Comments Thread For: Joe Joyce Makes Pro Debut, Stops Ian Lewison in Eight Round

[NEETzsche]

Exactly.

I thought Joyce got a bit better as the fight went on. I do think he was a little apprehensive with his shots and didn't fully commit to them but it was his debut against a tough guy who can crack a bit with his overhand rights, so he was bound to be a bit nervous/cautious.

Lewison actually come to fight too. Most debutants are in with guys who are turning up knowing they're gonna lose but get paid.

Yeah Lewison's guard was tight and he was rolling with punches until the end. Most debutants' opponents are just sitting ducks there to provide a highlight reel KO

Damn, that sucks. Hopefully Thomas shows up and the fight goes thru, Darch would be a decent last minute replacement I guess. Also, how can you not like the White Rhino, dude doesn't bull**** at all, but man he's in some ugly fights

ive piled in money on allen hoping somehow Thomas still goes ahead and fights, but I cant see how he still will. would give it 1% chance he does

great debut from joe....

Lewison had a busted eye, a busted ankle and his pants kept falling down. Any British heavyweight prospect from AJ to David Price to Daniel Dubois would have easily dealt with him. All Joyce showed was that he's competent technically, which you'd expect from a boxer with his amateur background, and that he doesn't hit any harder than Hughie Fury.

Exactly.

Joyce is a neat technical boxer but way too slow and at 32 years old, he doesn't have the time to spend a couple of years learning his craft in the Pro Ranks against lower level opposition.

Lewison was in the worst shape i've ever seen him and gassed after a couple of rds. Don't care he went 9 rds with Shyte, who isn't close to being world class either.

Joyce, Chisora, Shyte are all just British and Euro Level fighters and i would be 99% sure that 12 months from now, Triple D would ice them all.

I agree.

He looked relatively good under pressure, good pace from start to finish, a bit stiff but seems like he has great engine. All in all, a very respectable debut.

What's the name of this so I can look it up on YouTube

Now thatīs just rude, even I punch harder than Hughie. I think Joyce will be an entertaining Euro level fighter, nothing more. Simply too slow for world level, his WSB fight vs Usyk wasnīt even competitive.

funny how tunes have changed. before the fight people were saying 'oh maybe its too soon for lewison, very risky' then joyce wins every round, stops him and you guys still hate on him
