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

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Joe Joyce is busy sparring against an even bigger opponent than the one he thinks he'll box next. England's Joyce told Sky Sports for a story posted to its website Wednesday that his handlers are in negotiations to fight Gerald Washington next. The 2016 Olympian, who's sparring regularly with Tyson Fury in Big Bear Lake, California, is expected to make his next appearance on the televised portion of the Deontay Wilder-Fury undercard December 1 at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

I thought he was fighting Joe Hanks. Who is of course Academy Award winning Tom Hanks brother who boxes.

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.

Haymon you bum just tell us already who is Joyce fighting. Washington or Hanks? Hanks is a bum so better if Joyce knock out Washington.

Quick question for the UK folks: any particular reason why Joyce turned pro so late at the age of 32? It seems like he picked up boxing late, did he?

Of course he is ready. He is an Olympic silver medallist and is 33 years old. If he isn't ready for the likes of a Gerald Washington now he never will be.

Joyce win by stoppage.

Joyce means business and they are letting him go.Such a relief when there's so many protected heavies with Hearn!

Exactly, can't mess around with 15 bouncers/cab drivers first at his age.

He's competed with the best amateurs in the world so needs to just get on with it.

Washington fits the bill perfectly as a fringe contender/gatekeeper

Also Washington isn't a title contender. He's a cherry pick by Alabama fraud for easy fight. Washington was paid to quit vs Wildher and that's what he did.
