    See that's the thing isn't it.
    If you want to earn a shot at Usyk right now, you've got to try and go through Parker or Kabayel. As far as I'm concerned anyone not willing to sign on the dotted line to fight one of the two can wait their turn. Chisora and Itauma included.

    Ducked? U mean refused to fight for penauts?

    Hrgovic is the cheapest top 10 fighter to match Itauma for Warren, why should he agree, what does he get if he doesnt get money?

    title shot? even Parker cant get that

    recognition? itauma aint top 10

    also, 2 fights in a row, Joyce and Adaleye had him open up cuts

    So he has to face Itauma with beat up cuts that open, giving Itauma free win if they open again? Yeah, no

    If Itauma wants to fight someone, he should fight Sanchez.
    You know, the guy that was scheduled to fight Ajagba in an IBF eliminator.
    Why is Sanchez being ducked because Top Rank pulled Ajagba after losing the purse bid?

    Parker is an interim champ for a different sanctioning body. Whose about to get promoted to full champ.

    I really like Moses... Im sure Ill become a fan, and guy looks legit.

    But hes beaten nobody. That he could potentially fight for the undisputed championship because he wins his next fight, is kinda stupid to me.

    Meanwhile btw, Parker is fighting everybody and still hasnt gotten his shot.

    Bad look for boxing imo.

    No way either guy deserves to be in an eliminator. Itauma hasn't earned it or proven anything yet. Chisora has double digit losses for a reason. His best win is a md against a 41 year old.

    Itauma's only win has been against an absolutely finished Whyte, who went down with the first glancing blow that landed. The fact his he is one fight away from Usyk is insane really, shows how good Bricktop is as a promoter.
