    Joyce and Zhang are overrated

    Zhang hasn't fought anyone except maybe an untested Hrgovic. Even that was an even fight. Joyce was simply Joyce. Good chin and stamina but slow and easy to hit. A good defense or punch is more effective because a fighter can only take so many punches. Myself and a few others said to not get excited about Joyce beating Parker. I mean Parker is Parker. Fury's punching bag in the gym.

    So are Fury and Usyk. Top guys dont fight each other as standard so we just never really find out whos who in the division.

      Ok, but Joshua, Wilder, Fury and Usyk are also overrated.

      Wilder is doing nothing he is glorified for being beaten by Fury. Fury is fighting English journeymen and UFC guys. Joshua is fighting fringe guys. Usyk actually got stopped by Dubois.

        Joyce was a live dog until Zhang beat him. I feel many avoided him. Joyce is by no means a great boxer but he found a way to win.

        The big boys will not want any of Zhang because he is high risk. Fury will continue to fight bums as always but claim he will beat Zhang and fight him when he's worn.

          Yeah, Zhang quickly gained some Joyce-level hype. And while Joyce has finally got exposed, Zhang should've been when he put Jerry "The Nobody" Forrest in a knockdown 3 times, but still didn't win.

          Let's see Zhang's next fight and his performance, at least he seems motivated and not wasting time.

            At least they fought each other, i enjoyed both one sided beat downs. Zhang is entertaining.

              I don't like words to say someone's overated. I need to see fury fight Zhang so I can see for myself.
              No wonder fights don't happen nowadays

                Zhang KO`s Usyk the same way he did it to Joyce. Strong left hand to the body and than right hook to the head.

                  Usyk is too skilled for that

                    Some Fury fans would rather credit him with wins he hasn't achieved than actually seeing him do it. After the first Joyce fight I was arguing with Fury fans that Zhang is a much more interesting opponent than Chisora or Ngannou if he doesn't fight Usyk but Fury fans were saying there is absolutely no way that fight should happen because "Fury beats Zhang easily" let's see him actually do it then...
