Anyone changing their mind? :lol:

Weight and physique mean nothing.

Haye looked good against Bellew on the scales.. but his body broke down.

I do believe that Whyte will go for it

Is Itauma 235 or 245? The photo you posted further up says 245 but the post I’ve quoted here says 235.

I have absolutely no idea. It’s a shambles. Anyone watch the weigh in?

What was announced?

Buffer needs to retire.

Calling Moses a champion like he’s a world champion.

At least he didn’t go one better than the other guy and call Dillian Whyte the ‘Baby killer.’

Read a couple of reports on the weigh in.. apparently Whyte is ripped, er no. Lighter yes, ripped is a stretch...

I'm very excited about Itauma.. skills wise he looks brilliant. My only concern is the mental side. If he's mentally ready, I can see him blasting out Whyte with an uppercut or hook.

Lost a lot from his face. One could guess he has had help from a weight loss jab.
Be par for a drug cheat like him to cheat.

I think he's buying into all the hype.

Whyte looks in good shape.

I still think whytes career has been one of the most flattering ever and that he really was always a levle bellow what he achieved.

I also think at 37 after failed drugs tests and ko losses he is likely 6 ish years past his best.

Hope he has enough left to give Moses a decent little test because a Moses round 1 ko won’t tell us anything and we will just say whytes a shadow of himself…

As a plodding, poorly balanced athlete I’m not sure what losing significant weight will achieve. I doubt it will make him much quicker at his age.
His previous condition wasn’t great and maybe his stamina and general work rate could improve…
There’s lots of boxers lost weight and it didn’t deliver any improvement. Ali was an obvious one, Joe Joyce etc
It’s an interesting fight purely because Itauma hasn’t really fought at even fringe World Title level yet….

When the fight was first announced, I immediately thought Itauma inside two rounds.
Then I watched Whyte vs Tetteh, saw the open workouts, watched Itauma's greatest hits, saw Whyte's weight loss and ozempic face.
And haven't changed my mind at all :lol:
Itauma inside two.
Whyte loses and he becomes Danny Williams in the new British scene Merry Go Around with Skelton (Joyce), Sprott (Abel eye)and Dave Allen.

Shame we don't have a tv contract for the British Heavyweight Fight League.

So I’m guessing the main four fight card starts around 7 with maybe Raymond Ford? Anyone know the running order?

I'm more concerned that he's with Ben Davison. Davison fighters are always so poor defensively.

How do you rate as Ben in the corner between rounds?

The speed of hand and foot from Itauma, coupled with the apparent vulnerability of Whyte, seem to make this a very forgone conclusion for most, myself included.

But if Dillian ends up being a crafty old nightmare for Itauma and takes him into deep waters, it’ll seem so foreseeable in hindsight. Lots still to prove for Moses.
Yeah and who really knows? Whyte could be supersonic for one more night, juiced up
having taken the perfectly timed dose out in Portugal, God help us all.

I think Whyte is getting done in 2 rounds, possibly round 1.
