    Now Whyte will magically become a banana skin who wasn't shot, and Moses has beaten his first legit contender.

    I'd hoped Whyte was going to be able to make things interesting and answer a question or two - sadly it really does look like he actually was as shot as it appeared, and we know no more about Itauma than we did before...

    Still, it'll raise his profile a bit, I guess.

    I’m getting Gerry Cooney vibes from Itauma. Icing aged names in a single round, until he gets chucked in there with Holmes/Usyk and the rest is/will be history…

    All remnants of reflexes and punch resistance have disappeared from Whyte and he knew it getting into the ring.

    It is pretty funny how Moses can't even legally buy a beer in the US yet.

    Atlas was right, he said it would last less than 3 rounds.

    Hey, a broken clock :D

    I need a pic of him standing next to Usyk (actually 6'3") or AJ (actually 6'6") to judge his height properly. Whyte is clearly not actually 6'4".

    I also thought Whyte would still have something to offer but to see that display its clear Whyte has absolutely nothing left.

    At least it was a quick fight, I can focus on the rugby now.

    He looked like Evander in the Vitor Belfort fight.

    Whyte's little chicken dance will likely be my last memory of him.

    For his sake, I hope it is.

    He’s not fought anyone in top 20 and 3 of his last 4 opponents have been aged 42, 41 and 37….
