In the next 18 months to 2 years? Could be another Wembley night. I feel like Usyk will retire if he beats Fury again. Joshua and Fury both coming to the last legs of their own careers, probably fight off in a slightly bigger version of Brook-Khan. You could have Dubois-Itamu fighting for multiple belts in the next 2 years.
Yes, i think Itauma would beat Dubois. His defensive habits, far superior handspeed, punch selection, balance are great positives going into this fight. He would do better than aj i guarantee it and crack Dubois with a mean one. Sure he hasn't beaten anyone but who was Dubois best win before he smashed aj ? Resume don't win fights ability, durability and experience does. Itauma doesn't have that experience though and his chin hasn't been tested but that's what the step ups are for.
Right now I pick Dubois by brutal KO. Itauma has never faced adversity in the ring (amateurs or pro) and never got hit cleanly. If his chin is on his brother Carol's level (grade A-china), he is in big trouble against offensive monster like Dubois
Right now, Dubois by KO, too experienced and too strong at this moment, as GGGunbeatableGGG said, Itauma should still wait for that fight.
I agree Itauma should wait at least two years before challenging for a belt but I believe he's destined to hold at least one if not all.
