why is that? i worry he may be a bit broke from that, at least going right back in with thhe guy who made him quit

was worrying how easy that jab was landing

a minute in to the fight and joe had probably landed 10 clean jabs already

FW keeps saying Usyk vs. DDD..

Now JJJ can get a rematch with Usyk.

Usyk beats both fighters with ease.

It looked exactly like that. But also the matador had a great chin.

The forum and this thread are absolutely live tonight. Been lots of conflicting views and opinions it’s great. Been a good while since the last thread like this.

I think DDD taking too much flak, he’ll come again and he didn’t exactly disgrace himself.

Yeh, he has no AM experience..

Did well to win the Brit/Comm belts, and he’s still young.. ‘he can and will come again’..

He’ll probably win the world title after the likes of AJ and Fury retire..

"Next stop Los Angeles"
Ooh, what's that?

Oh....

i have to give it to joe today i though he took some good shots , but he carried on with his own fight ,his jab was great today boxed smart and keeped his head really good win the pressure he put on dan i think buckeld dubois , really good

As a Peacock guy I was obviously rooting for DDD but was under no illusion that this was gonna be a tough 50/50 fight.

Seen pictures of the eye and it looked bad :(

Joe Joyce is as nice as they come and deserves this moment and will give everyone trouble with his skill set. Heavyweight boxing has different rules .. you don’t need to be an amazing all rounder to be a legit champion .. being immense in one or two departments will get you a long way.

Hope there is no permanent damage to DDDs eye and that he comes back a better fighter

I bet he’s proper salty, bet Hearn is pissing himself right now too.

Joe was too seasoned, conditioned and tough for DD. That isn't changing any time soon. Another Joyce fight would finish DD

he had lots of amateur fights and boxed internationally. he just only had 7 senior fights

but it's not like a fabio wardley who literally had 0 proper am fights

Left eye completely closed.. started closing from round 3..

Joyce was landing that jab at ease.

Just like FW said, it was a fight of the jab. Who ever landed it would take advantage.

Who promotes Joyce ?

Disappointing to read that some folk think Dubois quit.

When your eye snaps it's natural to go straight into protection mode.

I’ve only seen the end where he took the knee, could see it was closed. No cut?

Had no way of seeing it and didn’t get home till about half way through.

I fancied Dubois to win this. Was it competitive?

Looked completely shut at the very end when he was interviewed. Reminiscent a bit of Mike Tyson after the Douglas fight. He even had similar ring attire.

He did quit. That's not blaming, that's just a fact.

The guy that's spent the past few months playing down his record and ability.

Joyce’s ramrod jab is like any other heavyweights backhand...18stone smashing your kipper in every 30 seconds, no thanks

he did quit, no doubt about it. doesn't mean it was cowardly or not a smart move, but he put himself to a knee and voluntarily stayed down. that's simply quitting

As Ricky said the ref should have had the doctor in several rounds before and kept monitoring it.

It was completely shut. There needs to be serious questions as to why a doctor wasn't even called in to look at it. IJL was the ref ofcourse. Inept.

Frampton and Haye top class on punditry tonight. What a breath of fresh air to hear pundits willing to challenge the broadcaster/promoter narrative.
