Can never be mentioned enough. Boxing's answer to Peter Drury.

Nice to see Franklin in good shape.....

 

[Charlestonian]

Itauma showing the problem with the lack of depth at HW here, not sure what hes learning from this.

 

[NE32]

Impressive 1st round.

Who would you put him in with?
Only had a handful of fights and against someone who hasn't been stopped??

He is ready for the winner of Wardley Dubois for me, he’d give Usyk a sterner test than any HW has so far

Will be interesting if this goes another 3 or so. Does he have the stamina?

This is the trouble, hes on the way up so fast hes very, very hard to match up. Hes ranked in the top 10 mostly and he’s got very limited experience.

I’d say you’d want him in with a Joe Joyce or someone of that ilk before he went near a world title.

He is blowing between rounds.
Will stop him soon you would think but love to see him dragged into late rounds.

Franklin's a much better opponent at this stage of Itauma's development than the current version of Joyce. Assuming he gets through this with no issues then hopefully they put him in with someone who could pose his chin some questions next.

There maybe a lack of depth but it’s ludicrous you’re suggesting this was/is easy for him

 

[Captain Slackbladder]

Fair play to Franklin..... could be oh so easy to take the coin and get out of there.

 

[oROSSo]

Really impressed by both of them. Nice to see a bit speed in the heavyweight division once again.

I’m not sure what they do, maybe Hrgovic? Hes such a weird fighter for a HW in terms of speed etc it’s tough to know how fast to push I guess.

10 rounds here wouldnt do him any harm.

EDIT - Never mind!

Heavy weight boxing.

Joyce is a spent force imho and Franklin offers a better fight
