    Joyce vs Zhang

    This will be a fight! I'm not sure who will win on April 15ht. IMO Zhang has the power edge, the quicker hands, and he is a southpaw. Three disadvantages that Joyce who isn't fast or defensive must endure. We could see an upset here as Joyce is not a slick boxer or defensive. His chin is good but has has not been proven vs a true puncher which Zhang is.

    It'll be a good fight until Zhang gasses. Then Joyce will beat him up badly.

        Zhang managed to lose to a version of Hrgovic whose head wasn't even in the fight, and I don't rate Hrgovic much in general. I can't see what Zhang can do to Joyce. My money will go on the Juggernaut between the 8th and the 11th round.

          There will be few exciting rounds and the Joyce will seriously hurt Zhang. This is a fight i hope both could win

            I expect some good exchanges until Zhang gasses. Joyce by late round stoppage.

              I don't rate Hrgovic highly and I thought they looked poor against each other, even though it was an enjoyable fight.

              I'll predict a similar fun fight for this one. We might learn a bit more about Joyce's chin. And his power. But I expect Joyce to stop him somewhere between 5 and 9.

                I rate Hrgovic highly. Everyone is avoiding him! His heart and head wasn't in the Zhang fight. But skill wise, Zhang is better than Joyce and he will land. Can Joyce take it? Can he fight well vs a south paw?

                  Joyce late. Zhang might hurt him early but gassing out and then being bombarded by Joyce seems inevitable..

                    Joyce Gonna dominate, beats em all imo. Has improved like mad in his last 4 or 5 fights. If Dubois or Parker can't dent him, Zhang won't hurt him. Man had mad stamina and cuts off the ring with the best of them.
