Does that mean he'll be stripped of his WBA regular belt?

Possibly. It probably depends on who wins the purse bid Dec 12th.

Glad to see Queensbury and Matchroom working together to get some fights on. Saying that, it's a walkover for Joyce. Prefer to see Zhang v McKean and Joyce v Dubois 2

Yeah I’m essentially hoping it falls apart tbh. I hope they keep Joyce active but I’d much rather see him fight someone who actually poses a threat.

It's killing you inside really isn't it

Looks like a sad little troll wants some attention in the post above.

Joe Joyce vs Zhilei Zhang is fight being rumoured for February 2023.

Easy work for Joyce if it happens, can’t say it’s a fight that I’m interested in.

That's a great fight. Two guys who always bring entertainment.

Joyce crushes him. It wouldn’t be competitive.

Nah, Joyce has zero defense. He'll take some huge straight lefts to the face in an action fight he eventually wins.

Joyce gets to him pretty quickly I think. I reckon he just steamrolls him.

Agree that Zhang couldn’t keep up with Joyce’s pace and he’d likely get overwhelmed into the middle rounds but he’s live while he’s in, don’t hate that fight.

Anything on McKinson likely opponent for the Bournemouth show?

Why Wood-Kiko and not Lara? Saving him for Warrington III if he gets past Lopez?

I think it’s just a tune up, I’m not expecting anything interesting. Hopefully we get to see him in with Marku or a Congo rematch in 2023.

Lara is gonna be an avoided fighter I think. I’m still not sure whether Team Wood have submitted the necessary medical documentation to support Wood pulling out of the scheduled fight in September. I get the impression they realised what they were up against and had second thoughts.

I think the end game will be Warrington vs Wood in the Spring/Summer of 2023. I really like that right tbf. They’ll sell thousands of tickets too.
