    Yoka is nothing.

    Joyce is slow but all this talk of Gorman's skills and stuff sounds a bit rubbish to me .I've seen Gorman fight a few times and seen no sign of it.

    Dubois v Joyce makes sense but I think Joyce's handlers will keep him away for a while and Dubois' people now see an opportunity to milk him.

    Although I agree his team should take their time with him, however his talent will propel him to the top much sooner than later. I can see him fighting one of the top guys in 2 years at 23.

    Dubois was impressive, i particularly liked his ram rod jab. He has good fundamentals and it seems like hes not too bad in the chin department. Gorman on the other hand fought scared and threw his punches like he was afraid to get hit.

    Regardless, I'd now like to see Dubois against a real gate keeper like a Breazeale or Charles Martin.

    Frank Warren is talking Joyce vs Gorman next....um why? Gorman is the loser, he needs to pit the 2 winners against each other, no excuses why Dubois vs Joyce shouldn't be made next, that's the most logical fight...no protecting.
    This isn't the UFC. They are not going to put 2 prospects against each other. The loser wouldn't be profitable anymore. UFC can do it because they only care about putting the best fights, they don't care about the fighters' records and careers.

    They are both going to keep slowly fighting winnable fights cherrypicked by their promoters until they reach the top and have to face another the top guy (Either Fury, Wilder or Joshua/Ruiz). That's how boxing works

    Thought Gorman was more overhyped than DDD, but I did expect more from Gorman than he came with. Thought he was smarter. Definitely didn't think he was on some Fury sh^t like some people seem to be comparing him to as of late, but thought he'd come smarter all the same.
    It was total hype. All of Fury's camp came out and said Gorman was a slick boxer and that Dubois was a stiff robot. That seemed to be enough to make all the casuals believe it.

    Respect to Gorman though. Like I said a proper fighter who gave it a go and never gave up. You don't need to win to be a real fighter

    But both he and Joyce are Euro level at best.
    Dubois is a level above Joyce, he’d annihilate him.

    As soon as Joyce fights a live heavyweight with power he’ll get sparked with the way he gets hit in fights.
