    UK boxing has replaced Germany has the center of corruption in boxing. I'm not too surprised by these cards

    No the center of corruption is wherever the center of boxing is.

    IN EUROPE, the money is in England and so the corruption follows.

    The bigger fights are here. The audience is here. The money is here. Bees and honey, flies and shit.

    I wonder what the odds on Chelsea, Spurs, Newcastle AND Joyce losing were? Probably 100 to 1.....

    No doubt, the problem is not the location, it's the sport itself

    Would Garcia defeating Tank be a bigger upset than this Zhang ponderously out-boxing the ponderous Joe Joyce

    Who knows. A lot of today's top 20 hws have serious Amateur credentials. Garcia is a borderline McClean Hospital case at times, with his mental issues etc.

    zhang was a bigger underdog according to odds but everyone pretty much figured that fight would be violent and competitive. as it turns out, it wasnt that competitive.

    agREED…

    For as Musclebound as He Is, Joshua Indeed Has Decent Handspeed…His Complete Lack of FLUIDITY Is On a Joyce Level, However…

    2 ROBOTIC Ass MuhFugga’s…

    Joyce is Tooooo COMFORTABLE /w Getting Hit But That Trait Would Actually BENEFIT Him vs Joshua, Who Still PANICS a Bit Whenever He’s Touched…

    As Bad as Joyce Looked, REED Probably Takes Him Over AJ at This Point of Their Careers…

    I dont understand why the doctor asked him how many fingers if he was going to stop it either way (seemed like joyce correctly identified the number of fingers).

    I agree that Zhang was lucky they stopped it. He was definitely losing steam. And joyce was doing a lot of body work. What's interesting is Joyce's arm punches hurt. ...so even though it may seem like nothing, joyce was actually putting some hurt on zhang.

    And the money. You can believe that a lot of people lost a lot of money last night and that had Zhang been cut the fight wouldn't have had multiple visits from the doctor.....it's not ethnic or nationalistic per se. The money just bends people.

    Agreed. I was watching that. Very fuddling. It could be how long Joyce took to answer but Joyce does everything slowly so .....


    Zhang gambled. He came in massive and went for it early. It turned out to be a test of his gas tank Vs Joyce eye.

    He won his bet, deservedly....

    That eye will be an issue. Kell Brook, Margarito says it will be there.

    I enjoyed the fight though, Zhang punches beautifully. Those power shots zap out like a cobra strike with zero recoil. Reminded me of Cory Sanders

    Reed already alluded to the intangible....AJ ability to get panicky.

    The real loser last night was...... Fury.

    Fury could have fought Joyce and flumbasted him for 12 rounds.

    Another ZERO and another big feather in his cap.

    Fury should be closing the show as THE heavyweight of the past 7 years.....instead he's fucking about.
