Tremendous fight. Whyte did enough in there to earn a rematch, perhaps even a trilogy. Nash out - His Majesty

Dillian Whyte needs to join Wilder in that Ayahuasca retreat. Joshua might be joining them soon.

Let this “performance” be what Whyte is remembered for. And the 4x PED cheating. Couldn’t even land a punch and provide a yardstick. Kudos to Itauma. There were some on this site actually thinking fraud Whyte had a chance.

The problem is, Itauma is 20. Not a normal 20, but a focused, dedicated prodigy who is big, strong and very fast. When the body is 20, you can basically do whatever you want. The ligaments, the tendons are fresh and have lots and lots of spring. Dillian meant well but his joints aren't as limber, the body doesn't cooperate. Dillain, leave these young boys alone. Open a dispensary, a dealership, buy some real estate. Don't keep writing a check that your old ass body can't cash, unless you want your brains totally bashed in, complete with assorted dents in your skull like Deontay Marcellus Wilder. His brain is now the same texture as cream of wheat. Don't do this to yourself, Dillian. Don't be a porridge brain, like Deontay

I said dillian tendency to take too many punches would be his downfall. But is fragile and vulnerable too.

The footwork, hand speed, power in all of the not normal shots, and ring generalship is awesome!!!! We dont yet know what happens when he gets smashed with the perfect shot or when he gets in with a master like Usyk, but this kid has such an exciting mix of everything. I will pay for whatever scraps he has coming up!
I just don't think this was Whyte was getting old overnight. I think it was the perfect mix of spot on shots hitting him in the head and the face!!!!!!!

The Moses Itauma Era started tonight. That was an era starting performance. Like Lennox vs Razor in Oct 1992. Whyte was stunned by the first punches Itauma threw in the first round, that triple jab. He never recovered. Itauma couldn't miss, he has everything speed power accuracy fury. Whyte endured as much as he could and then the final right sent him down and across the ring. It was not a fight but a massacre. Itauma is ready for Usyk and he has what it takes to beat the goat. We will see if Usyk will take the most dangerous challenge of his career. Itauma is Prince Naseem, Mike Tyson, Joe Calzaghe, all in one. This 20 year old marvel can save the sport and take it to new heights, like Tyson, Pacquaio, Duran, Leonard and Ali did before. What Itauma did tonight is one of the most impressive breakouts I've ever seen by a young future champion. The sky is the limit for Moses Itauma.

Whyte looked awkward and clumbsy when he was warming up during the introductions by Buffer. He's shot and he knows it. Hence why he tried softening up Itauma with that lecture at the weigh in. Whyte knew he was doomed but part of that was knowing he was up against a young Tyson Duran Calzaghe Hamed all rolled in one. Usyk might decide to retire after this sensational performance.
