    Joshua won easily, but played safe. Disappointing. Can't do that against the better fighters.

    He should pack it in imo and do a few exhibition fights if he needs a few quid.

    Amusing that they were mentioning Fury....... Not a chance he will get in the ring with Fury.

    Fury is probably the last fight worth having for him in my opinion (though I still think he should retire).

    I'd expect Fury to beat him handily, but I'd expect it to be a lot of Fury showboating and clowning around, making Joshua miss etc.

    His other options are people like Joyce and Wilder who I think might do him serious damage if he tries to go toe to toe once he's been caught.

    He'll probably fight Joyce, White and Parker then retire. He's had a decent career but come up short against the best

    He's just not good enough to fight the best imo. Hell of a physique on him btw but just not good enough to challenge at the top end of the game.
    Mainly because I don't think he gives a ****.

    AJ, as a young fighter, was hungry and a wrecker. Always remember him putting Klitshco away and thinking he was going to be at the top for a long time. Now he seems to want to box his way through and has almost forgotten how to let his hands go heavy. He wont have lost that power. I dont know where he goes from here.

    He doesnt need money. Massive respect he wants to keep getting in that ring. Anyone who steps in deserves credit. Just not sure what legacy he can build now as he looks way short of a Fury fight, which is about the only legacy fight for him.

    Feels like boxing, at the higher levels, gets worse each and every 'fight'

    AJ needed to put him away inside 4 rounds, he needed to be so much more quicker and decisive. He gets put away easily by Fury so he can only be fishing for more money calling Fury out.

    Boxers are funny buggers mate. He will be certain he can beat him. Same as Ryder will think he is going to beat Canelo. As fans we can see it, as a boxer I bet he doesnt.

    Don't normally bother much with Boxing, but watched that Joshua fight last night. Slimy Hearn saying about wanting the big fights (Saudi money) with Fury. From my limited knowledge of the sport and from want I've seen,Joshua nowhere near Fury at the minute. Noticed he's still persistent with the odd ball post fight interviews aswell.

    He is finished as a top heavyweight and needs to hang up his gloves.

    Good fight coming up. Joyce should win but I think the other fella is a really solid pro.

    I'm expecting a statement win from Joe Joyce tonight.

    I watched Zhang v Hrgovic, which I though Zhang won, but both were poor.

    Joyce is ready for a title fight.

    Should be canny. South paw test with a massive bloke who hits like a beast.
