Joe Joyce has been advised to avoid fighting Deontay Wilder because of the damage he sustained in his last fight against Christian Hammer.
Joyce, 36, fought for the first time in almost a year last weekend when he stopped Hammer in four rounds at the Wembley Arena. It was a fairly straightforward win for 'The Juggernaut', but he still took a lot of punches from Hammer on his way to the finish.
Former world champion turned boxing pundit Carl Frampton thinks Wilder would be a problematic matchup for Joyce because he gets hit a lot in his fights. Frampton has backed Joyce to give every top heavyweight a tough fight, but thinks he would struggle against Wilder.
