    Watched the Joyce Chisora fight... And it settles the debate for me! No way the antiquated fighters of yesteryear compete!!!

    What I watched tonight... impeccable timing! light footwork, men coming in hard... in shape, not an ounce of fat! And the range of technique!!! the defensive genius of Joyce!! How could anyone compete from before the Klitsko era?!!!

    Then I woke up... Listen gang sometimes? its not your own "expert" opinion, it merely takes a casual in the crowd to point out the obvious. My wife looks at me and asks: "Those guys are fighters? they can hardly stand up." "Honey they are so slow... And why do they let the other guy hit them, ohhh wait looks like they are too fat too move." At that point? (this was only the second round ) I took the car in to my buddy for an oil change, as I had seen enough...

    When I came back and watched them stumbling around in the 8th round my wife informed me that "things had actually picked up." I then realized why one should not have loaded weapons in the house as I reflected on the state of the heavyweight division...

    Who was it on this forum that said Joe Joyce would beat Frazier and Foreman?

    this is why only looking at the scale is the dumbest logic of all time. The easiest number to inflate is the scale. ANYONE can be 250 lbs if they really wanted to be. Especially with all the manufactured DNA altering food.

    it’s almost like work ethic means nothing anymore. Only weight and how big ones muscles are.

    these fighters today train to look good. Its the first generation where they are not only soft as piggy poop and never had to work or survive, but their dads are just as soft as they were. Imagine the compounding effect. Generational softness.

      You are obsessed with this!
      How many times have you been told size without the necessary talent means nothing?

      You continually willfully misinterpret this for your Marciano agenda.Good Christ! it's SO PREDICTABLE and SO BORING !

      Joyce is as slow as a tortoise,he has no head movement and no defence ,he will always be in jeopardy against a puncher.

      Chisora is a retread who was never more than a gatekeeper when he was prime,with a 2nd rate ,facile Frazier style without either, the elusiveness .speed, or power .

      I've never seen a post in which it was stated Joyce beats Frazier or Foreman,is this another of your "inventions?"

        They're actually was a thread... People were saying such. I know it's laughable. I just can't believe that guy's come in in the shape they come in these days. I mean they're getting paid good money I don't understand it.

          It's because of the money they get paid. Bach when they had to earn the right to a big payday. Nowadays the public is easily bamboozled because of the internet and how fighters are promoted. Jmo.

            Agreed! But can you blame them for the marketing?

            You can definitely blame them for not showing up ready to fight. No doubt there.

            But in contrast you look at Teofimo Lopez. Pure WBC marketing coupled with enough talent and dedication that he got his first title shot after only 16 fights.

            One can argue, from the fighter's POV this is all a good thing.

            But as with all 'good things' it can be easily abused and you are correct, fighters are marketed to us who turn out to be nothing to shout about right from the get go. Only after we get burnt for the ticket price does it become apparent.

              Not one of his inventions just because you didn't see it. I have seen it myself.

                not to call anyone out but I am pretty sure it was Bundana who was saying this Joe Joyce would be too much for the old legends

                joyce is getting sparked by anyone ranked even in the early 2000s. Heavyweight boxing is the worst its EVER been. It’s never been worse.
