Moses Itauma vs. Filip Hrgović & Sam Noakes vs. Denys Berinchyk + Nelson Hysa vs. Thomas Narmo RBR.

At least he'd read him the riot act

 

It's one thing to get knocked out by a barrage of punches which overwhelm you like Joe Joyce did against Wardley. Don't get me wrong that's still brutal and you can easily get concussed but when you're gassed and your brain is dehydrated getting punched in the head is a significant threat to your life.

If you look at all the tragic boxing fights where someone gets truly ****ed up you can see their body behaves in a different way to just getting brutally knocked out or losing your bearings when concussed. Itauma at the end just looked so out of it.

 

Moses Hype Train derailed in bad fashion

 

It could also be the worst thing to happen to him,when he was landing bombs on Hrgovic and he was just eating them we all saw the loook on Itauma’s face and the confidence leaving him,and we all know some fighters are never the same after there first loss !

 

At least he admitted he was wrong. The rest of the commentators could barely even try to sidestep their previous extended fellation on the mic. Embarrassing from DAZN.

 

But that lack of adjustment was very costly. I always thought Hrgovic was a dangerous opponent because of exactly what happened. Moses needed more seasoning.

People were writing of filip and not respecting what he brings into the ring just because he is 'lumbering'. That dude is very seasoned and tough, and built for war.

 

My point is just because your'e the most talented and athletic does not necessarily mean the best.

Most talented and athletic for sure - skilled I'm not 100% sure as his shots got pretty ragged later and he kept swinging for the fences which is not that skilled IMO. But deffo better than best, it's clear at this point in his career he couldn't execute to be the best tonight.

 

why did he get so bad? Hrgovic didn't hit him much.

 

I don't want to hear anyone hating on Itauma the man just left on a stretcher he literally gave everything he had in the ring until he couldn't stand no more.

Give the young man respect and wish him well for a speed recovery.

All credit to Hrgovic being the toughest Heavyweight of the modern era and full props for his win.

But I hope everything is ok with Itauma and my prays are with him tonight.

 

A lot of people picked Hrgovic.


Good on them.

 

I thought this fight was gonna be closer to 50/50 but ended yo being one way traffic. Moses piecing up Hrgovic, I'd never seen Filip so shelled up and weary to counter or attack.

Compare that to how filip fought Dubois, he was piecing up Dubois with confidence.

Hrgovic won on chin and heart

 

I think I heard Warren say Itauma somehow injured his leg, possibly when he collapsed against the ropes... though his leg is taped up in any way in that video of him on the stretcher so, who knows....
