A AJ vs Wlad went through the exact same thing, it took him 3 rounds to get out of it which is why a lot of people say Wlad let that fight slip, luckily for AJ Wlad was 41. Unluckily for Moses, Hrgović is not 41.
Same thing ol' Bricktop claimed when Dubois took 3 knees versus Lerena. Claimed Dubois tore his ACL. Nevermind that Dubois never showed a limp or that he was struggling to move correctly. Bricktop always be making excuses for his fighters and idiots always eat it up.
He got hit a few times and was marked up though. Boxercise Ben was swinging that towel he was so scared Itauma would get sparked.
He actually got hit with quite a few solid punches. Way before he completely gassed, too. And he didn't look like he was taking them all that well. He was grimacing and looking a little off. And Hrgovic ain't a murderous puncher. Lord help this kid if he gets in with a real puncher and eats shots while gassed.
Hrgovic took your boy’s best shots and came back in that 9th with his own. Had itauma staggering all over the ring like a drunk. Eventually collapsing down in that corner with the corner throwing in the white flag He lost. Fair and square. Deal with it
I don't remember which round it was but he definitely got hit flush on the chin with a straight right when Hrgovic really planted his feet too. And he definitely did NOT absorb punches to the body well either.
