I think this only highlights the gulf between the top fighters of the heavyweight division, and the jobbers packing out the levels below. 

I'd never heard of either of them before last night - thought it was 2 up and coming fighters, staggered to find it was a 37 year old jobber losing to a  39 year old jobber.

Utter fecking state of the heavyweight division over the last 20 years or so encapsulated in one sorry bout.

Joyce has always been easy to hit. His ability to take a shot & outlast his opponents, is what made him dangerous.

That southpaw Zhang’s left hand seemed to be attached to Joe’s eye, for the duration, with a piece of elastic. Highlighted that either they paid no attention to his opponent being left handed; or were unable to change tactic in between the rounds to negate the issue.

By taking on such a dangerous fight, he’s just put himself further away from any prospective mandatory fight. Would either Usyk/Fury take him as a voluntary? Maybe the latter, as Usyk is tied up with the various bodies.

Any half decent boxer would take a fight with Joyce because he's fucking reekin'. He's the only boxer I can remember who due to inactivity of the big boys has seen his reputation grow to a dangerously high level (for himself). There's a reason Fury talks him up and was touting it a mega fight - due to it being one he would canter.

Just watched something called a bridgerweight title fight.

To the surprise of absolutely no one, Alen Babic gets mailed the second he remotely steps up in class. Should have kept him fighting taxi drivers in co-mains on bigger shows so he could keep selling tickets.
