Unless
Joyce gets caught cold in round one - which is always possible - I’d think it will be a pretty standard wear you down in 7 to 9 to round’s type performance. Hrgovic In the last fight look very weak and an arm-puncher.
Joyce will be much more forceful with the Chinese slugger.
Zhang is especially dangerous for the first three rounds. After that it should be
Joyce.
Joyce is rightfully a big favourite. Considering
Joyce has been showing an iron chin you have to assume he will make it out of those rounds.
Zhang being a skilled southpaw makes it very interesting because you have to expect him to land some haymakers.
Joyce will just jab and keep it simple for the first few rounds unless he gets hurt, in which case he will probably get taken out by shots he doesn't see coming from the southpaw stance. I definitely see a hairy moment or two but
Zhang has shown some stamina issues.
Zhang has great heart and always made it the distance no matter how tired he was and he will need ordinarily need to be nailed to the canvas but a British stoppage is likely to happen.
