Comments Thread For: Joe Joyce-Joe Hanks To Open Wilder-Fury Pay-Per-View Undercard

[DougalDylan]

Joyce is going backwards when he really needs to be pushed hard. Waste of time fight for him.

A deal for the opener of Showtime's four-fight pay-per-view telecast December 1 has been finalized. BoxingScene.com has learned heavyweights Joe Joyce and Joe Hanks have agreed to terms to fight on the Deontay Wilder-Tyson Fury undercard that night. London's Joyce (6-0, 6 KOs) and Hanks (23-2, 15 KOs), of Newark, New Jersey, will meet in a 10-rounder at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

So is he not with Haye anymore

People should just be happy that there's three heavyweights on one card. Fans could have put pressure on Ortiz to fight Joyce but wilder protectors are apparent around the boxing community and want Ortiz to have easy fights because Wilder defeated him.

That makes absolutely no sense. If anything they'd want Ortiz to get big fights and beat better opponents so it looks better on Wilder. Which is why people wanted to see the Ortiz vs Whyte fight.

nice little story ur rambling to urself there hon

Anthony Joshua does not deserve his gold medal.

Joe Joyce deserves a gold way more than AJ.

Most UK fans will admit this.

But if you don’t believe me, id be happy to sit with you and score his fights against Savón and Cammarelle

It would have been better to see Joyce/Washington but we are stuck with Hanks. I watched both of Hanks stepup losses to Rossy & Ruiz. The Rossy fight was close & that was on espn but he got his butt kissed by Ruiz in China I believe. I don’t see it ending well for Hanks as I have him on the same level as Kiladze. Eventually Joyce will get to Hanks. Hanks is a big guy & might be able to land a few shots as Joyce isn’t hard to hit but unless he hurts him I expect Joyce to walk him down & take him out within the first half of the fight.

Joe Hanks??? Tom Hanks brother?

Most posters who are wilder fans don't even want Wilder fighting Joshua and use outlandish excuses to blame Hearn . Ive seen wilder fans on you tube the majority of them saying Wilder should ignore Joshua and never fight him. Wilder fans are not wanting the fight in fear of him losing and its the same with Ortiz because once he losses Wilder has no marquee win. Its also apparent Wilder fans don't think whyte is a good fighter so they think Ortiz will win so it makes absolute sense.

Every wilder fan I’ve seen has been screaming for AJ to fight wilder and Ortiz to fight whyte. But apparently Whyte vs AJ 2 is the fight that’s really wanted over there
