Comments Thread For: Joe Joyce Would Welcome An Anthony Joshua Showdown: "He Gets Bashed Up"

[Apollo7]

Joshua's head movement is on the level of a Dubois and he gases when he's not under the cosh so, I'd imagine Joyce would fold him like a deck chair.

I've never seen Joshua get jabbed to death like that. Could see him countering it well.

Joyce wasn't as accurate as you think he was with the jab in the Dubois fight, he landed at his normal rate about 15-20% he just throw so many that it seems like he's extremely accurate...

But let's not pretend AJs got elite head movement and I suspect AJ would try and counter him what effect that has remains to be seen...

Dubois just didn't seem to have a clue how to avoid it. Didn't even seem to make any attempt. The current version of Joshua is a smarter, more experienced boxer than that version of Dubois. Makes this an interesting fight imo.

I Agree but I prefer the idea of a Wilder fight I want to see the immovable object against the apparent unstoppable force.

Both Joshua and Joyce have good jabs and heavy punches , the difference that sets them aside is that Joyce has a better engine and chin.

That's a great fight too and again, almost impossible for me to pick a winner.

The world talks about joyce's chin but a real puncher like joshua who hits really hard and joyce who's there to get hit bouncing like a gazelle can be knocked out before 6 round joyce isn't usik I's usik would beat joyce he doesn't have enough talent to chase usik and usik has a better engine than joyce and he won't be a target like parker playing on angles and he is left handed everything changes boxing usik would beat fury , joyce, wilder etc the real king is usik as fury says he is just a middleweight but usik is even better than ali the skills pay the bills

Joyce is an interesting fighter. He's slow and there to be hit but he's a force with his pace, aggression and thudding power. I still keep waiting for that chin to fail him however....

The same AJ that beat Andy can beat Joe. Put them in a 24 foot ring and slow Joe will need a GPS to find him.

This is hard to call, with Joyce fresh off win it's easy to pick Joyce. But come closer to the day of fight after seeing face off, and eyeballing each other Joyce might show weakness like prey then you might pick Josh.
So it's hard to say now
