Joyce winning was bad for boxing

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

What makes for a better division? Greater competitiveness throughout or a top dog head and shoulders above the rest? Because if you ask me the current scene has a healthy mix of the two...

Better fighters. Tyson Fury is the only elite HW in this era.

The 90’s had Lewis, Holyfield, Tyson, Bowe, Moorer etc. Even guys like Briggs and Tua would blow through most of these current guys.

This era is a fun era, we’ve had some great fights like Fury-Wilder 1 and AJ-Wlad, but in terms of quality it’s a pretty weak era.

Fury, AJ and Wilder probably have what 5 years left in their careers max. Who’s coming through after them? There’s nobody.

I'm glad Joyce won because he needed it more. Dubois has a ton of time to rebuild.

[STREET CLEANER]

Joyce does't rely on reflexes. He is big strong dude that has a high output and pressure. Only if his chin starts giving away will be his main downfall.

Yeah but you’re missing the 3rd factor .. talent

A division can be competitive with B grade fighters. Welterweight is a decent example, minus Manny

Completely different to a competitive division full of A grade fighters, like the Welterweight of a few years ago

Heavyweight now is full of B grades, with Tyson Fury sitting atop as the only genuine talent in the division
