    So Usyk should tell Hearn to pack the Joshua fight (with the belts and a HUGE payday) in his a$$ so he can fight Joyce for no belt and 10% of the money he'll make vs Joshua? Replay that in your mind...............it'll come to you..........that's right, totally ******.

      I'll believe it when I see it. I have a doubt Ruiz will take that fight right now in his comeback trail. He probably fights an easier fighter before trying to land a Joshua/Fury/Wilder fight.

        If he slows down much more he'll stop completely.

        I don't think Joe is dependent on speed. He'll just keep coming with his efficient jab and ridiculous resilience. There's a few years left in that approach.

        Right now, you don't risk Joe taking a points defeat. He's in position to challenge and he's a chance against anyone.

          I think they will struggle to get him big fights. He's a tough nights work for anyone, plus the title picture is crowded over the next 12 to 18 months so if someone takes him on and beats him they still won't be rewarded with a title shot any time soon.

          it will be someone outside the top 10 that they can bring over on the cheap

            Joyce needs a big fight soon as he's aging, which is why the legit guys in the ten and champions won't give one. Boxing right now sucks.

              I didn’t learn anything from the Dubois since he didn’t do much apart from sticking out his jab against a novice who hasn’t really been tested.

              Or if they can get him in there against Whyte or Chisora. Parker also won’t be a bad choice.
              He's already beaten Hrgovic in the WSB. I like the Pulev fight, I think it's a reasonable test as one guy is on the way up against a decent guy who is fading. Think Joyce would beat him up but it's a fight worth making.

                he strung joe along, he could have had both fights done this year but he know joe would have knocked him out. joes not the raw amateur that usyk fought, hes a rolls royce of a heavyweight and he would have broke him down. long 12 rounds with joe coming forward, with a jab that breaks eye sockets, best shots just bouncing straight back off him
