dwarfed by the two men who both stand 6'6 the rebuild and the reboot Begins for Joe Joyce what does the Juggernaut have left how much SC issue did the Jang defeat leave behind at the age of 38 is he still a viable heavyweight to the top end of the division for cash Ali it's a chance to take a big step forward a night that can change his boxing career so important this one to both of them but N More so Richie than Joe Joyce absolutely he needs a big display here tonight Joe Joyce needs to make a statement needs to look good and on that front foot back to winning ways aash Ali he's a heavyweight you never know in this game he's just got to try and catch um Joe with a big shot I don't think he's going to right Point Joe Joyce so maybe look for a shot early on like that one there which is not too far away but yeah he's up against it most definitely but Joe Joyce has got to look good tonight Fletch Joe Joyce a career heaviest in there tonight six PB heavier than his second fight with X ja and he's three and a half Stones heavier than cash Ali in the tonight I think the big question is the punch resistance we've all always just presumed that Joe Joyce can take anything that wasn't the case against xile xang he's convinced there still plenty left he wants a p to the heavyweight pip but he simply has to impress tonight come through it get the win and show everybody that there's enough left decent jab there from cash Ali got to try and find that right hand over the top I think one once Joe Joyce finds the body then the question mark will be over cash Ali how far he can go in this contest cuz we know Joe's he's big downstairs with those uppercuts and that's what he'll try and do back cash Ali up and then switch the attack downstairs first strange of Delila inside the arena from the Nathan hey fans who we're looking forward to the top of the bill so far in this opening round it's been Joe Joyce coming forward and pushing cash Alli backwards out for the first time since September when he was stopped in the third round at Wembley by G xang the two defeats last year the first two of his professional career and he says tonight is about a good win and getting people talking about him positively again got to keep that left hand nice and high Joe Joyce he's here cash Ali just sitting back just waiting for the opportunity to land that right hand over the top so it's got to be a cautious approach from Joyce with that jab and then like I say switch downstairs to the with the body shots let's go bro let's [Applause] go Bon shot from Ali hasn't thrown too much in the first round Joe Joy yet to really catch him [Applause] clean it's been a stalking job in the main in this first round for the juger just looks to try and let his hands go towards the end of it up mobile but of course the standard of fact that Joyce has been in with is significantly better and he does know that he's here at the as The Whipping Boy tonight he's in there cash alley to make Joe Joyce look good he sparred with him back in 2019 and he did say rich in the buildup that the manner of the Jang defeats have just given him the confidence to go in there tonight and try and cause the surprise yeah absolutely and why not this is a little bit better from Big Joe Joyce using that lead hand just to measure things cash Ali you know he's he's he's in survival mode right from the word go here you can see what he's doing staying on the outside just trying to land the odd shot the right hand over the top Joe Joyce has probably got up the tempo here Joe Joyce is coming forward Richie with the intention to do damage but he's not really letting his hands go to this point he's been pretty tentative yeah t Joe Jo yeah there's the shot you see there's that right hand over the top from M that was a good punch [Applause] indeed on back him on the back of course one thing we don't know is how psychologically damaging this Yang defeat to only Joe Joyce knows what he feels like when he's in there see Alli can't afford to stay in that corner he's got to move there's the shot from Ali that bounces off the head Joe Jo he's always been susceptible to that overhand right and he's always taken it Remar well it's only the janga that makes you wonder whether that's still going to be the casean everyone can see it coming but um that just bounced off Joe didn't it he's won 21 of his 23 fights two defeats he stopped 12 his opponents Joe Jo just having a long lingering look into the crowd here yeah still feels to me Richie as though he's in the feeling out process Joe Cho yeah he's he's getting he's warming more into the contest you see there's the right hand you know it's going to come I think Joe Joy just got to step on the gas here really just go for it oh that was a crunching body shot there to the body right as well though before that from cashi and Richard to in his corner is just simply shouting do it again do again because they know it's there all the time final few seconds of the second round this one scheduled for 10 at heavyweight to be expected probably obviously because of the Jang defeats but nevertheless I think now you know yeah I'm