    Sound was out of sync on the MTK stream, tried it on 4 devices and same on each

    Good first round between Joyce and Jennings.
    Jennings definitely hurt Joyce to the body.
    Plenty landed by both. Entertaining.

    Think Joyce has f*cked a rib or something from that body shot.

    Yep he's keeping his arm quite low now to protect it it looks like. Seems to have faster hands than I've seen from him before, not that that's saying much.

    I think Jennings is struggling a bit with the pace. He has his moments but spends a lot of time covering up waiting for Joyce to stop punching.

    Joyce's output is just unreal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,849 ✭✭✭Morrison J


    This is razor close imo. BT gone full Sky propaganda mode tonight.


  • Registered Users Posts: 972 ✭✭✭Deiseboy01


    As I expected Joyce was just too big, strong and busy for Jennings. That said he was caught so may times that you have to think a puncher kos him when he steps up again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,288 ✭✭✭megadodge


    Fair decision. Joyce simply outworked him.

    Only one round gone, but this looks really, really interesting.

    Dubois jab is the key to the whole fight. Gorman having huge problems with it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 972 ✭✭✭Deiseboy01


    Gorman needs to get his own jab going. He's allowing Dubois to walk him down.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,288 ✭✭✭megadodge


    I don't think Dubois is getting ko'd, he's much more physical and doesn't seem to be remotely bothered by anything coming his way.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    Impressive by Dubois so far tbf.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    Quality performance by Dubois. I wasn’t much of a fan or believer of him but that was good stuff. Crazy that he’s only 21.


  • Registered Users Posts: 972 ✭✭✭Deiseboy01


    I'm looking forward to gis next fight already.

    I wonder if Joyce might be an option? I'd say Joyce will avoid him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,288 ✭✭✭megadodge


    Very impressive from Dubois.
    Superb jab, which has been obvious since he turned pro, but it's a thing of beauty.
    Dubois really goes for it, but is so controlled.
    And I think he can really take a punch too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,927 ✭✭✭normanoffside


    Gorman looked panicked from the start. Afraid to Jab for fear of leaving his guard down. Dubios looks great but Gorman looked very amateurish also.

    Joe Joyce is waiting to be knocked out.
