Comments Thread For: Joe Joyce Says He Could Fight Gerald Washington On Wilder-Fury

[Rip Chudd]

This would be by far the best fight on the undercard

[Boksfan]

I 100% agree. It's time for him to step up his level of competition in order for him to gauge just where he is in this Heavyweight division. His handlers and especially the fans need to know whether or not he is the goods or not. Therefore, a Gerald Washington is not only a good match up for him but also a good test for him as well.

You flip flop your opinion like a dead fish.

That's because I didn't know the dude was 43 years old. If he doesn't get his chance now then when?

Also he would mop the floor with someone like Washington but it looks like they give him Hanks instead to stay in line with rest of this mismatch undercard.

I think AJ got the nod for the 2012 Olympics so JJ had to wait an extra 4 years for his shot. He also did some other random stuff in the years he could have turned pro

Thanks for the info.

Go get punched in your head and face by Wilder and tell me afterwards once u quit r get ko. Joyce needs to prove himself in heavyweight it'd be decent win heavyweight needs better quality n depth can't wait for ursyk to move up to heavyweight

The problem with this announcement is it says could, don't say it unless it's confirmed. Saying that if he does its definitely a step up in competition and will tell us where his at as we found out about Dubois against Johnson where he got the win but not the stoppage when stepping up in class, and taking care of business. This will tell us if Joyce is really going to be ready for a world title challenge in the next 24 months, we wait and see.

Joyce beats him in 3 rounds now will be a top 10 hw reckon he beats Miller breazeale the yankee crap out there right now quite easy

[sayf]

No Joe Joyce is not ready for a Gerald Washington. He needs more experience. Washington is a title contender. A lost to him would set his career back big time.

That's exactly what he needs, he doesn't have time on his side.

The honest truth is, if he can't beat Washington he may as well give up now, because Washington is levels below even someone like Whyte, who is levels below Ortiz, wilder and Joshua.

Joyce is 33, if he is not ready now he will never be. Washington is nothing special, he is somewhere on Szpilka/Wach level.
