      I want Joyce KO Parker. But I think this goes to the cards.

        I’m excited to see this fight. I have been catching up on fights. Parker looked really good in that second Chisora fight. He couldn’t miss with that right uppercut. He was throwing the leather with all his punches. Mixed in a hard lead left hook & that uppercut was doing serious damage. That was the best Parker has looked in years. That handspeed is going to be a problem for Joyce. Joyce’s chin will be tested like never before. He took clean shots from Dubois but Parker is better skilled & has a lot of experience. I favour Parker 60/40.

            This is a great fight, a great clash of styles. I can`t wait. We will see if Joyce belongs to the top level.

              I just got charged the yearly price for ESPN + today was a lil annoyed but seeing them pick up cards like this on top of TopRank makes it worth it.

              Not to mention all the other content ESPN + has to offer

                I think Andy Lee has him fighting with a much better approach and style. Better punch selection, better balance. I may be in the minority, but I think Parker has pretty decent power. In the past, he just never threw multiple punch combinations or truly say down on the power.

                If Joyce can walk through Parker's punches to win that fight, I will be thoroughly impressed.

                  I’m not sold yet on Joe Joyce. To me, he is just far too slow, gets hit too much and has an awkward style. He does however have a solid chin and can take a whack. This is a decent step up for Joyce, however I wouldn’t be surprised if Parker beats him on points or even scores a knockdown along the way here, Parker looked very good against Chisora (who isn’t easy to look good against) and seems to have made some big improvements since training with Fury. However, if Joyce beats Parker I will then give him his dues! He should then be mentioned in the top 5 of the current heavyweights.
