in my opinion he did exactly the right thing, hes 23 year old, gtfoh with 'he should have let himself get ko'd' what difference does it make he would (or should cause it looks like the frank warren robbery was on) have lost either way and that eye injury was gruesome and a solid straight from joe could have ended his career before its even got going.
Fact is the kid wasnt prepared for it at all mentally or physically, fed a load of bums then had a huge step up in class, exactly the same thing happened with bakole.
Hes got a long career ahead of him and now he knows where he went wrong, you could still see a lot of talent there offensively but hes falllen in love with his power thinking as soon as he lands clean joyce was gonna go like the rest of them, you could see the panic on his face early on when he realised joe wasnt going anywhere. Its no surprise his defence was non existent when hes never needed to use it, warrens got to take the blame for thinking that fight was a good idea with out dubois gradually moving up in class before hand.
Put yourself in his shoes, 23 years old, no challenges whatsoever as a pro, everyone hyping you through the roof and now you are running on empty with some horrible 18 stone + heavyweight who isnt going anywhere, plodding forward and turning your face into a butchers block
people talking are talking about him like hes in his mid 30s ffs, no wonder fighters dont usually want to take risky fights early on cause they get crucified if they lose.
funny the same people hyping him are now calling him a hype job themselves, problem is that the public build these guys up just to knock them down.
