FULL FIGHT: Joe Joyce Beats Lenroy Thomas | Commonwealth Title

Joe Joyce pulverised Lenroy Thomas at The O2 on May 5th.

[@aaron3626]

How can anyone hate this guy? His style is so fan friendly and look at the level he’s fighting at just a few fights in his career...

[@smokinjoe8027]

Love the way he just walks off.

[@ellisjames8517]

Haye was right that he just doesn't stop punching proper onslaught, relentless. Well done Joe

[@handyvapereviews2.017]

Ellis James but he's fat from a world class boxer isn't he. Let's all be real against someone like AJ, Fury, Parker, wilder and even Hughie Fury would give hom such a hard time no joke. Still wish him all the best man

[@obitriceforlife5771]

Ellis James you see 🤛 can’t even Ko you

[@ij1749]

People can criticise his style all they want but the fact of the matter is he’s effective with it. There’s a reason he’s one of Britain’s most decorated amateurs. Personally, I can’t wait for him to be mixing it with some of the top 10 heavyweights because his come forward relentless style will make for some cracking fights.

[@iglidraci]

wtf this guy throws punches in slow motion there's no way he matches with any top 10 guys

[@sw1000xg]

Pugilist Specialist and gets knocked out. He's slow punching and clumsy

[@ij1749]

You guys are acting as if the heavyweight scene is stacked full of elite talent lol plenty of guys ranked in the top 10 that have their fair share of flaws. Joyce would 100% give the likes of Whyte, Miller, Takam, Breazeale, Pulev etc all sorts of problems which would make for intriguing competitive fights. I think the champions in Joshua & Wilder and the top contenders in Parker, Povetkin and Ortiz are a level above Joyce at this stage. Not saying Joyce is gona dominate the HW landscape, but just cos his style is not always appealing to the eye doesn’t mean he isn’t any good.

[@FitterfasterukCoUk]

Agreed

[@gatekeeperboxing5898]

His style will make for him getting a pasting from a top class heavyweight. He is so easy to hit it's unreal and a lot of his shots were missing. Lenroy Thomas just did not have the size, the power or the heart to compete with Joyce but any fighter who has all these attributes will find Joyce out if he continues fighting as he is.

[@magnificent7820]

that body shot rocked Thomas to his boots

[@aldoaldi2613]

13:12 Look at Joyce. As soon as that punch lands, he knows it's over long before the ref or even his opponent do. He doesn't even wait for him to fall, he just lets his fists down and leaves.

[@liamlive2972]

so nice

[@derekstewart8175]

Damn he is heavy handed, jesus

[@onthetoilet8397]

It looks like his gloves are full of a heavy pair of brass knuckles.

[@MrBri0523]

Don't use God's name in vain.

[@atifmir7409]

I'm starting to really like JJ. He doesn't talk trash and backs it up in the ring. I can't see many HW's out there wanting to face him, the guy is a relentless wrecking ball, the way he smashed LT down was a sight to see. Definite shades of George Foreman, using his strength and power to bash his way to victory. Probably a good call from Chisora not wanting to fight JJ, it would be a very long but short night. Looking forward to seeing his future fights.

[@GiantSandles]

He obviously hits hard but technically he makes Wilder look like Lomachenko lol

[@darshandesai2304]

tbf he picks his shots well though

[@g.f.2775]

They said the same about george foreman

[@tysonfurytv6489]

IDIOT

[@davidpassehl]

He's way more coordinated than wilder it seems and Joe Joyce moves fairly well for a big man he can do a standing backflip after boxing 10 rounds he's a bad mofo. Maybe not Tyson fury level little bit slow hand speed but he's strong mofo and dangerous heavyweight. Also he seems like one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet very soft spoken and good natured it seems. But hating on this dude he's undefeated and one of the top 10-15 heavyweights.

[@tysonfurytv6489]

@Doodle Bob WHAT IS TRUE?

[@brandonhudson3744]

He’s getting looser and looser every fight. He’s only gonna get better from here

Hey Joyce is a good fighter, give him a break, Lenroy has good movement.

[@ahopkins4477]

That short left completely stopped Thomas cracking shot

[@srprice2383]

Blimey. I thought I had it in slow motion.

[@rockitmorton]

Huge advantage in strength for Joe.

[@jamesjackson6302]

"Clumbersome!"

[@ClassicBoxingMatches]

Id never seen Joyce fight so thanks for this upload. Good heavy punches, dude can take a punch (particularly the body shots) but he does appear quite cumbersome, slow fists you can see coming and awkward footwork. But I can see why they call him the juggernaut! Slow moving but always coming foward and difficult to hurt. That last punch was deceptively effective...

