. Fury doesn't mince his words and has trashed many former sparring partners. I think BIG JUGGERNAUT is crazily deceptive, and a lot of you are in for a shock. As has already been stated, he handled AJ easily in sparring apparently. Walked him down and dumped him on the canvas.
Yeah and he looked every part of it. Slow, he plants his feet when he throws his telegraphed punches. He basically squares up and becomes stationary when ever he wants to throw.
Not that that's how either of them would fight in a REAL fight, I always like watching KD's.
Yeah I love knock downs as well, just wanted to see AJ on his behind. Especially with the poster accompanying his post with a sparring video and people replying to him and thanking him. I thought it was the KD video.
It's in the dream sequence part of the video. You have to use your imagination to view it.
What part of that was the KD ? I didn't see it.
Even the video was unaware there was a KD.
I thought I had my rose tinted glasses on, watched it twice so I don’t make a fool out of himself before asking that question. I was genuinely hoping to see the KD.
