If there is a rematch, I see a smarter very cautious Itauma winning a boring decision similar to Joshua Ruiz II.
This is nothing like Ali Foreman Ali was landing big right hands on Foreman from round 1. Ali’s punches backed up Foreman in rounds 3 and 5. Ali was not taking a beating. He took some exceedingly hard body shots but kept his chin well protected. And he was landing enough shots to back Foreman up.
No, Hrgovic won at least two (maybe 3) of the first 8 rounds. The biased commentators were giving him no credit though.
Ali was taking a beating. Also hrgovic was competitive in a lot of rounds Both boxers foreman and Itauma blew their load around the same time in the fight
Itauma rebuilds and gets to the back of the line now, doesn't deserve a rematch because he got conclusively stopped and failed to adjust to the developing situation.
Just think what Vitali at his best would do to itauma. Lol Hrgovic is kinda similar to Vitali but less of a mean streak and less power.
The scores in Ali Foreman were dead even. Hrgovic arguably lost every round until the last one and Ali won at least 4 rounds. Ali was able to protect his chin well and aside from some head shots, he defended well. Hrgovic was taking far more clean head shots
To the untrained observer or itauma dick rider he lost every round. Again, the round by round thread is comical to look at now.
There's been a contant stream of English heavyweight hype jobs since Audley or Price. Why would this be any different lol Shades of Garcia getting 'lucky' against Khan, or him 'Winning' every round before getting KTFO by Canelo
there won't be a rematch.. even if itauma regroups and comes back, he'll stay away from hrgovic.. hrgovic is too much of a beast and he outdid him psychologically.. frank warren and itauma's people will keep him away from hrgovic.. even though hrgovic has a great chin, and was losing most of the rounds, he wasn't getting splattered or beaten from pillar to post.. yes, itauma outspeeded him, but also hrgovic had the mindset that ''im not going anywhere tonight'' hrgovic was nothing that itauma ever seen or experienced in the ring, fights or sparring. i've heard and read about itauma going life and death with fury in sparring, coming to the gym after school and dropping his bag and going at it i think with rikholie.. he was just way overhyped, way too early with a lot being made how he more than held his own with grown adults as a teenager.. yes, he's a diamond in the rough, with great potential, but the way he was hyped up by the british, comparing him with mike tyson and even muhammad ali, ridiculous!!! i he was american, there's no way he would have gotten this much hype this early on.. yes!! he'd be making noise, but wouldn't be getting this much hype this early.. i said before the fight on a few youtube sites that hrgovic was going to take him to a dark place, and he did.. i just hope that hrgovic gets his props and recognition because from early on in his career, he's been calling out names and people were avoiding him..
