    That's a really poor argument considering every HW in history has lost.

    You've exposed your boxing knowledge by claiming Danny Williams > Mike Tyson

    Fight reminded me a little of David Haye Vs Carl Thompson in terms of how it panned out.

    I agree but like you said he was experienced, put all his energy into trying to get a stoppage, even when it was fairly obvious it wasn't happening, should've paced himself to get the decision or maybe even the KO down the line.

    Make no mistake Moses Itauma is a big bad man just inexperienced, I hope he is able to come back mentally from this the heavyweight scene needs fighters like this his talent, speed, skills and yes even his chin is good for boxing. Hrgovic comes from the Chuvalo mould both Croations and both iron chins, Hrgovic has a solid amateur pedigree and is big and skilled and most importantly tough

    Both Richard Torrez Jr. and Itauma need to come back. Don't go full Anderson.

    Don't be silly if he has the right mentality he can 100% come back and the defeat could well do more for him than a win his 21 most heavys don't turn pro that young let alone have a title fight.

    That the problem with modern boxing too many fools right off fighters after a L like they can not learn from it

    Skills, speed, power, chin, he showed he has it all.

    All he lacks is experience.

    CST80, this man is the definition of a English hype fan

    What a joker, Hergovic didn’t win lol

    He gassed because he fought a shitty gameplan and has a shitty trainer

    I saw him wincing in pain multiple times about 1 minute before he got stopped, he definitely had an injury along with being gassed out.

    He didn’t take much punishment.

    Pride will be the thing most dented when he wakes up, but getting rid of the yes men around him and a proper trainer, no reason tonight isn’t just a tough lesson

    I noticed Itauma slowing down as early as the 3rd round. I also saw him taking in deep breaths after the 1st round. By the the 6th round, his handspeed was slowing. I just didn't expect him to gas this badly.

    Fundamentally, Itauma's defense is not very good either. He uses mostly head movement and reaction speed instead of keeping his hands up. Without stamina, his defense got extremely leaking.

    Fighters are going to see this and keep trying to drag him into deep waters and take him out.
