Undefeated professional and 2020 Olympic bronze medallist Frazer Clarke opens up and revealed that fellow British heavyweight Joe Joyce is the third-best heavyweight boxer in the world behind Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.
But on the other frame, World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury declared that Joe Joyce is the second-best heavyweight in the world, overtaking Deontay Wilder in his official rankings.
Tyson Fury exploded his rare statement after he watched the Manchester native, Joyce knocked out his teammate Joseph Parker last year.
Now, Joe Joyce is keenly looking forward to a world title fight in 2023. But, while he's occupied with that target, he wants former amateur rival and ex-GB team-mate Frazer Clarke to exact some revenge on his behalf.
Joe Joyce has a chance to continue making noise in a crowded heavyweight division when he takes on Zhilei Zhang on Saturday night at London's Copper Box Arena.
Joyce won silver in Rio 2016 and is undefeated in 15 professional fights. He is the WBO interim champion and a mandatory challenger for the world title.
Joyce is the current WBO mandatory challenger for the organization's world heavyweight title belt which is currently held by Oleksandr Usyk, and a win over Zhang would surely put 'The Juggernaut' in line for a world title shot next.
