Joe Joyce is set to defy calls to retire once again and his return is being plotted for the Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn 2 bill.Joyce hasn’t fought since suffering his fourth defeat in his last five fights, a gruelling war with Filip Hrgovic in April.Joyce is set to fight on despite concerns – and could land himself on a big British bill yet againAfter the fight, ‘The Juggernaut’ faced widespread calls to retire, just as he did after his previous defeat to Derek Chisora midway through last year.But he insisted he had more to give to the sport, and was previously in talks over a comeback showdown with bitter rival Tony Yoka.Although now BOXXER promoter Ben Shalom is keen to instead thrust his charge Richard Riakporhe into the mix.And Shalom is hoping that the bout negotiations will be concluded in time for the bout to land on the card.He said: “We’re pushing for Richard Riakporhe to be on this (November 15) card.“A fight against Joe Joyce is a great British heavyweight fight. I always felt that Richard was a heavyweight. “It frustrated me that he couldn’t perform at cruiserweight anymore – much like Lawrence Okolie. “We got him back and he looked brilliant out in Riyadh [victory over Kevin Espindola in May].“I’m excited for him to get into the heavyweight mix. He can do some serious damage now.”Riakporhe has fought just once in the new division since graduating from cruiserweight after defeat to Chris Billam-Smith.He could well run into recent heavyweight debutant Riakporhe – who is being pushed by Shalom into the mixGettyBut he is looking to get his name into the mix, with some big fight cards on the horizon in an exciting time for the division.It is the second big fight that could land on the bill, with Jack Catterall vs Ekow Essuman also in talks to feature on the night.Joe Joyce’s future in boxingThe British heavyweight has now taken a lot of punishment during his career, and is far away from the heights of world level.It would take an almighty rebuild to reach the upper echelons of the division again, and there are health concerns around his future.Joyce has a granite chin and is capable of absorbing big shots, but there are huge signs that natural wear and tear is growing with every punch.The 40-year-old is now getting far beyond his physical prime, but is adamant there is still reward left from competition.Joyce has little time left in his career – and will want to reverse his poor form at the end of his careerGettyBut promoter Frank Warren erred on the side of caution when discussing his future.He said after his last defeat: “He’s got to go and have a real serious think about the future, which is what he will do.“We’ll have a chat and see where we go from there. I’ll be honest, I thought it was a very close fight.“He’s been a great servant for British boxing, he’s never in a boring fight. He’s tough as old boots and done us proud at the Olympic Games.”His future still appears to be in the squared circle, and it appears an announcement over his next move is imminent.
