Going to need to see his chin tested eventually but Itauma looks like the goods. Doesn't even rush when he gets dudes hurt either, just systematically breaks em down
THat's true, doesn't fight with any emotional tendencies, attacks, retreats, finds openings again, pulls guard down etc. Very methodical.

the whyte win tells me put him in the ring with a top 5 heavyweight next...if they force an usyk fight without at least that, you run the risk of ruining him..usyk isnt somebody you just get in the ring with..usyk's first and second gear are elite..besides id rather see parker get his undisputed shot first..he earned that

Agree. Tbh they might even be better to stall Usyk out and just build for two or three more fights, then take whatever belts are up for granted when he relinquishes.

He has a huge career in front of him, why wreck it with the first shot? Tsyzu got built up fighting bums and shot fighters, then when he got his chance he rushed it terribly, sort of wasted his career in that sense.

Him vs Dubios is ideal or zhang/big baby as one final test
