Not pleased Dubois lost, but pleased Joyce won
I think things were being set up for Dubois to win as Warren saw him as the future, if it had gone the distance, it would always be Dubois on points. The bookies made Dubois the favorite, and this annoyed Joyce. Hence why those in the know were happy Joyce won and proved a point. I must admit his jab actually looked fast and good, he came in to avoid Dubois power shots and fight using his height reach and movement. Joyce can move very well for a heavy and has a good jab, but I must admit he normally fights so slow with his non stop power shots so I was worried if he fought like that he could lose; if he can add some faster combinations to this style with power shots he is going to be hard to beat over 12.
I think that last jab was right on the eye and blood come out leaving Dubois to think his eye had popped. He made the decision to stop, he could have got up and asked to see the Dr and let them stop it, but for him he made the right decision. I guess some of us would have loved to see him go all guns in for one final round, then retire on his stool from Dr's advice if Joyce survived, but he left that option too late when his eye had popped and he feared for his future sight.

Teflon Hearn the Puff Daddy of boxing has always been an idiot. This type of idiocy is the reason he has ruined a lot of promising young talents.
Easy to chat shiiit when you’re not the one getting punched in the face. Daddy’s money and a superstar falling on your lap got you where you’re Edward - humble yourself because you might get humbled. Life has a way of humbling big mouths.Last edited by BangEM; 12-02-2020, 07:09 PM.

Dubois is 23 with a very limited amateur career, stepped up a couple of levels and did not have the experience to formulate the proper gameplan and was still competitive. He had a bleeding retina and a fractured orbital bone. He quit but trashing him for doing so is pathetic.

Love him or hate him, Hearn changed the game. Built up a stable that allows him to put on stacked cards, that keeps Sky happy and gets him even more dates and build up the fighters properly.
Warren is still putting on 90s style shows, where it's his fighters vs opponents, all while paying to climb the WBO rankings. So the shows are pretty ****, and the fighters have rubbish CVs and eventually get exposed...

And none, including Joyce, punch with the force of a car crash
And are you telling me that Joe Joyce is a "power jabber" now? Jesus Christ!Last edited by Fighter78; 12-03-2020, 04:49 PM.

Go and stand in front of Joyce and let him jab you in the eye for 30 minutes...then tell me how hard he jabs. Or, you know, you could just look at Dubois face
