Comments Thread For: Bellew Explains Why Joe Joyce is a Problem For All Top Heavyweights

[Stuntman Mike]

Man I can't wait for Joyce to obliterate Joshua, you have never seen a fighter at this weight with this engine and the chin is atg the best chin to enter a boxing ring

We are talking an Ali level chin here people

He doesnt feel punches he said last night he didn't even know he was getting hit he credited his defence because he doesn't feel it

joyce will walk through any heavyweight today

And everyone talking about angles!
when Joyce is close and they try to make angles he delivers devastating bodyshot uppercuts the same time they make openings

You all need to go back and revise the fight the guy is no joke

and Joyce is sneaky look how slow he is throwing that jab out and that right hand then go and watch when he actually hurt takam...he can turn up the speed and heat whenever he wants and that fuel he has is unlimited, he can go full turbo for 12 rounds and I believe you will see some of the best tall pressure if he does get in the ring with any of the top 3

The same people faking confusion at Bellew's conditioning comment are the same ones who claim Joshua ran for 12 rounds against Ruiz.

Which one is it? Does he run for 12 rounds or does he gas after 1? It can't be both.

Or do you just disagree with any complimentary statement on Joshua because you're convinced that the unified heavyweight champion of the world is a bum?

If AJ fights the same fight he fought in the Ruiz rematch he will easily outbox Joyce.

Believe you me that Bellew is another Captain Obvious…

[KingGilgamesh]

AJ is best conditioned he said, I want to Joyce take combinations from AJ or taste the detonator from Bomber. Then come back n tell he can take punch. Joyce is poised and slow with no fast combination

Honestly I can kinda see Joyce beating both Wilder and Joshua. I need to see either against a decent pressure fighter. Wilder crumbled when Fury took the fight to him and I'm not sure how Joshua fairs against good pressure either.

Looool

Ruiz was a 280lns fat sausage whose 5ft11 in that fight.

Joyce is the same height and has great footwork which is what makes him seem so unremarkable. The fact people think Ruiz second fight gives any kind of inclination as to how Joyce and Joshua would fair is bonkers.

I partially agree with Bellew but Ajs stamina is not an issue when he fight's all these 38-41 year olds (4 of last 6)who are slow & shot with 4-5 rounds in them or a super obese Ruiz standing still.
As a meat head against Klitschko only age beat Klitschko that night not Aj, when Aj punches in bunches he gasses & he was done in the 5th but Klitschko got old.
When as the leaner boxer Aj almost put away Pulev in i think the 3rd he had to take a round off because he still gasses & when he isn't given time & he's preasured he'll gas again.

Fighting Joyce Aj will be on the back Joyce on the front foot & it'll be a battle of the jabs both occasionally landing bombs, then it'll be battle of the chins & i know who my moneys on.

Exactly
4 of AJ's last 6 have been 38-41 slow & shot
Wilder had Stiverne and twice Ortiz.
Aj & Wilder have both been happy milking casuals and fighting old men. Ajs still never boxed a top 2 heavyweight & don't say Klitschko, he was unranked in tbrb from the December before he boxed Aj.

Ruiz was number 1 when Joshua beat him. According to the very TBRB rankings you reference.

As for Klitschko... TBRB removed Klitschko because he didn't have a fight booked after Fury dragged out the rematch. Except he did have a fight booked and Joshua/Klitschko should have been ranked the top 2. As they were straight after the fight.

That's why TBRB's championships lack as much credibility as any others. Joshua is logically their champion, but they can't admit their mistake.

And Joshua/Wilder were top 2 most of that time. Hard to fight a top 2 guy when you're one of them and the other is Deontay Wilder ducking every offer you send.

There's no debate over whether Joshua was trying to make those fights. It's all out there now. Wilder admitted it. Fury admitted it.

[VislorTurlough]

He’s right about Joyce stamina. But no interview with Bellew can go by without a handjob for Joshua.
