    Usyk vs Joyce

    I think this one’s officially ordered ?

    Who you have , I’m going with Joyce . This is a crazy fight , I think Joyce catches up to him mid rounds and gets a UD win . If Joyce wins it sets up Joyce vs Fury or A.J I think ? Which is far better fights ,I don’t think Usyk can do much against either .

    Has Joyce improved enough to handle Usyk's technique, speed, and movement? Has the combination of age, injuries, and the move to heavyweight slowed Usyk down enough that he no longer has such advantages over Joyce? Is the fight going to be in a band box like Usyk vs. Chisora?

    Who knows?

    I think Joyce still presents an easy target for Usyk to rack up a lot of scoring shots, but anything Joyce lands could be damaging; the guy is huge. Neither of them are going to gas out. We know Joyce has a great beard, and we've never seen Olek so much as buzzed.

    Very tough call...I'm going with Usyk here. He has too much movement and will dance and jab his way to a decision victory.

    However it goes, I like both fighters and am very excited for this row.

      Usyk for me! He wins a points decision

      Uses his boxing and footwork, gets in and out to win most rounds

      Don’t get me wrong there will be a few sticky moments, maybe gets buzzed once or twice

        Joyce for me. I think he is gonna lose every fight, but every time he proves me wrong.

          Joyce for me. I feel like Usyk has slowed as he's got older / moved up in weight and thus I can see Joyce being able to catch him and land in later rounds.

              Joyce via controversial decision

              It'll follow most of Usyks fights with him taking a few rounds to get going, he'll dominate the mid rounds then he'll slow that touch & Joyce will bag enough rounds to make it close enough for them to gift him a decision.

                I also predict a lot of relieved AJ fans justifying a bs decision and claiming Joyce won certain rounds for basically trying aka being the aggressor aka plodding forward like a damn mummy hitting thin air.

                  Joyce for me. Late fight stoppage. Just too much pressure and too much power jab. Hope it’s announced soon.
