x2. If anybody can find a video of that Olympic final then put it up on here: somehow it has mysteriously disappeared from the internet. There's a video of an amateur final from the previous year where they both fight and Yoka wins. I don't know how you can watch that but you can't see the video of Joe getting jobbed of Olympic gold. Somebody doesn't want us to see it.

Yoka has made it clear he has no interest in meeting Joyce again which tells me a lot.

True. But not at the speed of the top guys. By the time Joyce gets his feet set and goes to throw a punch, he will have already been hit.

Incredibly slow, accurate and powerful. No threat to the top.

Joyce is a fit hard to beat heavy, his punches can be telegraphed and look slow, but he lands and by the looks on the face of his opponent those punches hurt, Joyce has got that clubbing power where a jab or a right has power that saps his opponents.
It's hard to know how far he could go, if he gets matched right then a run to a title fight might happen, obviously it depends who holds the belts if he gets that far.
I'd like to see him against Hughie Fury, just to see a classic boxer Vs brawler match .

I think you are all being incredibly harsh.

What you call slow
I call TV friendly

Not all of us can afford high end TVs with their fancy interpolation software to handle motion blur

I've always seem him as a poor man's AJ big, athletic with a poor boxing iq and quite stationary.

The speed and power is where Joshua is ahead.

Definitely deserved his gold medal and better than yoka
