UPDATE:

Decent match up I will take Whyte.

This will be bombs away, but after he got dropped by Chisora, im not sure Joyce has the durability anymore asfter the Zhang beatings

 

[Jonny Ninja]

Whyte is well past his best but Joyce is pretty much done at this point. I actually think it could be a good but I’ll take Whyte

 

[Kovalev's "Man Bag"]

Joyce's pressure and volume against Whyte's slugging power. The slugger would have the stylistic advantage. Neither is very durable anymore but Joyce did just get dropped and lose to Chisora. I've got Whyte by KO.

Whyte has also only been beaten by some serious serious one punch hitters by KO, i fancy him in this one as well, i know Joyce hits hard, i just dont think he has the one punch power needed to stop Whyte

LOL@Whyte

"Joe Joyce has said he will knock me out, Joe is very good at putting people to sleep because he is so fucking boring"

One of the funniest pressers I've seen in a while. You can tell both respect each other.

It's odd to see a guy like Joyce in this business. He's a gentlemen and couldn't even bad mouth Whyte after the comments.

I'm thinking If Joyce is still hanging around after 8th round, Whyte is in trouble.

 

[SuperLuigi]

Awesome fight. While both are past it I think Joyce's chin is destroyed while Whyte has just been lazy and fat ever since he came up short against Fury. I'd love to see him come back motivated and try to snag the belt off of DDD.

UPDATE:

 

[Blastbeat]

well shit
things definitely dont look good for Joyce now
Hrgovic is still pretty damn good despite being stopped by Dubois last time out
he's not as far along in his career as Joyce is. im thinking Hrgovic by late TKO or corner retirement

 

[Misery Signals]

Hmm I like both Joyce and Hrgovic. I guess it depends where they are at after losses.
