Usyk vs Itauma is the superfight

[pollywog]

And he likes to tell that story of how long he was #1 but he always conveniently forgets to mention he got knocked cold by Povetkin in the middle of that stretch and had to retake the #1 spot in the rematch.

...against the corpse of Povetkin riddled with Covid.

Still hoping he sends Moses to the promised land on a stretcher though, just for schitzengiggles.

Ben Davidson is suffering from the same condition Don Charles had 'After Daniel Dubois beat the worst technical version of Anthony Joshua ever. It took 5 rounds for Dubois a known power puncher, to get a severely hurt and concussed Joshua out of the fight. And even still? It was Anthony Joshua's own unforced errors and technically mistakes which greatly lead to his loss vs Daniel Dubois. Great win for Dubois, but skill for skill? I think his performance was overrated. And the knockout in the 5th rounds, in my opinion got him out of being systematically beaten down by Joshua over the distance'.

Note: Davidson during a interview of late has stated 'He is not weary of putting Moses Ituama in with any of the World's top level heavyweight fighters. If that is the case? Then why is Moses Ituama not permitted or allowed to compete with Fabio Wardley and Anthony Joshua in training? And who are the supposed top level heavyweight fighters Moses Ituama has been dominating in sparring? Does anybody on here know? The reality is, Ituama was not an elite level amateur fighter and he has done nothing much at World level in the professional ranks as a fighter'.

I think the media machine backing Moses Ituama, are potentially going to get this guy smashed up 'Facing and beating a version of Dillian Whyte miles from his peak, is not a big deal. It is a solid fight for Moses Ituama, really good fight. But that is about it'.

Beating Dillian Whtye was not seen as a major challenge or deal for Anthony Joshua even after his traumatic loss to Daniel Dubois III 'So why all of a sudden, is this fight being herald as some sort of coronation? It is just a nonsensical narrative being pushed by certain folk within the boxing community and media'.

Oleksandr Uysk is most likely vacating his World title belts 'The man is an all-time great fighter. But seems to lack the ability to defend his titles, and take on all comers. The IBF did not strip him of his titles, Uysk voluntary gave them up. And all the signs are there that he may do potentially the same with his WBO titles again'.

To conclude: There are bigger and better fights out there for Oleksandr Uysk 'I would rate a trilogy fight against Tyson Fury, as a bigger fight than Moses Ituama. And if Anthony Joshua can gain back some momentum in his career, and achieve some genuine top level wins? The trilogy fight is also a mega fight'.

Other than that? A fight against Joseph Parker is a very meaningful and significant fight for this Heavyweight era 'Joseph Parker is nowhere near the level of Tyson Fury or Anthony Joshua as two of the three Heavyweight Mountains of this era. But once upon a time, he was an undefeated WBO World Heavyweight Champion' etc.

yeah dubois is lucky he iced AJ or else he would have been totally destroyed in the rest of the fight & thats the real reason why dubois is totally ducking an AJ rematch not the other way around, its just boxing101 really

comical stuff

Too much hype for Itauma. He beat a couple of bum slayers and is fighting an inactive named fighter. Strong left hand and fast feet, no head movement and comes in straight. Waiting to see how he does against someone that can actually jab.

Yes. Even if he beats Whyte easily, that won't tell much. Whyte is not even top 10 at this point.

[STREET CLEANER]

Yes. Even if he beats Whyte easily, that won't tell much. Whyte is not even top 10 at this point.

Don't get me wrong, I like a prospect and we need a new crop of HWs but it is still too early to tell. Whyte is a step in the right direction.