expecting this he's got to up the tempo Joe Joyce he's had a look at his opponent who's in survival mode who's just trying to land the odd right hand over the top so you know the tactic there but put on a bit more pressure now and put him under Start Throwing more leather that's what Joyce has got to do needs to be a bit more aggressive start to let the punches go cash Ali backed into his own corner with his coach Richard Towers Belling instructions behind in Joe Jo just falling short with a lot of these punches what you can't afford to do Fletch is is for Joe Joyce he can't afford to to give cash Ali any confidence cuz that's what's happened him working better with his job cash Ali off those ropes he's expecting Joe Joyce to to come at him more and more and the longer this goes the more he'll fancy it so Joe Joy like I say he's got to up the tempo a little bit and really make it uncomfortable for cash allei who at this stage boxing on the back foot and he's doing his job seems like there's an element of building the confidence of Joe Joyce early in this fight maybe convincing himself that he can still do it it's okay going through a training camp and doing the sparring but there's nothing like the real thing couple of decent shots there from Joe Joyce it didn't seem a lot but just the the body language of cash Ali goes for a walk he's trying to again right hand over the top belting shot bounces off Joyce and fires him into action that's better though from Joe Joyce backing cash alley to the ropes and letting his hands go I mean he's not devastating Joe Joy but the clubbing shots everyone he throws to behind him it's over 20 ston is behind them when they Landing shots [Applause] only get two t that's better not again too technical but it always does surprise me why over the course of his career someone's not worked out how to help him avoid that overhead right's go it's the one big hole in the Joe Joyce defense coming over yeah sometimes little bit too predictable going forward that's his problem you know he's going to jab let's go and then you obviously the opponent's just throwing the right hand over the top sometimes you're beating him to the punch where's the Bell not too far for cash Ali to walk but Ro the end of that round being fought in his corner so Brad Pauls has a big chance tonight up against Nathan Heeney let's see from him Liam Davis fighting for the IBO super baton weight title against Eric robbles this is Joe Joyce on the comeback Trail in the ring against cash allei and we're into the fourth round of 10 here heavyweight just trying to work out Richie how the balance between Joe Joyce just needing to win tonight and Joe Joyce need need to look good in doing so well yet he needs both doesn't he but for me tonight like I said at the start I think he needed to look good and at this stage he's not looking that good to be quite honest but now he's sprung into action I think his Corner would have told him to get on that front foot this is better work this is the Joe Joor that we want to see sustained pressure switching the attacks head to body starting to sustain the attacks and throw more punches heavier shots cash Ali back into his corner there's that looping right hand again he feels like he can throw it will but these shots downstairs they will start taking their toll on on K Ali you see the signs just getting up close was holding on to to Joe Joyce solid left hand there from Joyce but Ali got his guard held high he said he wants to fight three times this year but of course that's going to be dictated by how he does tonight and in the future Joe Joyce there are big fights out there for him if he's got enough left yeah massive fights is aren't there now with all these shows in Saudi Arabia there's big money to be earned as well we'll look at the two boxes that he's beat and where they've gone Joseph Parker and Daniel de look at the fights they've been involved in and earning good money and you know they they've they've responded well and they've recovered from those defeats from Joe Joyce and they've G on to bigger and better things so Joe Joy's got to pick himself up from those J defeats needs to get the win tonight walk back he's got to try and look good doing it little bit better in this round starting to work better now and up in the tempo going through the gears a little bit better from Joe Joyce from cash Al's perspective though Richie there haven't been too many if any moments of Crisis to this point I mean he's looked relatively comfortable in there despite the fact that Joyce is the one coming forward but all of a sudden these body shots can take their toll Fletch he's done well up toight cash Ali go go there's the right hand again the SWAT spraying off the head of Joe Joyce let's go again go left hand this side from Ali who's backed into his own corner you idiot only question that didn't need to be answered tonight was whether Joe Jo still at the punch resistance and he's taken enough right hands to this point to tell you that he can still see them bounce off him yeah he's took he's taken a of big shots as [Applause] Joe he's just got to