    This has KO1 written all over it. Complete opposite to what Itauma needs after a previous quick KO. Wouldn’t mind if this was 2-3 weeks later but come on, it’s 4 months

    Finally we find the purpose of Hyasa. I guess they must have paid him handsomely, because he had established himself as the centerpiece of some very lucrative Albanian/UK cards with a strong ethnic following. I usually refuse to accept "sure things", but I'm content to declare - this time- that Itauma annihilates him within 2 rounds.

    They couldn't even fill up the high school gym when he beat up the principle! That guy is at least 55 years old.

    Hysa himself was probably the PE teacher.

    That wouid have been a very interesting matchup.

    I'm thinking if Usyk doesn't fight Parker for the WBO title, he may be stripped and we will get Parker vs Huni for the "vacant" WBO.

    If you’re Huni you have to take the opportunity but whilst I see him being competitive I think it’s too early for him to be in there with someone as good as Parker.

    LOL guys, this fight is senseless.

    McKean is 100x better than Hysa.

    95% of Hysa's fights are fixed - honestly he's on the level of Lovejoy

    I predict a KO by Itauma in under 60 Seconds

    According to boxrec the Albanian is fighting someone else - some Colombian.

    So still no fight for Itauma. I've heard he may be fighting on the Josh Taylor undercard in Glasgow.

    If he does fight end of May that will be nearly 6 months sitting around since his last fight. That's really poor for a developing prospect.

    Don't worry, Itauma is still too young and has time to develop, the real fights are yet to come for him and he will certainly have a worthy opponent in May, I'm sure of that...

    The bum bashing continues. This dude will be 30 years old before he fights anyone with a real name and record. Industry plant.

    Wake me up when Itauma fights someone with a pulse.

    Seriously he claimed to be wanting to beat Mike Tyson’s record yet he continues to fight bums.

    That's what I'm saying. He's being hyped up like he's the Second Coming, yet he hasn't fought anyone of note, nor shown anything worth mentioning. He's a bum basher grifting off Tyson's name.