[@liamlive2972]

joe has got great footwork for his size and weight

[@sayd245]

Awesome performance!!!!

[@ugoa.k.atbonenwaogazi591]

Joyce is such a lovely man...at this point I pray u go on to be world champion... what a sport man you are.

[@Mike-tb9xq]

I find this KO hilarious. The way he reaches out after he gets hit he's like "ohh shit nigga, you got me".

[@fluffyluks]

Clumbersome?

[@Liberty_Freedom_Brotherhood]

Carlton Palmer the announcer couldn’t decide between “clumsy” and “cumbersome” apparently! 😂

[@lindasapiecha2515]

😅

[@normandunnaganjr.5034]

This was a prodigious showing that reminded me of those George Foreman KO victories, great stuff from this guy. Super underrated hw. The ko was brutal because a southpaw got countered with a left hook in the process of delivering his left uppercut..ouch. it happened because Thomas cocked his left hand, Joe read him like a book. Thomas moves well for a big man, I didn't expect that kind of quality lateral movement and he had a good left right body uppercut combo, he relied on it too much though

[@ugoa.k.atbonenwaogazi591]

Classic intro .. music is dope as hell so ill

[@johnallen7443]

The commentator says “clumsy and slow” Real fighting doesn’t look like Hollywood Joyce uses his body weight and rotation to move his arms rather than to throw his arms out.... This is a technique used in martial arts and boxing to minimise energy expenditure and to stay efficient Because the whole body is directing the attack it can be less precisely targeted when attached to such a large heavyweight Tyson Fury has found a middle ground between throwing arms and body weighting....which is very impressive because of his accuracy.....but he does have to forego a little power (its physics) Joyce can do this all night unless someone can effectively attack his body early on Joyce’s chin might be a possibility for a Wilder/Joshua or even a Dubois potentially But for most boxers it would need to be body attacks to weaken the juggernaut Don’t be fooled by Joyce’s movement....he will relentlessly flatten you like Foreman

[@kevfreeman5482]

A lot of people complaining Joyce and DD isnt worth ppv, I tend to disagree, I think it will be a humdinger. The stamina he has to deliver so many punches offsets his slow hand speed and he's quicker on his feet than his gait implies. He must have huge natural strength contributing to the punch equation, a bit like George Foreman as others have noted. Hope he comes through this next fight with DD. There's time for DD to recoup, possibly not for Joe. I'd like to see what he can do inside that top ten!

[@johnallen7443]

Kev Freeman I think you are 100% right....

[@tysonfurytv6489]

YOU KNOW IT MAN. DONT GET WHY OTHER PEOPLE CANT SEE IT

[@paulorji1720]

Bro your smart, joy Joyce will cause ddd problems after round 7 and win if not knocked out.

[@loudhalertrue]

That last chop on the chin, so cold. Joyce knew that was the one to end the fight.

[@freeatlast.]

That is one of the coldest punch I seen in a long time

[@brocknichols6405]

Great comparison.....

[@You-Tuber2024]

Wtf have I just watched 😂

[@trelkel3805]

He seems like a more durable and fit Price rather than a Forman. Forman was slow moving but had a great jab and leading uppercut while Joyce just kinda lurches in and starts swinging though his body punches are delivered well if you you let him set and sit on his punches and just stand in front of him.

[@azzagunna8112]

How can you take the dude seriously with that ring walk but credit to him he needs to work on his technique and fluidity but definitely has potential it's only early in his career

[@Torgueuere]

Yeah, just 33 years old. I think it will start to reach hist highest potential when he reach 45 or something like that.

[@amjidkhan2392]

Lenroy entrance. Big tune

[@indiana146]

He’s a work in progress

[@brocklanders1984]

He has the stamina to progress but technically he boxes like a novice. He will get exposed pretty soon and his handlers will have a lot to answer for. Old as he is, they need to slow his career down and let him develop the craft.

[@MrLukedanger]

brocklanders1984 terrible advice and terrible assessment Joyce needs to keep upping his competition

[@brocklanders1984]

Time will tell. It's a risky game to be playing with such a talented prospect IMO. Obviously, he can't now lower his competition level but that could be the problem. He needs to have fought a wider variety of opponents at the domestic level to prepare him better. Styles make fights and Thomas was perfect for him but there are plenty of better/different HW contenders for him to develop against before going up to world level. He has had WSB experience which counts for something but it's still too fast.

[@atifmir7409]

Yes he is a little too open but i think he's trying to progress as quickly as possible due to his age. In doing so he's trying to up his profile by fighting quite an open style, which is fine against lesser opponents, but he'll have to be more careful against AJ. But i can see him beating most of the top 10 like Whyte, Chisora and Parker. The only thing that will beat JJ is a boxer that moves and gets him with a really big punch, like WIlder or AJ. He will run through the HW division using his brute strength. He doesn't stand a chance against Fury.