keep going asn't he and take after the nickname the juger that's what he's got to do got to work a little bit better with his jab though keep measuring that distance and GAP and just keep the pressure on got to be front FR pressure from Joe Joyce he's not a back foot fight certainly not that's a little bit better there you go I think it's the body shots that will have have the most effect K again just throws that Wild One Shot wasn't too bad at all you can almost close his eyes and just throw it he knows he's going to land and everyone knows it's going to land yeah good bunny shot there from choice he's got some local support cash Ali tonight he was born in Birmingham fascinating character by his own admission he's known as the man who bit David Price in his early years he worked out at the the Engle JY in Sheffield he's worked with the forall world champion Tim Withers spoon he's trying to cause an upset here against Joe Joyce and changed the course of his boxing career in the process yeah he's just urging and egging um Joe Joyce to come forward but that's better work from Joy switching the attack again body to head got to keep behind his jab though there you go behind that jab measure the distance and then throw that right hand can't neglect the jab need hand maybe we got to give cash Al a little bit more credit here watching a clever fight on there on the back foot it looks negative but he's just waiting for the opportunity to land that single right hand over the top and he's getting through these rounds Jo missing with a lot of punches in there come on bro now let's go still really looking to land a solid one to really good cash Ali something to think about he continues to throw the right hand over the [Music] top Joyce digging to the body and then trying to double up to the head as well 40 seconds to go in the fif every rounds followed a similar pattern Joe Joyce on the front foot coming forward throwing more punches but C still looking dangerous with that right hand over the top and still seemingly in control of what he's in there to do boing a clever fight K Ali he been successful with the odd shot over the top I don't think you're going to stop Joe Joyce coming forward that's his style but he's there to be hit and occasionally cash Ali yeah he's just whipping that shot over there's the V to end the fifth let's bring in KL Frampton who's with us tonight KL what are your impressions of what you've seen from Joe Joyce through five rounds tonight second shck defeat in particular if it's knocked his confidence for six and he's got to rebuild it yeah well what what's has surprised me though um fet he's coming at 20 stone 20 stone6 is it's the biggest we've ever seen him and um that certainly doesn't help in terms of if you if you want to box I think anyway with a bit more Speed and Agility it's going to slow you down if anything but that's my my opinion but um you know they've opted to come in much heavier than normal and I think he's having a detrimental effect to be quite honest Richard Towers continues to Bellow at cash allei I think they're quite confident that their man's got enough artillery to pull something off here and I think Richard Towers is a bit disappointed at the moment and he's not throwing the left hook followed by the right hand on a more regular basis that's the instruction that's coming all the time well cash Ali's growing in confidence and so is the corner but again he's on that back foot and it's just you just see fleeting glimpses don't you from cash Ali the OD shot here and there there certainly not enough work coming from him to be winning the contest on the back but he's got to throw more but when he does throw yeah he's connected with some good shots I think the eye catches have come from him most definitely but it just hasn't been enough of them to win a round for me halfway through the six second half of the fight come on get it on him bro on him joce working behind the jab there's the right hand again from Ali went for the oneall over the top as well egged on by his Corner Joyce then Landing a right [Applause] himself I mean the issue is Richie we're not judging Joe Joyce ultimately against cash Ali tonight we're asking the question whether he could still compete at the top end of the heavyweight division when you think about the quality in there the amount of good fight at the top end we're looking at Joe Joyce through those eyes aren't we rather than against cash alley tonight yeah I agree with you there and if we looking at him through those eyes then at 20 stone 6B then I don't think he should be at that weight competing at that level CU certainly he's too easy to hit there's no head movement a little bit too slow on the feet yes he's the Juggernaut keeps coming forward front foot pressure but um far too easy to hit in in cash allei is CAU him with some good [Applause] shots decent CH from Ali speared through the guard of Joe Joyce final few seconds at the sixth round there's the B rich demeanor tonight Joe y Joe's Joe isn't he there's not a he's more or less the same in in most contests very calm in all situations is Joe