Its a fight that can go either way my pick would be Dubois right now.

Did someone just call JJ mobile or are my eyes playing tricks on me?DrDuke wrote: ↑28 Apr 2019, 09:03 I see it as a rather close bout, because Joyce isn't too polished boxer. Yeah, he is more experienced, he's mobile and hard-hitting, but he leaves too many openings. He's not elusive enough to school Dubois. Maybe Dubois is green, but he can fight in a collected way and find openings for his bombs.

Dubois would blast him out if this happens, just watch. Joyce is slow as molasses.

If I was manager of Dubois, I seriously doubt I'd subject him to a challenging fight the likes of Joyce at this point. Being only 21, Daniel might be able to handle Joe, but why take the risk at such an early age? I would feed him a few more rugged and durable opponents, and get his record up to about 20-0-0 before allowing him to face other fighters who might garner him more money at that point in his career.

Dubois has more power than Joyce, but Joyce has a good chin and a much better engine. The problem for Joyce is that he doesn't hit hard enough to avoid facing that considerable danger for several rounds. But I fancy Joyce to survive, in which case I only see him winning.

JJ would be too much for DD if they fight any time soon

This fight won't happen anytime soon. Joyce wasnt exactly pushing it, quickly describing it as an option before changing the subject.
Joyce is on a fastrack whereas Dubois is gathering experience. I can't see it happening.

As boring as they might come across, they let their fighting do the talking, I think everyone would agree to prefer that to some loudmouth chump whos all noise like Broner
Agreed. I stand by the opinion that Joyce is a KO waiting to happen. Dubois has enough basic boxing skills to completely run through Joyce for me. Joyce reminds me of a more advanced version of Larry Olubamiwo. I'd probably take the John McDermott that starched Olubamiwo to starch Joyce. For his actual skill level, Joyce may be the most overrated boxer in the world. He's awful

Kownacki has beaten Tufte, Szpilka. Kiladze, Martin and Washington. Most of those guys would eat Dubois alive. DDD was rocked by the second best heavyweight in Ghana. Dubois is a muscle bound guy with very little defence and is a KO loss waiting to happen. Gorman and Joyce would dominate him.

You think he's the third best heavyweight in Ghana?

Dubois for me will beat beat joyce , he will spark him , he is big man ,moves well , throws punches from all angles with vemon , can take a shot and when put on him , he will stand and trade ,

Yeah I think Joyce would walk Dubois down. He's got a fierce workrate and decent skills. So fuckin slow though! Painfully slow!

of course the level matters, lartey has never shown meaningful power vs anyone worth a damn, doesnt matter what his physical appearance is

but how good is joyce though
Re: Keep Dubois away from Joyce!
Posted: 04 May 2019, 22:05
id reckon hes way better and more powerful then larty.
dubs chin is very still a non proven quality, hes not been hit by anyone worth a dam
dont get me wrong he may well blast out joyce, but his chins still out to the jury
