    Joyce is strong with a good chin, but he's still a bit slow and plodding, showing his age and late pro status. Previously I would have said AJ Joyce was a good match up stylewise, before seeing AJ's woefully cautious performance on Saturday. Given that the Gypsy Fraud will continue to hide from Usyk, Joyce v Usyk would be a good next fight. Back in 2021 Both fighters signed their portions of a contract before the promoters, but as usual Fisheyes slipped out of his mankini into a pair of big boy pants and tried to haggle too hard and messed it up for everybody. He's the only block to that fight happening. Both Usyk and Joyce want it.

      Nobody is rushing to fight Joyce, it is Fury really who should be fighting Joyce.

      I have noticed the way Fury's hardcore fans, tactically put pressure on Joshua to fight Fury's nearest competition.

      They do this with certain fighters, Usyk, Joshua, Joyce, Wilder. They seemingly try and create narratives to use these fighters to protect Fury 'And demand that they must all ether fight each other, or Fury's nearest competition'.

      While Fury does what exactly? While Fury fights another ticking over fight while giving all these Heavyweights abuse.

      Tyson Fury is the only fighter right now primarily that should be fighting Joe Joyce 'Fury said it himself awhile back, he stated that he would fight Joyce'.

      Who is Tyson Fury fighting next guys? Joshua has just fought and won, Joyce is fighting Zhang.

      Who is Tyson Fury the WBC Heavyweight Champion fighting next?

        They all want to fight a mentally ***ed-up guy.
        Very tough people.

          AJ not retiring soon, so AJ v joyce can happen at some point within a year. Lots of good matchup possible, including Joyce v fury and wilder.
          This isn't necessarily a strong era of heavyweights as far as I'm aware but how come the matchups are so interesting? Maybe because not enough heavyweights are fighting each other so lot of mystery and intrigue involved

            If Joyce wins Zhang, he should get a shot at Fury or Wilder by the end of the year

              Joshua and Hearn are name dropping these guys, of course they're keen for the payday.

                I'm sure almost nobody wants to see a Joshua-Whyte rematch. Their fight was good, ended in a ko for AJ, conclusively.

                Joshua would beat him again, probably, even though he himself hasn't looked that good in a long time.

                Joyce, now that's a tough one for AJ. Joyce tries to wear down his opponent. AJ is now very cautious, maybe not the dog in him, or anymore anyway.

                  This would be an excellent fight. Does Joshua really want it?

                    They have been buttering up Whyte for Joshua and that is the next fight. Trash fight with no significance what so ever.

                      I'd be curious as to what this top5 you are referring to? It doesn't include Usyk? It does include Dubois? How?