Joyce I just think in in this contest now it's cash Ali that's grown in the confidence and Joe again similar pattern come out that he's starting to throw more shots and this is a little bit better maybe it's the the corner that said listen you've got to get this kid out of there he's always been very good at grinding the opponent down they call him the jugg up for a reason he's a big man that keeps coming at you keeps throwing shots he can break your spirit as well when your big shots bounce off him and that's what's been happening to cash Ali tonight those right hands have found the target with great regularity but Joyce hasn't taken a backward step and into the seventh round here just signs the choice he going to start to up the work rate throw more shots and really ask some questions of his opponent yeah there's a sense of urgency Now isn't there about Joe Joy so that would have come from the corner and said look you've got to you know throw more shots here and that's what he's doing now JoJo starting to come forward a little bit more he's up in the tempo going through the gears gets caught with a good shot there from Ali what can cash how can cash Al respond the the higher work rate from Joe Joyce he's landed good shots cash Ali just not enough of them oh that was a good left H all to the body there from Joe Joyce and cash Ali Just hangs on a little bit longer just grabs a few vital seconds there yeah left up definitely troubled him B Shan again from Joyce and from Ali yeah the signs are starting to show now from Ali's a little bit of distress there again a little left hook on the inside Ali grubs just holds on a little bit this is where Joyce has got to seiz the initiative here yeah first real signs of distress Joe Joyce walking him down throwing a lot more punches here in this round than we' seen big round seven for Joe Joyce feels like a big moment in the fight for cash Ali good work from Joyce accurate shots to the Head nothing really coming back now from cash Al who's got his mouth open all of a sudden he looks as though his Tank's empty yeah body shots that's what slowed him up Fletch early on in in this round good left up to the body FL started the ball rolling there didn't really recover from it and you know he should get through the round last 10 seconds but much better round for Joe Joyce it's the Nathan hey fans you can he singing around the arena as Joe Joyce goes about his business and there's the Bell more rounds you might need to step it up but he agreed with us Richie he thought that was a better round for his man so we'll see whether he can build on that here as they come out for the next one if he does get a stoppage tonight against cash Al he'll become the first man to stop him Joe Joyce now sorry cash Ali now just coming out on that front foot so he's fighting fire with fire here so Joe Joyce has just got to keep going and really step on the gas but fair play to cash Ali and there's that right hand over the top again Joyce responds with a right hand of his own I mean it must be quite demoralizing if you cash alley and you're Landing that right hand as regularly as you are and you know you're catching him clean and he's not taking a backward step I mean that is typical of Joe Joyce apart from the X Jang fight yeah bouncing off him I'll tell you what you know cash Al is a one tough guy he really is he's took a lot of shots now as cash Al downstairs been hurt a couple of times but he's got through the rounds this is a big test for him now I think Joe Joy senses that that's why he's up in that work rate again cash Ali clever kid on that back foot and just trying to abide a bit of time again I don't think it's overstating the point either to say that the longer the fight's gone on the more confidence seems to have come back into Joe Joyce yeah and I thought it would be the opposite I thought um would be cash Ali trying to land a shot early on in the contest um then he would have most effect but fair play to cash Ali as the contest has gone on also he's gaining he's growning confidence as well flet you know so fair play to him but now he just get the sense that Joe Joyce is up in the tempo and he senses that he can get a victory here netflex and get a stoppage let's see just over a minute to go in the eight and oneway traffic in there bar the occasional right hand over the top from Ali it's the body work that's doing the damage in general from Joyce that's what's slowed cash Ali down [Applause] race trying up from cash Al now he looks a tired fighter in there Richie it's constant Relentless the pressure isn't it he's always on top of you Joe Joyce he never really gives you a second doesn't do anything flashy doesn't do anything fast but he's always there right in front of you throwing shots and you don't get a second to breathe just keeps coming keep just keeps coming predictable in the style but that's why he keeps getting caught here and there but nevertheless very strong indeed and good switch of attack there three or four shots downstairs cash Ali Mighty relieved to hear the Bell he could do more Steve Bron saying to Joe Joyce you think you're