2016 Olympic super heavyweight silver medalist Joe Joyce (2-0, 2 KOs) set himself up for a potential showdown with Dereck Chisora after his devastating win over Rodolf Jozic (4-2, 3 KOs) in the main event of the Hayemaker Ringstar Fight Night — live on free-to-air entertainment channel Dave.

In only his second professional fight, Joyce claimed his second victim with a first round stoppage at York Hall in London. Now his promoter David Haye wants to see him take on former world title challenger Chisora in a blockbuster Battle of Britain bout on the undercard of his May 5 rematch with Tony Bellew.

Speaking after Joyce’s impressive victory, Haye revealed that Hayemaker Ringstar are willing to offer Chisora a lucrative pay-day to take the fight at the O2 Arena in London.

“We are willing to offer Dereck a sizeable six-figure payday to take the fight,” Haye said. “It would be worth as much as Chisora’s European Heavyweight title shot against reigning undefeated 14-0 Champion, Agit Kabayel,” said Haye, insisting Joyce is a match for the best heavyweights in Britain.

The ‘Juggernaut’, described by many as ‘the future’ of the sport, started supremely against big-hitting Jozic with a powerful flurry of body shots. And then deep into the opening exchanges, Joyce’s right hook sent Jozic spiraling to the canvas to bring an early end to the proceedings.

“I made sure I got a good warm-up and was straight in and ready to go,” reflected Joyce.

Haye, also satisfied with Joyce’s performance, added: “I was very happy. He landed beautifully.”

Fellow Ringstar stablemate Willy Hutchinson produced a hearty performance to put Eric Mokonzo away on points and extend his perfect start to life as a professional fighter to 3-0. The Scottish teenager, 19, flew out of the blocks with a series of ferocious punches. The onslaught continued into the second with Hutchinson underlining his exciting potential, landing a barrage of heavy blows. Yet Mokonzo stood firm and traded back in the third when he shook the teen with a fierce jab to force a bloodied nose. Hutchinson, backed by a lively Scottish contingent, recovered well and forced the referee to dock his opponent a point for holding on in the fourth. Patience proved a virtue for Hutchinson as he made a breakthrough to knock down the local Bethnal Green fighter in the fifth. And ‘Braveheart’ Hutchinson eventually ended Mokonzo’s resilience to score a deserved, unanimous decision from the judges after six action-packed rounds.

Elsewhere on the Hayemaker Ringstar card, Islington welterweight Freddy ‘Pretty Boy’ Kiwitt pushed Mitcham’s Jumanne Camero to the limit in a cracking contest, claiming a 78-76 win on points.

Anesu Twala also protected his flawless record, moving to 4-0 following his 40-37 super lightweight points victory over Cardiff’s Rhys Saunders.
