      He wanted the Hrgovic fight but Hrgovic signed to fight Dave Allen, a journeyman.
      Itauma would be much too fast for the plodding Hrgovic ,imo.

      Kabayel the mandatory challenger for Usyk , won't jeopardise his title shot by fighting Itauma,and who can blame him?

        Hrgovic fighting Allen is Warren`s nonsense. Hrgovic demanded Wardley or Kabayel.

        Itauma is the guy under Warren protection , warren made Hrgovic to fight Allen, so he can`t fight Itauma.

          whatever the politics of Boxing i was just watching Itwo and he was sharp against Franklin and he is 21 with time and a lot of experinece needed as he steps forward but those punch's were real and real solid, nice little four rounds .................Nothing but opportunity as he fights forward.

            SOON at 22

            Biblical Moses went pro at 18

            Floyd went pro at 19 and became champ at 21

            A couple more fights for Biblical Moses since Floyd had an extensive amateur career along with his boxing family

              I think Usyk might be up for fighting Moses this summer. Firstly, he is a brave man & a warrior. Secondly, if Usyk can ever beat Moses, now is the time. Moses is only getting better, stronger & more comfortable & Olexander is only getting slower & closer to the exit. From Usyk's viewpoint, perplexing talented young fighters is what master boxers do. Its what Floyd did to Canelo, what B-hop did to Pavlik, what Pernell did to Oscar (only to be robbed) & even what Holmes did to Mercer. If it is going to happen it has to be this summer.

                Oleksandr is fighting in late May

                this summer is too quick a turnaround he often does only one a year

                  He's cleaned out some old farts and talentless journeymen while facing no young lions or legit contenders...

                  He's not worthy of a shot at Usyk. I bet Kabayel and Parker would love to test him.
