Moses Itauma vs. Dillian Whyte & Filip Hrgović vs. David Adeleye + Nick Ball vs. Sam Goodman RBR.

Hrgovic should definitely refuse to fight Itauma if he is offered the fight...

 

The Future Is Now!...

 

It was no secret that I thought that this was a step too far from Itauma going straight from a good journeyman in Balogun to a seasoned vet/fringe contender in Whyte. Some fighters not even as good as Whyte in Bakole, Allen, Thompson, Joyce have beaten hype jobs before and I thought Itauma would take the step too early here.


However, I put my hands up. This was really a truly excellent win for Itauma, and beating well proven fighters such as Whyte proves that you are a very talented fighter and we have a huge prospect on our hands.


I’m really excited about Itauma in the future, this guy has certainly got incredible potential as a fighter. He may have more questions to answer in terms of stamina, chin, etc but he has answered convincingly the biggest question of all - a certain standard of opposition.


The only thing I’ll say is that I don’t think he is ready for the literal final boss in boxing - Usyk still. But, Kabayel, Dubois, Wardley - if you are capable of beating Whyte, you are capable of fighting seasoned vets to contenders.


I take my hat off to Itauma. That was incredible, I was proven wrong here and I am very impressed.

 

Only thing would have happened was Ituama swarming him and knocking him down even worse. That was a good stoppage.

 

From the ring walk to the opening bell, Whyte looked like he was on his way to getting his ass beat. It looked like a shot fighter who was only there for a pay check.

 

Whyte didn't even throw a punch.

Fair play to Itauma but that's a bitterly disappointing fight.

 

Barely wasted a punch. Incredible hand eye coordination

 

WHYTE WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY THE HYPE WILL BE ****ING UNBEARABLE

 

LOL, I thought they were still walking out.

 

Whyte was grabbing rope from going down, which just made him eat more punches and eventually went down more hurt.

 

fukin joke XD

 

Anyone who is surprised by the result needs to stop watching boxing.

 

Whyte needs to retire.

 

Who taught him this guard lol. He's been watching that Ippo Makunouchi anime or something.

He'd have been better off to have a standard high guard you use against a southpaw and try to swing.
