      Usyk plans to retire at 41

      if Biblical Moses gets 3 or 4 good wins and becomes the top contender

      Usyk would be ducking Biblical Moses by retiring without having faced him

        Itauma one of the best I've seen in a long time. He's really really good and he's only 20. But they're going to have to fast track him if he wants to get to Usyk before he retires. He hasnt earned a Usyk fight yet but I think with some more experience against top contenders, he schools Usyk. Him vs Jared Anderson or Hrgovic would be perfect. Then Kabayel or Parker. If he beats them in convincing fashion, Usyk vs Ituama is a big fight and Usyk gets hands put on him.

          Imo , he should of already taken care of Anderson type fighters or Anderson himself
          That would of proven and showed that he is taking the much needed baby steps to reach his goal
          Then I believe he needs to fight a Hrgovic
          After winning that one , he takes on a top five guy like you said an Agit or Joseph and honestly I would say he needs to fight both of them to get a crack at the champ
          Ffs just need to look any further than Parker , who has fought practically everyone and still hasn’t got his shot yet
          Right now I view him as a British hype job , why you say because he wants to avoid fighters like Sanchez or even Zhang
          Is he telling us something , just maybe he knows he ain’t ready and please don’t tell me gained anything fighting the washed Whyte , besides money that is

            H ave 1 good win at least, so at least usyk can claim he best itauma, after itaum a came off a very good win.
            Kabayel, and Parker and a few others ahead of of itauma, so usyk can't be ducking just yet, usyk beaten enough brits.
            It's not a Nelo v benavides like situation yet

              For Usyk to say he will fight for four more years but exclude Itauma as an opponent for all those for years is a flat out, obscene, flagrant duck. Usyk is choreographing his career around Itauma. If Itauma is so raw and green why would Usyk blackball him?

              Why can't Usyk say: "Itauma is very good young prospect, if he keeps winning I will have to face him by end of 2026 or 2027."

              It's clear by Usyk's words he fears something about Itauma - I suspect it's the speed and power and pinpoint combinations, that of which he has never seen before in his life. Unbelievable that Itauma has beaten Usyk without needing to land a single punch.

                I think Itauma is ready now. Whyte was a legit top ten guy when Itauma thrashed him, which destroyed Whyte's value. People are discrediting the win now but Whyte wasn't exactly Ali's mummy vs Holmes. Itauma just made him look that bad. For Usyk to be blacklisting Itauma from being on his four year hit list is undeniably a duck in progress. It's shocking that the goat Usyk is mapping his career around a 20 year old unproven alleged hype job. I truly believe Usyk is threatened by Itauma. Greatness knows greatness.

                  I believe the shock and awe of Itauma KO 1 Whyte shook Usyk to his core. He does not want that Itauma smoke. He has seen his master and has gone soft. The alpha of the wolf pack always recognizes his successor and then quietly departs the pack and allows the takeover without a fight. Itauma has made Usyk find his inner coward. Usyk wants to finish his career beating up all the old guard who are all in decline -Parker, Zhang, Wilder, Kabayel, Chisora, Dubois. Usyk wants to handpick for four more years. Boycott Usyk until he faces Itauma.

                    Now run along, there's a good lad!
                    Lol, why won't you answer the question?

                    If Joseph Parker was British, would you say he was a fraud?


                    You have kids with your sister don't you? Properly inbred. The closer they live the more you love them lol

                      The more I read about this, the more it sounds like Usyk flat out doesn’t want to fight this guy.
                      Usyk says he’s gonna fight 3 more years but excluding just Ituama is strange. He’s excluding a potential top 3 guy. In a year or so, he maybe number one.
