Might as well stop it and come back for the rematch. **** happens.

 

[robfosters]

So yea he might not get knocked out but you cant keep taking those shots.

Yeah, I always knew his lack of defence would catch up with him

 

[The_One]

Joyce got absolutely peppered in that fight, he's one tough mofo for sure though.

Not sure people will be rushing to face Zhang

 

[RockLobster]

Zhang looks untouched

 

[Doobedoo]

Fought the wrong fight from the start but Zhang was good and deserved the stoppage.

 

[Psycho Ned]

LMAO the cards were nicely cooked ready for Joyce but couldn't get there.

There won't be a rematch - makes no sense for either fighter. Zhang will get a pay day against someone and Joyce, well he has little box office appeal after that.

But he isnt a good boxer.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Happy with that. I would've been disgusted if someone as limited as Joyce ever ended up with a title, I want to see at least a little bit of skill in the ring and he has none.

State of those cards, ****ing worse than Joyce's ability.

Of course their will.

This is the problem with boxing fans say fighters are scared to take on challenges and to lose their 0’s and when you have fighters that do you slaughter them and call them useless. Back to football.

What challenge? Zhang's basically a nobody on the world scene and Joyce was expected to walk through him. This was meant to be an easy fight before a title fight and he's just been fed Chinese takeaway.

why is zhang a nobody? just because none of the other big players have faced him? hes one of the biggest punchers in the division

Have a rematch clause, be interesting if he even wants that fight again though.

Why not he can do better.

Not true really. Zhang has been avoided by the bigger stars because they know he's dangerous. This was always viewed as a 50:50 fight with only home advantage perhaps favouring Joyce. Anyone who saw Hergovic vs Zhang would know this was going to be a tough night.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Think Joyce has to take the rematch really otherwise where else does he go? Come in a bit heavier to try hurt him and move his ******* head a bit!

I'd be concerned about how little joy he had in any round though, never even slightly looked like troubling him.

 

[BaZ87]

Joyce's tactic of blocking punches with his head was never the smartest thing but it well and truly caught up with him today. All the chat around him being the best of the rest after Fury turned out to be exaggerated nonsense.

 

[BaZ87]

Can we stop the petty comments please.

 

[Quinnaay]

Why not he can do better.

He can, but if he loses it’s over. It’s a very risky fight and a tough fight that didn’t suit him.
