The Boxing thread

[bluesmith]

He's special, shot selection was fantastic at the end when his heart and most of his head must of wanted to just unleash, to compose and pick.the right shots, shows he destined for the top.

Would love to see Moses spark AJ but AJ isn’t that relevant anymore

 

[Kinkladze's crazy skills]

Truly special boxer stands out every time.

This might sound a bit mad but that performance on its own the speed the accuracy and movement, all of it should mean Moses Itauma is potentially in serious contention to be (probably won't be) Usyk's next opponent, he's as capable as absolutely anybody Usyk hasn't faced yet and this would sell very well.

I know he's young but Usyk should want to beat him too before he retires it makes perfect sense, at some point in the future this has to happen, this fight is as exciting a prospect as any other at heavyweight.

Maybe Itauma will be made to have another fight but he's certainly ready for a world title shot now ability wise, doesn't mean he can beat Usyk but he probably has as good a chance as anyone else, the only way to test this kids boxing ability is against the very best fighters.

I'd admittedly feel a bit sorry for Parker too if it happened ahead of him, as he undoubtedly deserves a title shot too and definitely ahead of Fury, but...

Nobody else in the heavyweight division would've done what Moses Itauma did to Dillian Whyte tonight, it might be a controversial take but get him in there with Usyk as soon as possible, even if he loses to Usyk it'll be no disgrace to his career long term and a great learning curve.

I’d love to see him spark out AJ

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Whyte is an absolute farce

 

[oldius]

Nobody was expecting that. Utterly flawless from a tremendously gifted young fighter.

Any coverage on this fight as in a highlights ..

 

[Heisenberg's Blue Sky]

Unbelievable. I had Moses for a round 4 knockout but R1 1:48. Kid could be The Chosen one. Parker or Kaba next?

Now we know why Whyte was late into the ring..... he was shitting himself

 

[leighton]

Put him in with either Dubois or Lawrence Okolie or Fabio Wardley he goes in with Usyk he be beaten. Also I think Joe Parker would be a good fight too but hopefully he gets Usyk.

Another decent card in Alty tonight, and Rafferty is getting wed in 10 days too so he could look a sight on the day if he doesn't negate Chamberlains jab

Miller v Woodstock Jr has been a fantastic bout so far. None stop tear up.

I predict he will be the new face of boxing when Usyk retires.

Miller's pushing is really spoiling his great work elsewhere

Seems to be his game plan as every round he’s been at it. Looked to be throwing his head in often too.

Yeah, I don't recall Turbo being dirty like that though so it probably isn't coached, he is just a dirty fighter

Rafferty v Chamberlain. Another barnstormer. Wouldn’t mind seeing that one again.

Domestic fight of the year, two warriors

Big fan of Jack but i thought he was exposed a little tonight. A smooth operator like Chambo found him so easy to hit, i can see better natural 140 pounders doing him some real damage

I agree. Jack is very tough and can bang but his lack of head movement will see him exposed sooner or later. I actually thought Chamberlain did enough to win it. His work rate was excellent. Every time he got caught he had a reply.
