Comments Thread For: Joe Joyce Looks Forward To Beating Dubois, Has No Fear of Usyk

[BlackR0bbb]

Joyce is right and I said the same thing after the Chisora fight -- Usyk is a very skilled boxer, but he's not hurting any of the big boys at heavyweight because he doesn't have heavyweight power. This is not news.

Dubois wins this one.

Everyone want Usyk. But what they do not take into account is how Usyk is feel. So very feel. And you just do not mess with that in any division.

I like Joyce chances...a lot for some reason.

Firstly, I dont even think his age is as big of a factor. Gone are the days where heavyweights were all guys who trained from the age of 12. Its now the game huge dudes who pivot from football/basketball in their late teens/early twenties and a heavyweight in the either sports can enjoy a career deep into their 30's. I've also been in the ring with guys who fight like he does...relaxed, slow, plodding and constant pressure. They are THE WORST people to spar with and, unless your jab is on point and your workrate is high, it makes you panic and weighs u the **** down. I've not seen much of Dubois on the back foot but I'm not entirely convinced.

How did Dubois get ranked above Joyce? Joyce has fought way better opponents already

If rankings were based on better wins there would be different rankings . Rankings are tallied also tallied by activity and popularity as well as who knows who, DDD has Warren and Joyce for the most part has Sam Jones pushing him .

Jones is by far a better promoter but Warren holds the strings for now .

Very excited about this fight even though they haven't started to promote it yet but I'm sure BT Sports is lining up some great content for its youtube page for this fight

And Oilskin Parker has fought way better opponents than Joyce and Dubois put together...

Go figure ?

Joe is dangerous fight for everybody in division. He lacks speed, but the guy is just huge.

Valuev is much huger but David "The Toe" Haye handled him easily

Joyce is better than Valuev ever was IMO.

Joe Joyce is a 6"6 version of Derek Chisora in terms of mentality and attitude 'Their intentions inside of the ring, are exactly the same'.

Chisora being a tad faster at his peak, and maybe even now.

'The superhero juggernaut has a superpower called infinite momentum' The game plan is simple to beat fighters such as Joyce, ether out box them or meet force with force and stop their momentum 'There will be very few number of heavyweights who would voluntarily meet force with force when facing Joyce' but that is exactly how I think Dubois is going to fight him.

Notice how there is always a point in Chisora's fights where? His momentum is momentarily broken. Some fighters seem to have the force of momentum in abundance, Mike Tyson, Rocky Marciano, Antonio Margarito 'I believe they have this ability innately, and it has nothing to do with boxing'.
