Round-by-Round: Joe Joyce vs. Joseph Parker - 24 September 2022

[blanca]

Fish eyes has a massive dint in his noggin

[deadpan]

I bet Dubois doesn't call him out.

[handsofstone]

Joyce's heart deserves zero credit btw, I don't think he feels pain, didn't notice the fatigue some mentioned either, the guys a phenomenon a genuine one off

[Cyclops]

Career best showing from Joyce capped off by a highlight reel KO, tremendous, Joyce was immense, controlled everything even when Parker won rounds Joyce was calm and composed, Parker landed the right hand and Joyce as expected ate them like skittles, walked Parker down, ramrodding the jab down his throat and landing that big right hand, Parker has an incredible chin as well but the noticeable effect punches were having on both men was night and day, Parker who was in terrible shape looked knacker after about 3 rounds and was fighting on heart by then, Joyce would land and Parker would almost be running and near turning his back to get out of danger

I don't even think Joyce looked that slow tonight and his punching and pressuring was elite level, it was a pummeling and the left hook for the KO in the 11th was spectacular, the juggernaut rolls on

Yeh he didn’t look as slow tonight.

I hope people finally show him the respect he has always deserved.

That was a brilliant HW fight. A proper war. I really, really enjoyed that.

[forcefraser]

Usyk would be too slick for Joyce

I'd like to see him in with Wilder of Fury

[Blueprint]

Wilder vs Joyce please.

[gregregegg]

Stamina was always going to be the issue, parker coming in heavy didnt seem very smart. but i think he thought he could slow joyce with bombs. unfortunatly he landed a fair few absolute peaches and joyce hardly flinched.

Would love to see joyce vs usyk over 12 rounds...

Plenty of good fights left for parker too.

so you had parker ahead ta the time of the stoppage looking at your commentary on this thread?

Yea, i actualy did i think. If you asked me to score the first 10 "over all" id have joyce up comfortably. but round by round i had parker edging a fair few early. Looked sloppy getting pushed back, but i actualy liked the punches he was landing better. Obviosly in winning lots of those early rounds he was getting grinded down stamina wise.

I think there were times in the first half of the fight where joyce was blindly flurrying that he wasnt doing much. where as parker was jabbing and stumbling back looking poor at times but then planting his feet picking his shots well..

They took that out and replaced it with a supercharged titanium pump .
Never seen a chin like it , he doesn't seem to mark up either .

anything parker did, joyce had twice the effect. parker was distressed and getting manhandled from the 2nd or 3rd on. cant see anything other than jj being several up

maybe if parker was ahead, he can blame the injured eye like dub's ppl do

[Grilling Machine]

Joyce is a harder fight for Fury than AJ in my book. I'll be amazed if that one happens.

Usyk-Joyce is a question of whether Usyk can maintain his lead as he tires in the later rounds. Usyk starts favourite.

[jimb0d]

Crazy scores in this thread. Joyce was never troubled and doing what he wanted. Very impressive.

[margaret thatcher]

usyk moves way better than parker and has a great gas tank himself, id think he could see out 12 (parker almost did) and win on points

joyce beat him up

dont know i reckon he was hurt a couple of times there think the upper cut and there was another shot and he bounced on to jp on the ropes, he is something else he also has a great poker face it doesnt show any emotion

mmm, I always have a weird feeling when i have someone up on rounds even though i see them losing the "fight as a whole"... That was this for me.

Its hard judging joyce, when parker lands a flush bomb, do you score it as the bomb it was.... or the tap that joyce seemed to feel... hard to say.

[dookus]

I would even more now love to see Wilder - Joyce

[hhaehre]

usyk moves way better than parker and has a great gas tank himself, id think he could see out 12 (parker almost did) and win on points

He'd win every round. Unlike Parker he would do some cardio before the fight. Gotta love Joyce though, put him in with Wilder.

[brilo33]

does that bring dd stock up as he was very game against jj, like to see jj v wilder or whyte think fury and usyk beat him , i dont think this win catapults him above anyone that we didnt know already

[brilo33]

was a such a good heavy weight fight, hope jj gets his next fights soon as time is ticking and he has shown he deserves it now and he is so watchable

[Grilling Machine]

I felt Parker won a few rounds, but I definitely had Joyce comfortably ahead.

Parker's best shots bounced off his noggin like a football off a car roof, is the thing, so if we were scoring by reaction we'd say “Nah, didn't hurt him — it doesn't count”. But obviously, on points, some of those punches were round-winners.

One of those fights where points and attrition didn't match up.

i think i had jp coming back in to it before that huge ko i think jp was absolutely running on empty when he went down got back up aswell what a warrior

[Grilling Machine]

Provisionally, no doubt. He boxed well in that fight until his eye went, and might have years of his prime ahead.

[gregregegg]

The curse of signing with a promoter/broardcaster and then going "1 more" on a rival platform..

-AJ with his DAZN contact signed befor a loss but starting after it.

-Parker signed to sky, only to lose on BT befor even having a fight.
