Joyce beats AJ in my opinion and possibly Wilder. I think Fury and Usyk beat him though.
Unless Wilder is shop-worn after his bouts with Fury I think he beats Joyce. Parker landed some decent punches on Joyce last night. Joyce would be knocked out if Wilder landed flush on him.

I couldn’t really comment, my depth of boxing knowledge isn’t that deep but as Senna said, Joyce got in some heavy blows against Parker, so it isn’t completely out of the question.
Fuck off Stuart Pyke and John Rawling!

Joyce has the best chin in the heavyweight division imo. He is relentless, I think a fight with him and Wilder would be brilliant. Parker did hit Joyce with some good punches but didn’t put a dent in him.

Well if the Fury fight falls through I’ll expect to see you fight AJ in December.

Joyce has a good chin, but I don't think it's as good as it's hyped up to be. He was dropped a few times as an amateur and he's just turned 37. I'm not sure his chin would hold up against AJ, let alone Wilder.

It held up against Dubois. I just think his style is wrong for AJ and Wilder. I think he would wear AJ down late in the fight when his gas tank has emptied. Wilder couldn’t deal with Fury putting it on him. Joyce would be relentless. Admittedly he could get caught, but if the fight went late, I reckon Wilder would be badly marked up.

I don't think Dubois is all he's cracked up to be.

I get what you mean though. Fury had a lot of success when he put Wilder on the back foot, which I assume is what Joyce would try and do. However, Wilder has freakish power and fast hands. I suspect he would land flush on Joyce before he is worn down and stop him. Remember, Wilder was able to land flush against Fury in their last bout, and only Fury's amazing ability to recover saved him. That punch would have stopped almost any other current heavyweight.

I do rate Joyce 5th out of the current heavyweights. Gassiev's progression at heavyweight has been slow, and I do rate him higher than Ruiz, Whyte, Hrgović, etc. Thus, I think Joyce deserves a crack at one of the top 4, even if I believe he'll probably come up short.

We will see. I’d put Joyce 3rd or 4th. I really think Joyce beats AJ and Wilder is a pick ‘em but I’d slightly favour Joyce.

Fight is still happening. I wonder if Eubank will come in a bit over the rehydration limit and take the fine?
I really hope and actually think that Eubank JNR will win this inside the distance.

On Saturday? Possibly not.

Apparently it has officially been called off. I think this could have an adverse affect on Benn’s career.

FFS, keep up.

The BBBofC announced hours ago that they were "prohibiting" the fight from happening.

Hearn then claimed he was going to get lawyers involved in response to the BBBofC's decision, and also didn't rule out finding another board to sanction the fight.

Since then no announcements have been made.

An article that was online 5 minutes prior to me posting my last post stated it was ‘officially off’ that article has now been removed.
I am following this story just like you are.

No he got the approval. The only fight I can think of in the U.K. that wasn’t sanctioned by the BBBC was the Haye v Chisora fight which I think came under the jurisdiction of the Luxembourg boxing board.
