Comments Thread For: Oleksandr Usyk next for Moses Itauma? All in due time

[Smash]

the whole thing is ridiculous no way does usyk deserve the itauma fight, he needs to get in line with the new star of the sport

Usyk is hiding.

Then he needs to drop down the rankings

Personally I dont think Itauma has had that test he needs yet but.....maybe now is the right time to face Usyk when he's fearless. Sometimes there is too much caution and overthinking. Just throw him in

Nope...definitely not the right time. Sometimes there is too much hype and underthinking.
Just hold tight and crush a few dossers in between. Start with Joshua and Dubois.

Itauma got me thinking of Gerry Cooney 3 fight arc that really thrust him to fame - blowing out Jimmy Young, Ron Lyle, Kenny Norton in succession. All 3 were a few years past prime a la Whyte. Of course all 3 were far better than Whyte in their primes. Want to see 2 more somewhat formidable wins for the young man

That is a great analogy.

Let's go, Champ.!!!

Hrgovic seems the move. Rugged and will put Moses under some pressure and throws volume. He will take some punchea although you can imagine Moses lighting him up.

Usyk is never fighting him and Moses understands that Parker and Kabayel are more deserving. Classy comment in the ring I felt.

But a lot of these names thrown around as opponents it's easy to imagine that they are just too slow and are gonna get clipped and chinned.

Moses vs any version of Martin Bakole is like a boxing snuff film. Joe Joyce..would be a crime to make. Chisora would be similar.

A lot of the tradional step ups won't do.

Wow itauma is a lightning fast super heavy weight,

[hugh grant]

This win flatters itauma more than it should do. Thing is itauma knew white can be hurt if pressured, we've all seen it before, so in a sense white couldn't fool itauma