tired he's tireder than you so two to go and the riot act has been read between rounds to cash alley from his coach Richard Towers I actually agree with Steve Bron I think um cash Ali is more tired than Joe Joyce and these body shots are really having an effect and they're tiring um cash Ali those little shots like there little left o to the body there see casali just try and hold Joe Joy stopping punching see that shot there was woeful there from Joe Joy she's got to get closer knows better that's a little bit better from him again I just think it's his size it's just letting down for me and as I say that he's starting to land some Bigg shots now downstairs the juger or continues to plow forward I think he'd love to get the stoppage if he can there's a solid body shot that was whipped in by Joyce cash alley in full Retreat mode now hardly anything coming back at all all about survival for him I tell you what though Flex there's not many people that I spoke to before this contest expected cash Ali to be going into the ninth round of a 10 round here with Joe Joyce slip in the corner yeah fair play to Joe Joyce there he could have just carried on but um he knew cash Ali was in a bit of distress and slipped and stopped boxing good little shot there from Joyce yeah Mike be getting close to a finish he's absolutely shattered he's on shaky legs cash alley is this the moment for Joe Joyce minute to go in the nin nothing coming back Kevin Parker very close to the action taking long looks at Cash alley Joe Joyce continues to pile on the pressure continues to land to head and body cash Ali's got 50 seconds to survive we'll do well to get through this cash Ali Fitness seems to have disintegrated in this round oh another big left up downstairs from Joyce senses the victory he's going for it here nothing wrong with Joe Joyce's engineed 30 seconds to go in the ninth can cash allei get through it Joyce continues to [Applause] land all he's done for the majority of this round is cover up and take the punishment Joyce looking for a big shot the cumulative effect of these punches have just ground him down the longer the fight's gone on yeah especially the body shots short left UPS on the inside well he does matter manag to hear the Bell that's the way he thinks he can press his buttons with a round to go um there'll be a lot of mixed views on that won't there but um cash Ali like I said who would have thought he' have got to the 10th round in this contest I certainly didn't and a lot of people didn't either' be fascinating to know what the the feedback is on the messages that have been given between rounds in the cash alley corner I mean I've got to say I think he's been really Brave in there I mean he's on a hiding to nothing really he's one tough kid cash Ali there's the right hand that detonates off the head of Joe joyon just bounces clean off him and again that's what Richard Towers wants isn't it and he knows he can produce that shot Joyce digs to the body then to the head every time he lands a body shot now you can see him wins cash alley can he get the final round stoppage he's only been the distance once Joe Joyce that was against Brian Jennings stopped Daniel dubar in the last round Joseph Parker in the 11th but he might well have to go the distance here based on the sheer bravery in there of cash Ali who's looked absolutely shattered for about three rounds now but he's in there hanging on through sheer fighting Spirit sheer bottle has got to this cash Al he's been hurt several times in these last two or three rounds and he's just got through it hasn't he well if he does Go the Distance he going to be a wide margin points win for Joe Joyce and he is going to be successful on his comeback after those back-to-back defeats against Gile Jang you're almost kind of rooting for cash Ali now to hear the final Bell though aren't you to get him over the line just over a minute too Joyce continues to come forward Alli up on his toes digging deep trying to find a little bit more he'll see it as a real success if he can hear the final Bell he'll also wonder tonight when he turns the light off having hit him clean so many times in the right hand why he couldn't maybe cause a sensation another another yeah there was a good left up that went in from cash Ali as well JoJo take just taking his foot off the gas in this last round when you expected him to pour it on maybe he's feeling the pace referee not happy about something there he's almost got to get where he has got to get on his tiptoes hasn't he Kevin Park even try and look them in the eye into the final 30 seconds Joyce can continues to attack there's the right hand again from Ali and from jce that was a good shot short shot is down and he's going to have to find anything he's got to try and get back to oh he's counted out he tried his best to get up Joe Joyce gets the stoppage and it was a beautiful short sharp punch that put cash Ali down and the jugernaut with a smile on his face can celebrate the as he takes the first step along the road to putting the X Jang defeats behind him he gets a stoppage win on his [Music] comeback
