Moses Itauma vs Anthony Joshua

moses itauma, but i,m not 100% sure

 

AJ is a bodybuilding bum

Ituama has more natural talent very evident but he could falter if stepped up too quickly even though AJ is a bum he was a top flight heavy at one point even though he was coddled and manufactured. In this division if you try to jump steps you will get chinned. Ituama can surpass AJ but it will take 5 years of hard work and dedication plus decent management. Stick ituama in with Bakole it would be a bad night. No shortcuts in this game. Ituama does have the benefit of having sparred top flight heavies very young so he can clearly handle himself somewhat and will know when its time to step up, now he's on the rise he wont get them sparring opportunities again outside of Fury and Usyk who are so far ahead they will happily take good work off him.

 

Way too early for Ituama. Could he catch AJ and have the fight go like the Dubois fight? Sure. But AJ is so much more experienced, that isn't likely. What IS likely is Ituama getting one hell of a chin check -- that could go sideways real quick.

I don't think you want a serious prospect's first big step up being against a former champ who is bigger than him, probably stronger than him, far more experienced than him, hits just as hard, and isn't old.

And AJ would never take the fight anyway. What's in it for him? He wins, he's a vet beating up on a prospect, where's the honor in that? He loses, lol, you just lost to dude with all of 12 fights under his belt.

 

Actually, Bakole seems pretty hittable, and he seems to take a bit to get warmed up and going. I'd of course have to bet on him due to the experience, but if Parker could catch him early on and one-shot him? Ituama appears to hit a hell of a lot harder than Parker.

 

AJ exposes Itauma and all the Morons on this forum. It will be ugly and fast.

 

It didn't look like that in AJ's last fight.

 

He is way to experienced and skilled to beat up a young untested guy like Itauma..
You have to be ignorant to believe otherwise..

 

Moses for sure

 

Obese Bakole on 1 nights notice plodding into Parker living on a prayer is not the Bakole that would turn up against ituama although Bakole is starting to look like a lazy sod who would falter but he's still more proven out than ituama

 

Exactly... It'd probably look like Joshua-Ngannou all over again.

And if anything, Ngannou was more proven then than Itauma is now (going 50/50 with an unfit legit contender and knocking him down before losing on points shows both genuine power and durability that Itauma hasn't necessarily proved, yet).

Even in a mentally fragile state and shopworn from fighting most of the genuine contenders of his era, Joshua would still have way too much.

 

Even thou Moses is still very young, I don't think AJ would go near him for love of money.

 

The time is right for this fight, Joshua is finished and Itauma is young and fast and also has skills a few levels above Joshua, Itauma should not be afraid of Joshua because he does not pose any danger...

 

Itauma obliterates him im confident. He does everything better than aj, aj has no advantages beyond size and experience. joshua has never beaten a younger puncher, he's not going to start here

 

Do you guys do your research? The fight will never happen because they both train at the Ben Davison Performance Centre. Same reason why Wardley won't fight either of them in the current future unless their training situation changes.
