Very rare for somebody who carries that amount of power to be so rounded and fundamentally sound. No relying on one favourite combo to get the job done, Itauma has shown a great boxing brain already. Those skills are class.
What we see in under 2 rounds so far, there's natural fluidity. But hardly enough to gauge overall skillset for me. Think he desperately needs rounds. Hey, feed him Jarrell Miller . Massive load, durable with a little depth. Watching Miller pounded for a number of rounds before flopping over is just a bonus.
He still has a lot to prove but in the limited action we have seen him in, the skills he has he deploys with quite a rare fluidity for a big fella. Adversity will be his best friend if someone can give him rounds. Not just chin checking but stamina, plan B's and thinking on his feet when he is being shut out or countered.
