    Comments Thread For: Manager: Very Confident Joe Joyce Would Topple Oleksandr Usyk

    Unbeaten heavyweight contender Joe Joyce is sitting back and waiting for the WBO's world title situation to play out. Oleksandr Usyk is the WBO's mandatory challenger to world champion Anthony Joshua. Joshua, who also holds the WBA, IBF, IBO world titles, is focused on a finalizing a highly lucrative unification fight with WBC champion Tyson Fury.

    I know everyone is gonna say how Usyk won easily in the WBSS 7 years ago but I think this would be a tougher fight now, Joyce has improved heaps since then whilst I actually think Usyk peaked a while ago, it's a 12 round fight, different game this time around.

      Erm.. Wtf you on about Hickey?
      Usyk won the WBSS final in May 2018.

      I think you're confusing the WBSS with the amateur WSB tournament of 2012/2013, where Usyk won the HW class?

      Keep trying though. One day you'll make the list.....

        Joshua should pay Usyk some step aside money, and Usyk should fight Joe Joyce in the interim! Winner gets winner of Fury vs. Joshua!

          I have never seen any WBSS fights, but I would still like to see Joe stay away from Usyk, even though he has improved a lot. Usyk still moves an awful lot.

            I haven't seen their previous fight. It's an intriguing fight to me because they're both so different. I hope it happens.

              Sam Jones needs to calm down. There won't be any JJ v Usyk for the vacant belt.

                No matter how much Joyce has improved, Usyk is still a bad matchup for Joyce. He’s too slick and nimble for him.

                  It is too dangerous now for Usyk to fight Joyce. Why should he risk his mando position to fight Joyce when he is close to making over 15milla, a life time cashout! What if he loses his mando position to JJ

                    I actually like usyk n hate joyce n this shows im not biased in sports. I think joyce beats usyk at this point. Usyk has proven against last second journeyman n a gatekeeper at best that heavyweight he lacks size nthe power for much effect n shows signs of struggle against there size n power. Joyce is a step up above chisora and alot bigger i see usyk either getring dropped or it being long and boring win for joyce for hell just keep typing him up putting weight on usyk making usyk carry all that for majority rounds n being usyk size thats a struggle n tiring job itsself
