Joe Joyce looked in good shape as he walked the red carpet at the massive Tyson Fury - Francis Ngannou launch event in London on Thursday.

The veteran trainer of Joe Joyce admits he fell victim to his own hubris. Joyce, the longtime contender from England, suffered an upset loss to China’s Zhilei Zhang by sixth-round technical knockout last April at Copper Box Arena in London. Zhang could hardly miss with his left hand, and he eventually forced referee Howard Foster to stop their bout because of the swelling around Joyce’s right eye.

Zhilei Zhang, the WBO interim-heavyweight champion, met with Chinese media representatives in New York City to discuss his upcoming rematch with fellow Olympic silver medal winner Joe Joyce.

Oleksandr Usyk doesn’t really care who wins the Zhilei Zhang-Joe Joyce rematch next month, even though he might eventually defend his heavyweight titles against whoever emerges victorious.

Joe Joyce, who is currently the only man to defeat Daniel Dubois, believes his former foe did the right thing by slimming down for Saturday's fight with WBO, IBF, IBO, WBA world champion Oleksandr Usyk.

Joe Joyce believes late replacement Robert Helenius is more than capable of providing Anthony Joshua a hard night's work. Two-time world heavyweight champion Joshua is an overwhelming favorite to beat Helenius, who stepped in at seven days’ notice following the cancellation of AJ’s proposed clash with Dillian Whyte.

Five months after Chinese southpaw Zhilei “Big Bang” Zhang shook up the heavyweight division with a stunning knockout, he’ll look to do it again. Zhang’s rematch with British superstar Joe Joyce — Saturday, Sept. 23 at OVO Arena Wembley in London — will stream live and exclusively in the U.S. on ESPN+.

MOSES ITAUMA has revealed his most difficult spars have been against Daniel Dubois - not ‘plodders’ Anthony Joshua or Joe Joyce.
