      Agreed, but he can't just sit about. He's gotta stay active against top contenders. Whyte/Joyce must be # 3 & 4 in the UK, so this fight sell's well & Joyce's belt's just give it a bit more credability.

        Takam or Yoka would be fine opponents for him.

          Joyce would utterly annihilate Whyte. He wont touch that fight with a bargepole.

              I'm cool with Takam or Yoka. Takam has seen better days but is still a tough opponent. I'd rather see Yoka vs Joyce. Rice, Allen, Duhaupas, Dimitrenko, Wallisch & Hammer are pretty decent wins to have on the resume through 10 fights. He took out Duhaupas in the first round which is pretty impressive even though he was in steady decline. I still expected Yoka to get rounds. I'm not sure who to pick but I know exactly what Joyce brings to the table. He has a non-stop engine, a solid chin & some decent pop. He beat Jennings & Dubois which proves he is a legit contender. Yoka has yet to step up to the next level & Joyce would be the first. I would say Joyce is the favourite but that is only because I haven't seen Yoka fight above C+ level. Hammer & Duhaupas are C+ level in my eyes.
