Stopped, they had to stop it, his eye is a mess
The only thing strange is Joyce seemed to correctly answer the doctors' question of how many fingers.
Not saying it was a bad stoppage, it was rapidly getting worse and a man's sight is more important.

Good stoppage.
I’d like to see more is Big Bang. Nice hard sharp punches. Get fitter though you fat Chinese pudding.

I had Joyce a round up at the time of the stoppage, but they had to look after that eye.
Absolute respect to the man for taking this fight when he didn't have to. Zhang deserves an immediate shot at a top name next.

Hopefully this ends the Joyce is the boogeyman that everybody is avoiding nonsense i keep reading.
Fella is a heavy bag on legs who's just been stopped by a 40 year old.

First few rounds did the damage. Got the swelling started early and then kept putting pressure on it. We all thought Joyce could walk through anything, but the chin wasn't the problem here, it's a matter of protecting your other assets.
We've all seen the vulnerability, but we thought he could outwork his opponent and put them on the backfoot.

I’m Pretty sure he told him how many fingers he was holding up
The DR whispered to the ref. Properly said 'its your decision'

Never good seeing fights stopped on injuries but what can you do, take nothing away from Zhang he was very good tonight, was tattooing Joyce with the southpaw left hand from the start, rocked him in the 2nd and by then Joyce was beginning to look a mess, Joyce was starting to get to work as he often does after a slow start but he was already swelling up on the eye and he wasnt putting any dent in Zhang who was still landing the better punch, that left couldn't miss, knew it was getting stopped in the 6th when the ref called doc a second time

Ah come on Joyce what you doing
One thing being teak tough but you still got to move your head and not be static as static can be
Just took a hiding in there without even attempting to make that not the case