[@DrPinhead]

People gotta remember he's against Lenroy Thomas, I'm sure against any of the top ten he would be more defensive, reserve energy and pick his shots better. Everyone labelled Parker as awful when he badly-performed against Hughie Fury, then he turned up against AJ more athletic and although he lost, he lost with his head held high. Don't judge Joyce to early because he's relatively unknown on a professional level. Wait til he fights someone who can fight back a bit then judge him as harshly as you want.

[@El_Nino90]

True, but Parker did swallow it in that fight, knew he was down and still didn't go for it, was happy to lose on points... Joyce would undoubtedly go for it.

[@DrPinhead]

yeah Parker should've been more aggressive in the later rounds but the ref didn't help

[@RossKempOnYourMum01]

Against any of the top 10 he would get lit up, he got lit up by cruisereweight Uzyk in the amateurs

[@DrPinhead]

Its as if you're making out Uzyk's bad? and Uzyk's faster thats why, heavyweight boxing is a completely different game.

[@ajfraser7648]

Usyk would box AJ's head off too!

[@limitless1919]

I don’t know how he generates the power he does, but his accuracy is on point

[@tysonfurytv6489]

SKILL

[@tomtom-ec6tb]

JJ has nice slugging power shots that accumulate. The only problem is he is a bit open throwing them and looks off balance. If he works on those and better movement then he should do well. At moment AJ's speed/power combo would destroy JJ, but JJ is progress and in future could have tools to beat AJ (but lots of work!).

[@Mike-qo3dq]

Looking forward to joyce vs Dubois!

[@sheriffabdulrasheed7344]

Great entrance Great ko

[@spursnation4life985]

He wouldn't last in the ring wit a dillian, ortiz, or really anybody thats up there but i would like to see him fight jarrell which would be a great fight the match where both fighters coming foward with one with unbelievable power in Joe and one with a gas tank for miles, great heart, and even more of a great chin so i think thats a good match up

[@DavidByrne85]

This looks like a white collar boxing show. Footwork and balance are all over the place, wailing wide shots with his hands down and chin up, seems he hasn't been taught how to step to his right to cut off the ring. I don't know who's training him but he needs better.

Joe Joyce looks like he’s been boxing for about week, terrible.

[@Mike-tb9xq]

This is my fav ko cause its so funny. When he hits him with hook Thomas is like 'ohhh shit nigga'.

[@ji5073]

I noticed in most of his fights he tends to come in and attempt to overpower his opponents instead of using his reach and jab.....that works with lesser known fighters but as you fight better quality fighters, you need to be more diversified and develop more skills

[@mariosanchez8236]

Here after I fell asleep during one of the 8 rd fights, then proceeded to sleep through the rest of the card, including the Joe Joyce vs "Dubious" Daniel Dubois main event where, from what I've read so far, Joyce jabbed Dubois' left eye shut and, according to a lot of folks, causing Dubois to quit on his feet.

[@simontuffs4106]

People slamming JJ, but watch his other Ko, s he has got some accurate knockouts, see the short left hook that finished the fight, he has hit other people on the chin like that before, very accurate, he does look slow, but I'm looking forward to seeing him step up.

[@hulkbradley1631]

He won't be able to di that against other boxers with matching power. He's really slow too so anyone that's just a tad bit faster than him can catch him clean. He's a beast though, reminds me of a in shape and taller Chris Arreola throws punches in bunches and just uses his heavy hands on his opponents.

[@BenBrooke]

Best walk in ever.

I'll give it to him that he's heavy handed, but to slow the time it takes for him to throw one punch aj n fury would throw 3 or 4 punches..

[@lindasapiecha2515]

If Joe was as slow as everyone makes out he wouldnt land all the shots he does

[@jsdwta]

the thing about joyce is that he got a heavy hands and throws a lot of it, the downpart is that his punches are slow, he needs to learn to throw it faster and quicker

Joyce is a absolute beast! His workrate and physical strength is unbelivable. If he has a good chin he will be hard to beat. This knockout reminded me a little bit of Foreman-Frazier 1. The delayed effect., and the way the punches are Thoren.Joyce looks like a modern day Foreman. Its not pretty and he is slow, but Its very effective.

[@paulanthony5274]

Yeah and Thomas should have swayed at the hips and done more of a shoulder roll making him miss rather than taking those whacks on the high guard cos Joyce won't stop punching,that maybe his downfall,punch him self out,takes more out of you when you miss than land as u well know
