    Sort of true. He lacks a true power punch, but has stopped decent fighters like Dimentrenko and Ustinov with his jab.

    He has enigmatic power, leading to recent speculation that he is a converted southpaw.

    The only question is if Gassiev catches Itauma. But let's be real, it's gonna be a beatdown. Moses' southpaw stance is pure kryptonite for Gassiev

    Back foot southpaw stances are, any of the southpaws he's faced that come forward or try to mix it up, he obliterates.

    He's not bad against some of the slick ones either...

    Opetaia knocks out a couple of nobody bums and gets his face broken by a 40 year old in the process, who he takes 8 rounds to stop, but they think he beats Gassiev in 2, lol the boxing community!

    Itauma is unproven, but beating Gassiev would prove little.

    As said, Gassiev is a shell of his former self but if he lands that left hook on anyone like he did on Pulev they are going to be in trouble

    We saw Hrgovic who I consider to have the best chin in the division eat flush left KO hooks like that of Adeleye, whether they were single ones or numerous ones in quick succession, and he was able to withstand it. I'm not confident even he could withstand getting caught clean by Gassiev's left hook like that, especially multiple ones in quick succession and he has a ridiculous chin so what effect would it have on lesser or far lesser chins than his?

    Moses should stop Gassiev because, as said, Gassiev is a shell of his former self, and Moses is much younger, much bigger, much fresher, much faster and much more athletic and he's elusive, skillful and very powerful too but even if Moses does have a very good chin if Gassiev lands that left hook clean he's going to know all about it or maybe not until he regains consciousness

    It might prove he’s got a chin if Gassiev can land on him
