I think this fight could be the perfect opportunity for Moses to prove himself. Dillian brings experience and grit, but Moses has the skills and mindset to rise to the occasion. get smm services

I think white takes too many hits to expect too much success in this fight

It is a solid fight, but? One that Moses Ituama is not an underdog in 'I would not rate this fight, nowhere the level of risk and jeopardy. As Anthony Joshua in his 19th professional fight, competing against Wladimir Kiltschko at Wembley Stadium in front of 90'000 + boxing fans, and millions of boxing fans around the world'.

Note: And also let's factor in that Anthony Joshua in his 15th professional fight 'fought Dillian Whyte at his absolute peak. A version of Whyte who could actually move inside a boxing ring, had flexibility and athleticism. Since that fight? Whyte's level of athleticism has markedly decreased. And a contributing factor which has influenced this, is in my opinion? His over reliance on modern day training practices such as the use of body building techniques. Or badly tailored strength routines. with a whole host of useless exercises that will not translate into an improved fighters performance and fight night'.

Dillian Whyte may have marginally improved his brute strength over the years 'But from my observation every other attribute of his game has gone completely backwards. This is not the first time, I have made this observation. I was stating this viewpoint many years ago'.

If Moses Ituama is as good as the media machine behind him 'Thinks and is trying to claim. Then he really should decimate Dillian Whyte inside a few rounds. Especially this version of Dillian Whyte'.

Whyte is not really a learning fight 'Skill for skill let's? Not try and make Whyte out to be, some sort of fighter with extreme guile. I personally don't think he has ever been that type of fighter. Dillian Whyte is an aggressive, determined and competitive fighter. Who has a solid level of power with his best technical punch, which is most likely his left hook'.

And outside the ring? Dillian Whyte is probably still one of the most dangerous heavyweight fighters 'That is why personally I still give him a chance in this fight. I don't think he is going to be as apprehensive of Moses Ituama like all of his other opponents'.

To conclude: It is a solid fight, but the level of challenge is being over exaggerated by the media machine behind Moses Ituama 'Masses of people were all complaining and criticising Anthony Joshua and his team for making the Whyte vs Joshua III trilogy fight'.

For me personally if Moses Ituama wins, it is no big deal. And if Dillian Whyte wins, it is still not a big deal etc.

Hope Moses has been working on his uppercuts.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Is is a huge step up. And Whyte is not even top 10 any more. So, people shouldn't be hyped for Itauma fighting Usyk. It is like going to the open ocean from a little swimming pool.

[Liondw]

Perhaps it's the other way around, Itauma is a step up for Whyte.

[pollywog]

Given the stellar work Ben Dover Son, put in with Fury and AJ, I'm picking Itauma's identity will be hyped up wannabe giving reach arounds for camel jockeys.

I personally think Itauma gets him out of there in the first 4 rounds.. I think whyte is pretty much done at this point and I just don’t think he has the heart for it like he did but the guys made a load of money probably a load more for this fight at the weekend and he’s defiantly had a good career but one guy is one the rise and other is heading down

[shenmue]

I just hope whyte tries to win, his effort and performance in his last big fight 3 years ago against tyson fury was disgraceful.

They are expecting a very easy night and will probably get it, hopefully Whyte does better than expected though.
