    Joyce is too slow and stiff, Fury would box his head off on the back foot all night.

    I don't see anyone challenging a fit and motivated Fury tbh, he can adapt to all styles.

      Joshua fight will be dangerous. He isn't just a right hand but has a nice left hook and great uppercuts. Close to a 50/50 fight in my view

        It might be if Joshua didn't have a glass jaw.

          IMO people confuse Joyce's lack of speed with being " stiff ".
          The dude is 6'6" and can do a cart wheel without using his hands ?
          Takes some agility to do that.

          Oh yeah. Fury wins if they were to fight.
          But after a super tough test.
          Might even risk getting TKO 'd from a cut.

            He's not exactly a slick fighter is he?

              No. Not slick. But he's a Big athletic guy with some Agility.
              The whole stiffness thing might just be his style of fighting.

                Problem with Joyce is his age and where he sits in terms of rankings. The queue for a title shot is going around the block.

                By the time Joshua fights Usyk, he'll be 36. If we have 2 undisputed fights, he'll be 38 before he gets a shot at any major belt holder.

                I think he stops Fury but is stopped by Wilder.

                  Joyce is too stiff, Fury schools him.

                    He doesn't have a glass jaw just **** defense and head movement. He can take monster shots and still stay standing or recover pretty quick like vs Whyte and Klit. But he's there for the taking due to leaky defense and terrible instincts when he gets hurt.

                      Nah, it takes him ages to recover after he's been hurt. Whyte was too fat and tired and Wlad was too old & gun-shy to pull the trigger when AJ was ready to go.
