“What do you win?”: The nucleus of Eddie Hearn’s argument against Anthony Joshua vs. Ituma

Promoter Eddie Hearn claims that he sees it as Zero gain For Anthony Joshua in the fight against Moses Ituma, 20. Feel it is a situation of loss, anyway. Ituma (13-0, 11 kos) is too young and has experience for the former champion of two divisions of two divisions Joshua (28-4, 25 kos) to receive any credit to overcome it.

A proposal without capture

On the other hand, if Joshua, 35, is beaten by Ituma, it would mean that his career has been “finished” because he has lost by a boy who has not beaten anyone during his two -year career or his entire amateur career.

Ituma is running on the summit without fighting any of the good contestants. Fans are making a big problem about their recent victory in the first round about the missing British traveler Dillian Whyte, but did not face a heavy heavyweight.

Ituma could lose one or more of these fighters, and the drum would end up abruptly over him the next king of the division. At least, these heavy weights would age ituma, take him down and leave him a less capable fighter than the one who shot the assembly line in 2023.

Weighs the gain

“I don’t really look at Moses’s struggle and I think it’s a struggle for AJ,” said promoter Eddie Hearn Sky Sports on a struggle between Anthony Joshua and Moses Ituma. “There are many reasons why. One, what do you earn?,

Joshua does not go ahead of Ituma because he has so much experience. Moses has struggled essentially 13 tomato cans as a professional, and there is a lot of artificial hype created on these wins. Fans do not even expect to see -with a heavy weight really before the nails like the new king of the division.

There will be many agriculture fans if Ituma is exposed when it comes in for the first time with a good fighter. Will teach fans a lesson to not buy -s in a false bombo and be cheated Gold of To Fool.

The defects of ituma

Ituma does not have the amateur background for people to have an accurate indicator of whether it is good or not. He did not fight the cream of Ukraine’s harvest, Russia, Kazakhstan, Cuba and the United States when he was amateur. The only decent fighter he fought, Stylian rulians From Greece, he had him in the race all night, acting as if he was persecuted by a dog angry in Brossa in his struggle on November 23, 2022.

Rulies showed how to give problems to attacking ituma -non -stop, landing hard, significant blows and making it feel the pain. What this struggle showed is that Ituma does not like it to hit and do anything to avoid leather tasting.

The zero sum game

“Moses is a very good fighter. If you win, you have hit a 20 -year -old. If you lose, you have lost with a 20 -year -old Your career is over. It is a dangerous struggle. I value Moses a lot, “said Hearn.

Joshua’s career would be considered as “above” if he had to be exploited by the inexperienced Itumea. Losing in front of Daniel Dubois for a fifth round last September is a signal to the fans that AJ’s career is. But if ituma did something similar or worse, it would destroy Joshua’s credibility and marketing with fans.

Joshua’s popularity is still tall and can make great money in fights against Jake Paul and Tyson Fury. If this is its angle, the purses who would be able to fight against Paul and Fury would be extraordinary. Ituma struggles, money would not be the same because it has not been enough time to build a fans base around the world.

Fighting in the trenches

“I think Moses has a lot of work to do. It is an extraordinary talent, but we have no idea if it can mark the boxes that are needed to be a real big and a real champion in the division,” said Hearn. “How is your chin? How is it when it is very hard in the trenches?” Hearn said.

Eddie brings some good points. We do not know the performance of ituma against quality heavy weights that are throwing it, forcing it to a creepy struggle and applying pressure. Dillian Whyte, 37, seemed to be landed, without a significant punching in his defense before being eliminated in a round by Ituma in his headline on August 16, 2025.

Apart from whyte, Itauma has not fought anyone notable. Although Moses is now number 1 for WBA and WBO, its opposition has been of marginal quality during its 13 -fights.
