Dillian Whyte coming into fight in seemingly all time best shape

Im with Moses to obliterate Whyte within 4 rounds.

 

I want to see Whyte pressure Itauma to the ropes, weather all his punches with a good guard and positioning and when itauma is with his back to the ropes I believe it can become interesting. I think Itauma needs the space behind him and I wonder how good he will be switching to a stationary defense...
Itauma is stillthe favorite

 

I still think Whyte is shot and gets clipped early.

That said, way way more excited about the fight now I’ve seen his condition

 

Whyte will **** himself, barely throw for 4-6 rounds then get stopped.

 

I wanna see what Whyte does on fight week. He usually runs his mouth, but when facing Fury he was as quiet as a mouse in the build up. Whatever he does I expect Itamua to be too good and get the stoppage between 4-6 rounds, but he should try something and see of he can find a mental or anger chink in Itamua that we haven't seen before.

 

Looks too lean to me...overtrained on old legs. Will go down quicker and not recover.

 

Whyte is shot to pieces, is this even a good pay day?

I can’t see how he does anything against Itauma.

id love to be wrong because I think Itauma is a hype job but Whyte is just too plodding and lost his punch resistance.

Ebenezer the 60 year old bloke gave him all he could handle lol. Whyte did look in ok shape in that one too. Just ponderous lol

 

I agree with this, but let’s be real — as much as I’m a Whyte fan, he was inactive and looked sluggish against Tetteh, who Clarke dusted in under a round. If Dillian’s got any hope against Itauma, he’s gotta get in Moses’ head early. Rattle him at the face-off, treat him like a cocky kid, and bait him into swinging wild for openings.

The Whyte we saw against Tetteh? That’s an early KO waiting to happen. He needs to bring something bold, unorthodox, and outside the box this fight week, or it’s curtains. Here’s hoping Whyte can channel some Cher vibes and turn back time for this one.

 

I’m not sold on Itauma yet but after Whyte’s last few performances I think anything less than an emphatic win for Moses will lower the hype.
As always I’m hoping for a competitive fight. My feeling is early stoppage for Itauma though.

 

Agree with the sentiment here that Itauma will be too fast and too slick for Whyte. At least he's in shape but that is unlikely to help much with his slow feet and his telegraphed left hooks. He will be done inside 4 to 5 rounds imo.

 

Moses looks like a blown up cruiserweight , or a small HW because he only 20 years old..

Vs a big HW we will see how the weight effects him allround .. Dillian is a good test , specially a motivated one..

Looking forward to this fight ..

 

Itauma is an exciting prospect, untested but this will be a good test for the lad.

I wouldn't call him a hype job.

 

Whyte looks in great shape, sadly with his inactivity and age, its only going to be cosmetic.

 

Having thought about it more, this makes a lot of sense
