It looked like a big, slow, autistic robot beating up an overmatched opponent
How did Joyce look vs stiverne?

Not to take anything away from Joyce but Stiverne made him look good IMO. Good name to have in the current climate because Wilder beat him but I do not see Joyce ever really troubling the top 4 or 5 (depending on who #5 is when Ortiz retires).
I think if he can get past someone like Pulev, Parker or Hughie Fury then that would be his pinnacle victory. Plus being 33 and relatively new to the pro scene, he will struggle to get big name fights unless he fights 4 or 5 times a year.Comment

i of course didnt read any of this drivel but considering its juggernutter he will be still trying to claim that actually joyce isnt complete crap but actually hes amazingHe fought a more inside fight then usual and smothered his own power punching up but he drained the hell out of stiverne. He ratteld Stiverne every round barring the 4th because he was punching non stop. he resumed in the 5th and you knew it was over real soon with Stiverne staggering to his corner.
He had a far better straight right in this one and less body punching, so hes still learning to mix it up more.
All in all really he looked like he coasted the entire fight with patterns of trying to hurt Stiverne then slowing down on and off. Nothing really negative, he adjusted well after round one and settled down being more aware of right hands coming back. Stiverne didn't have a chance ,could nt hurt Joyce couldn't punch a lot and couldn't breath for 6 rounds with a 265 pound guy on top of him battering him.
I forget who it was about a 50/50 fight maybe Barrett but this was not anything of the sort ,had the bookies seen this fight prior the odds would be 50 to 1 . lol
At the doubters
I'll put it to you this way..people will lose money betting against Joyce with anyone outside the top 3.
Don't believe me ? Go ahead bet against him if hes not fighting Fury or Joshua, if he fights wilder he'll be the underdog take that bet to if you took Stiverne over him. Wilder will probably be a 5 to 1 favorite in an actual 50/50 fight . lol

He's not going to be elite but he looks like a good guy to have in the mix. Strong, aggressive, should be in some good fights. He's too flawed to face the top 3 and Ortiz would beat him, but Joyce vs Rivas, Whyte, Kownacki would be good to see.Comment

those are the fights that would get him in the mix. i think rivas is the only fight he'd win, but they're all winnable.Comment
