Joyce's tactics were totally wrong so he can right that at least and he can't do any worse than he did last time out. He can also not be unlucky in that his eye started swelling so quickly so he obviously thinks he can do better. Only time will show if he can but Zhang has to be favourite..
Joe Joyce's performance against Zhang was pretty poor defensively - I would have thought he'd have been better fighting a different southpaw before activating the rematch clause (if that were possible).
It's asking a lot to make the adjustments he needs within one training camp.
Also got to say that Eddie Hearn seems to have signed a diamond of a prospect in Andy Cruz.
I suppose the only caveat is that he'll be 28 in August and will need to be fast tracked.

DTM i just got back my authenticated Ricardo Finito Lopez signature from PSA, what a sweet signature he has.
