Why does Moses Itauma target fights with old men?

If Fwank is delaying Itauma fighting to pursue a fight with a 10 years past it Pulev for a poundland meaningless belt then I'm sorry but that's just pathetic.

 

Because he’s a young guy who's still in the building phase of his career.

 

Aka - they’re doing exactly what they should be. Gaining experience while managing risk.

Many here saw Whyte as a risky fight, btw…

 

not doing much building if he's fighting less than 3 rounds in a year.

 

Some of Wilder's fights were outright fixed. Most agree on Scott, who, tellingly, later became his trainer. I am positive Audley was fixed and have my doubts about Lyakovich with the theatrical twitching.

He had title fights against Eric Molina, and guys that they knew were medically unfit. That's how Fury got a shot...they figured well, if he can't beat a mentally ill drug addict and PEDs cheat coming down from 400 pounds...

His 25th fight was against a fat middleweight.

And on and on.

Biggest fraud since Primo Carnera.

 

Looks like Wilder hit him with a very good right hand there.

That's a 42 year old Audley Harrison, a boxer who had a glass chin in his prime.

 

1) And then missed spectacularly and comically with every other punch, the ref stopping it while Wilder was swinging at air.

2) Did you catch Audley scream beforehand...as if he were surprised at what was happening? Maybe because it wasn't part of a pre-arranged plan they had?

One of the strangest things I have ever seen.

 

I'm not saying you're wrong. But i find it a little difficult to believe they'd bother fixing a 42 year old Harrison.
Then again, I remember Harrison had a few 'fishy' ones, some wins, some losses, like against Haye.

 

All I can say is, watch the fight again with what I have said in mind. That is not a legitimate fight and no one will convince me it was.

 

Sanchez could beat him tbh. If he dominates Sanchez like his recent opponents I’d give him props but something tells me it would be a close fight.

 

Your right, that actually makes him a fraud - or at least his management. And I concur with all you said.
I was mostly thinking about his opponents for the short span from stiverne 1 to fury 3. I was mostly rooting against him back then, far from being a fan, but I find that to be a legit run (though he was overhyped and it annoyed me to no end) and he gave the boxing world more excitement than most other heavies at that time. So for that run, I find 'fraud' too harsh a judgement. For his career before and after i have no problem with that term.
