    Imagine the RBR when Itauma chins him.

    Or imagine the RBR when Hrgovic takes his best shots and it has no effect.

    His face is paper mache at this point. If it's not a KO, it's stoppage by a thousand cuts.

    Additionally, he's taken a lot of damage over the years. Can't do it forever (see Joyce).

    I think Moses is coming into his own in these face offs. His opponents never phase him, he never gets animated just straight tells it like he sees it. I suspect he is a scary character to be around, something of the young Foreman 'sometimes smiles/always business' about him.

    I think Itauma is too fast.

    If ticket sales are struggling in London (which they are), just stick an Albanian on the card. Always does the trick.

    Still a fair few tickets left on sale.

    Didn't AJ sell out stadiums and that quickly?

    When I attended AJ vs Usyk 1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium back in 2021, Florian Marku was fighting on the undercard, and I remember seeing a bunch of Mercedes AMG’s with Albanian flags waving behind the cars driving around in London all day hahah.

    Itauma is going to win and win big. Early KO
