    I think we can say Itauma the real deal & should get a shot @ a world belt soon.

    Itauma really impressed me with his speed but I need to see him fight someone good before I cast judgement.

    Franklin has a good chin but is slow and has no power. He would be a middleweight if he lost some weight.

    Even then I'm not so sure. Usyk is old and fighting a kickboxer next and isn't used to fighting fast heavyweights

    Pretty impressive. Itaumas power is the real deal. Im starting to agree with people who are saying hes the next Tyson.

    The way Itouma was breathing he simply looks like a Heavyweight David Lemiux. He's gonna run into issues with someone more durable and can pack a punch.

    Yeah any of those would be good match ups. Probably won't see him in with Fabio anytime soon though as they obviously share the same trainer

    Yeah probably, but Torrez Jr doesn't give a **** about Itauma and would just go in there to try take his head off from minute 1.

    Usyk at this stage is too slow to beat him imo, for once he’d be the slower man in the ring at heavy.

    I am sorry for keep going on about it but this commentary team has ruined the boxing for me

    Hrg is a good fight but they're going to find it hard to get people to fight Itauma. No one will want to unless there is a massive bag on the table.

    I think Itauma possibly dodged a bullet here. He spent a lot of energy in just 5 rounds and Franklin was still there and coming into things a bit before sleep walking into that uppercut. Itauma is definitely very talented but he'll have to learn to pace himself better because someone more talented than Franklin will make him pay for that down the road.

    He's not, he was already gassing in the corner. Franklin did exactly what he was brought in to do, which is go a few rounds and get knocked out. This was never a real test.

    This division needs a kick in the ass, it's nice to see itauma continuing knocking guys out
