Wembley Arena, London, UK. In the main fight of the show, the Olympic medalist OI-2016 local heavyweight contender (over 90.7 kg) Joe Joyce (14-0, 13 KOs) beat German gatekeeper Christian Hammer (27-10, 17 KOs) and defended the WBC Silver and WBO International belts.
Joyce immediately took the center of the ring, began to drive Hammer. The German rubbed the ropes with his back, brushed off with wide overhands. It turned out not bad – he hit often, but the Briton kept great.
In the second round, the favorite increased the density of the fight, began to work hard on the body. Hammer more and more often hid behind the block, practically did not respond with blows to blows. And as soon as Joyce took a break, the German again marked himself with a couple of wide sweeping hits.
In the 3rd round, the big guys were amused by the exchange. Hammer looked good, but as expected, he could not stand the proposed pace – he took his knee, complained about a blow to the back of the head. The referee opened the score.
In the 4th three-round, the German took the knee three more times, after which the third in the ring decided that it was a pointless exercise to continue all this.

Joyce TKO 4.
He is spectacular, but this is the most leaky defense in the heavyweight elite.
