Whatever Joyce once had has seemingly gone. Can’t see anything but a Hrgovic win here.

While I agree, I would say a chance exists that Hrgovic completely gasses before he can put Joyce away and turns into a punching bag. We have seen him fatigue in the past and this is pretty short notice.

A solid hw fight. The loser will be in nowhere's land. The winner probaby gets another good fight.

Thought Hrgovic had quietly retired. Interesting fight.

Good fight. If Joyce loses, that'll mean dropping 4 of his last 5. For Hrgovic, it'll mean back to back losses - which isn't the end of the world, considering Parker showed you can rebuild yourself after losing two on the trot.

Have to imagine it's make or break time for Joyce.

Much better opponent than the fraud PED cheat whyte. If Hrgovic was ever anything more than a hype job, he should win this.

I absolutely agree.

Joyce should be easy pickings at this stage of his career. His chin is cracked and his high output has waned a lot. He's a very stationary target and he's slow as hell. Seems to be beyond shot.
