Comments Thread For: Moses Itauma next fight: The five best options

[M312]

YEP!!!...people forgot how prime AJ was knocking out everyone until he couldn't put a dent in Parker over 12 rounds and needed the refs help to get an advantage.

And that was noob Parker. Prime Parker is now and no one wants that smoke, not even Itauma. Meanwhile, Usyk is dragging his feet and Turki is looking to age out or ring rust Parker into irrelevance.

AJ faced a Prime Parker. When he had a chin and was actually a World Champion.

Now he's just a runner with no chin. Itauma in 2. Kabayel in 5.

Still likely loses to old Joyce Joyce.

When was I wrong?

You're the one needing tissues when you were first thinking about Parker at night and secondly when JOE JOYCE left him in a heap on the floor after an absolute BATTERING.

Itauma is 10x the fighter Chisora and Joyce were.

LOL...Itauma ain't been through 1 tenth of what those 2 have been through. If he has the heart of War Chisora and the chin of prime Juggernaut I'll give the young pup his flowers.

At the mo, he could do with having his face rubbed in his own pee. Usyk and Parker would be pleased to oblige, if the price is right.

I will actually agree with you that he hasn't shown the heart of Chisora yet.

But in terms of raw skills, nobody can doubt how much better Itauma is.

Please make the Parker fight. It would be easy work. Parker just isn't at the level.

Looking at available names and guys who are willing, I'd like to throw out Nelson Hysa as a decent opponent.

He is with Warren- older fighter but still undefeated, ranked top 10 in a couple places and recently called out Ituama so he is willing to make the fight.

i don't know all that much about him, but from what I've seen, I like his mix of size/style and mentality.

I like the mix mentioned above - Wardley, Huni, ituama. Maybe Hysa can mix into that

Ituama-Huni
Wardley-Hysa

Ituama-Hysa
Wadley-Huni 2

tyson fury thinks moses would wreak usyk but then again he hates usyk lol for making him even more mentally deranged than he already is

with all the people bigging up this moses guy like hes thor himself maybe turki is right to favour this matchup, imagine if moses actually did take him out, that would be something, its boxing i dont think he would but since its heavy boxing u could never be 100% sure in this case i dont think

I don't want to see a punching bag with a chin to provide more rounds for Itauma. How about someone who can fight back as well, or someone with at least one good attribute other than just being able to absorb punches?

My preferred (potential) opponents

1. Andy Ruiz Jr - If he's still training and not just given up. He can take punches, has a fighting spirit, and has fast hands that can test Moses.
2. Joseph Parker - possibly for a vacant title because I don't see the fight happening otherwise
3. Frank Sanchez - Crafty boxer

Why I think the following fights may not be interesting (even as some fans have suggested), but possibly the likely next fight

1. Filip Hrgovic - Durable fighter, but very slow and prone to cuts. Not very skilled, just raw brawling
2. Jermaine Franklin - Only a part-time boxer. He lost to Dillian, who got destroyed in the first round by Itauma.
3. Jared Anderson - Just a hype job, not really into boxing, nor very skilled either.
4. Ife Ajagba - Slow and gets hit very easily

Interesting fights, but unlikely to happen

1. Anthony Joshua - Would avoid Moses Itauma like the plague.
2. Dereck Chisora - is on record advising Whyte not to take this fight. Will avoid this fight.
3. Agit Kabayel - WBC interim, and won't like to risk his chance against Usyk or the title (once Usyk retires)
4. Daniel Dubois - Looking for a comeback fight, not a challenge. Won't risk his WBC #2 spot, which Frank will use to give him another title shot soon.
5. Fabio Wardley - WBA interim, wouldn't like to give up his position and wait for a title shot
6. Michael Hunter - WBA #1, looking for the WBA regular title, and also tied to Don King.

13 fights in and having faced nobody is the level huh ???....pfffft GTFOH!!!

Chisora isn't the level of Itauma in terms of skills. Unless you disagree? Chisora himself doesn't.

How do you see an Itauma/Parker fight going?

Seeing that Parker lost to Del Boy and was easily stopped by slow robot Joyce, had huge trouble with southpaw Zhang - you don't agree it's a walk in the park for Moses?

Wake up dude. Doesn't matter where you're born, have some sense.
