I agree with that, however; I'm speaking to your mocking of posters. I don't remember anyone saying he doesn't have power.
well just a few comments i quckly found from his last fight

and lol im not mocking anyone, just saying what type of comments u often see when joyce fights. some are valid like him being sloooow

My money is on Allen v Gorman.

That might not be the fight called initially but sadly most British prospects don't want to fight domestic match ups when they think they might have bigger fish to fry later

It makes me laugh how so many posters go on about how poo and slow Joyce is yet the fact it's so hard to get somebody in the ring with him says a lot.
You have never heard me say it!
I'm basically agreeing with you. Nobody wants that work.

'hes so sh!t'

'my dead nan moves faster'

'gawd he has no power either'


tbf he is slow as sh!t and has a butt ugly style. though i do think hes more effective then a lot give credit for. though not top hw material.
The no power comment is just ridiculous. When Joyce fights a decent enough opponent, he'll get exposed. He's slow; he's powerful; and so far effective, but against less than stellar competition. Not sure what you're going on about.
He fought all the best in the world at amateur level and has wins over some of the more highly rated prospects. He should have won Olympic gold. The kid can box. The Usyk loss was a long time ago and there is no shame in how that fight went either. He never stopped making Usyk work and Usyk was already an Olympic gold champion and expected to win anyway. I rate Usyk very highly.

Ams very different than pros. I rate Usyk very highly as well. I just don't rate Joyce that high. I don't think he's bad, but he's not top tier.

Styles make fights, Joyce is a bit slow, fighters like Usyk or even Hughie Fury won't suit him.

Usyk would embarrass Joyce.
But Joyce beats Hughie easily. Hughie is domestic level at best
