    1) what’s the verdict? Too green or just exposed?

    Punched himself out. With more experience he would have coasted to a points win.

    2) why is boxercise Ben getting flack? What did he seem to say in the corner?

    Said fck all which is the issue. Needed to calm him down but instead he came out windmilling.

    looks like they rushed him. Moses didn't seem to know how to react to someone who could take his power and wouldn't take no for an answer. To be fair, a lot of fighters would have been taken out, just seems Hrgovic was very determined.

    Wardley should definitely go into punditry when he hangs them up.

    Ituama after the initial opening rounds and seeing Hgrovic wasn't going to be blown away should of been told OK reign it in box behind the jab.

    Corner work was awful.

    Had Ituama had a good experienced trainer in his corner which is vital especially as you enter world championship level as a young fighter he would of won tonight.

    Put Abel Sanchez in Ituama's corner different result. Davison will be ditched, no doubt and deservedly so.

    Is itauma still British after this fight? Seeing as he was born in Slovakia to a Nigerian father do the Brits still consider him their own? Is Kevin Peterson the best English cricketer of all time? The mind boggles

    The hype was over the top. People comparing him to Mike Tyson ffs. I had a feeling this would happen when someone dared to punch him back.

    Should be fine. Ropes kept him up, so still a knockdown technically.

    It wasn't a question of Itauma having no stamina, certainly not long-term, it was his own inexperience together with incompetent cornerwork. He'd never been past six rounds before, Hrgovic was still standing at the end of the sixth and in no real trouble. The most inexperienced trainer in the world would have told Itauma to back off, jab, lean on Hrgovic, get his second wind. Ben Davidson couldn't even get that right. In fact, he couldn't even get throwing in the towel right.

    Abel Sanchez, Big Bear training camp, iron chin.. they knew what they were doing going in.

    Itauma very obviously has some amazing attributes. He lacks experience, and possibly intelligence in the ring. I thought he looked a bit anxious at times during the ringwalk. So his mental game apparently needs some work. Still young though, and too early to write him off.

    I said to my mrs it would either be Itauma early, or Hrgovic late. Great fight and pleased for Hrgovic.

    If the last Dubois fight is anything to go by, I can't see him talking so well by the time he hangs them up unfortunately. Can't believe we're doing that again, was legitimately worried about him last time. Was brutal.

    A TKO pays out anyway, at least here(Ireland). Does it not where you are?
