Comments Thread For: Joe Joyce To Joshua: You're a Glass Cannon, Quit The Act, You Were Given Everything

[KingGilgamesh]

It's difficult for me to think of an easier style for AJ to look spectacular against than Joyce.

Joyce is just so slow and hittable, he's looked great so far vs non punchers and Novice Dubois but AJ would land combos at will, and I don't care how good Joyce's chin supposedly is, if AJ can tee off on you with any sort of regularity you are done.

People hate AJ for some reason but come on, the opponents he struggles with are short, fast handed guys when's he ever had issues with a big slow plodder.

This is an example of people falling in love with an 0 that has barely been risked. AJ stopped Joyce in 1 round in the amateurs and Joyce was always the #2 behind AJ despite being 6 years older than him.

Joyce was also knocked out properly in the amateurs as a grown man in his mid 20s, he can definatley be cracked, he already has been, but yall don't know that because you don't know anything about boxing.

I've always thought you're a ****ing idiot. And this comment proves it. Cross combos at will only happen when your have faith in your chin, which Joshua now has none. We saw him hesitant with anything more than 2 hitter combos against ****ing Pulev of all people but yet somehow he's going to go for broke with someone as heavy handed as Joyce? The moment he feels Joyce's hands hell becomes tentative again and gas from his fear of getting hit flush.

Beating a Joyce in his first fight in the ammys and beating a silver (actually gold) Joyce are entirely different things. Lol what next predicting Whyte could beat Joshua in 2016 because he beat him in the ammys??

Joyce beats the crap out of bodybuilder. Bodybuilder is mentally finished.

Matchroom Incels can’t seem to wrap their heads around Joshua decline. It’s hard letting go

Yep ****heads like Earl-Hickey. ****ing fat clowns who've never stepped foot anywhere near a ring. If there is anything more horrifying in a heavyweight its a guy with good stamina and a come forward style. You have to have great movement and committed jab and good clinch work and a certain fearlessness, three qualities Joshua has been lacking for some time.

Watch Usyk vs Chisora for a great example of how to fight a tough come forward fighter and win convincingly, especially whilst lacking the size and reach advantages...but people legit thought that performance was somehow Usyk looking bad.

Joyce imposes his will and jab. By late rounds opponent is busted up with low tank. Funny the same Brit nationalist fans here dunk on Joyce, Dubois, Fury but give fellatio to Joshua & Whyte. Hmmm. Couldn’t be Eddie, could it?

[REDEEMER]

He quit, he wasn't interested.

Now obviously **** happens but I need to point stuff like this out to these idiots who have no knowledge of anything that happened in boxing more than a year ago that didn't involve Mike Tyson.

If A.J defeated Joyce the same posters claiming Joyce is a top fighter would call him a slow robot .

Joyce stamina may be great but punches take stamina out of you ,posters acting like he’s just going to keep punching effortlessly fail to acknowledge that . Joyce has never really been hurt besides the Jennings fight but like the Kuzman one caught him off guard . If A.J had been hurt by a body shot against Jennings the forum would never live it down .

A.J vs Joyce will be a good one if it happens but Joyce cannot be put as the favored when A.J has not lost to anyone like Joyce , a great timer but slow and defensively open fighters aren’t going to win its a perfect opponent for A.J .

I might stand corrected in this one. I’ll have to admit that he’s not the same fighter as when he fought Usyk and he’s improved tenfold. Joyce is a problem for all the heavyweights, except for Fury.

I think fury would have to be careful still, I rate joe, if Joshua actually stopped him in 1 round of a pro fight, I’d give him his props. I don’t see it happening, although Joyce being “robotic & slow” is the only category of fighter Joshua can genuinely compete with now.

That truly elite level is too far for AJ. No shame in this, he’s at a level many won’t ever get too. Sometimes people see the big crowds and just assume that correlates to him being outstanding in the ring. He’s Vulnerable and that’s what makes his fights have an element of Surprise & entertainment. Joshua downfall is his habit to do everything textbook perfect. It always will be.

[RoadMan94]

JJ should just take his phone away from Sam Jones.
btw, what's San Jones got to do with JJ? Didn't he leave S-Jam for Kinahan, I mean, Probellum?

Sam works at Probellum. Probellum promote and Sam manages. Many fighters have a manager and a promoter. Nothing extraordinary. But you’ve blocked me for exposing you, so it’s likely you won’t see this! Nvm, I still decided to post.

Will Joyce be able to walk through AJ's shots the same way he did with Dubois? Has AJ got the feet, engine and work-rate to box and move for a Ruiz 2 type of performance? Will he be able to maintain that distance or will Joyce be able to cut him off (how Ruiz couldn't in the rematch) and work behind his underrated jab to slowly break AJ down by also targeting the body early? It's an interesting fight that I'd like to see. Get that **** on

joe knocks him the **** out. but joshua the glass cannon will never fight him.

I actually think Joyce would struggle against some of the small heavyweights rather than tall ones, with the exception being Fury.

His fight v Jennings showed me that shorter fighters could have success. Jennings even hurt him the body. That was a faded Jennings too. A lot of big heavyweights don’t enjoy fighting small heavyweights, especially some that are ex Cruiserweights like Michael Hunter, they can be difficult to get to grips with at times.

Joe Joyce v Hunter would be a good fight actually, although Hunter didn’t look great last time out. Stylistically I think he could frustrate Joe Joyce if Joyce struggled to pin him down early.
