Joyce is slow of foot and it matters a great deal in this fight. Joyce has to find a way to keep on top of Wilder, whom happens to have very fast feet. Can Joyce take Wilder's punch? Can he stop Wilder from being able to be across the ring and pick his spots? Wilder's reach is such he can catch you with two steps across, virtually anywhere in the ring.
I see two possible outcomes: Wilder catches Joyce and Joyce cannot take the power. Joyce can either take the shot/ or make sure Wilder is unbalanced enough so when he is hit, it is not full force... then we have a fight!

Wilder hits Joyce - possibly breaking his hands in the process - and Joyce doesn't move.
From that point on, Wilder self-destroys à la Fury vs Wilder II. I see a similar outcome, Joyce just overwhelming him at one point.Comment

Joyce is a big sturdy heavyweight with some real strength. He could push Wilder back and I don't mean by bull rushing but behind his jab.
Joyce gets hit clean at times which does fall into Wilders favor. Overall though he typically has an intelligent approach in the way he moves around the ring if you actually take the time to pay attention to Joyce.
You also got to factor in that Joyce has Salas as a trainer and I am almost positive that Salas would have him as best prepared as he can be with a gameplan to neutralize Wilder and frustrate him.
All that said I could that fight playing out different ways but one thing that I do know for certain is that Wilder is not outboxing Joyce over the distance so in theory Joyce has more ways to win on paper.Comment
