Itauma owned the faster hands and greater early explosion, but Hrgovic took away his punching room through collar ties, short right hands, and physical work inside. Those tactics forced the younger fighter to wrestle for space while already burning energy. Itauma’s previous early knockouts had never required him to solve that type of problem under fatigue. Hearn’s use of the Dubois loss as proof of Hrgovic’s limitations is also unconvincing. Severe cuts ended their competitive 2024 fight after eight rounds, although Dubois had hurt Hrgovic late in the seventh. Dubois later knocked out Joshua, validating his place among the division’s…

(Queensberry Promotions) Five days on from one of the upsets of the year – Filip Hrgovic halting an exhausted Moses Itauma in the ninth round – the conclusions as to what went wrong continue to grow in volume. Boxing, it’s often rightly said, is one of the most unforgiving of sports. When it goes wrong for a boxer, particularly a hyped unbeaten boxer, there is no hiding place. No teammates to share the blame, no fixture list that reveals the next game, not even a shirt to dry their eyes or hide their face. They are stripped all but bare…

Morning all. Now, it’s all about the football. Which is good. I said what I had to say about the window in yesterday’s blog, I stand by my opinion, but there’s nothing we can do now except go out there and win games with the very good squad we have. I do hope every slight under-performance doesn’t become a referendum on what we did and didn’t do this summer, but then the best way to avoid that is to play well, score lots of goals, and win lots of games. It should be interesting to hear what Mikel Arteta says…

He sees himself as a full-time keeper, and that means he has to be on the field for the full 20 overs. So, he won’t play as an…
“They agreed on everything. They agreed on the money. Everything was good to go. They both wanted to do the fight. The weight remains the holdup, and it’s a big holdup. Shakur Stevenson wants 144. Devin Haney wants 147,” said Coppinger to Inside Ring Show. This is not a new round of talks. Haney and Stevenson publicly discussed 144 pounds in June, with Haney asking if accepting that weight would secure the fight. Stevenson answered yes, but their social-media exchange never became a signed contract. The process became tangled in Haney’s WBO obligations involving Keyshawn Davis and competing claims over…
