    It's signed apparently.

    A 19 year old vs a 44 year old.

    Do you see any possible problems for the kid?

    Wach will give him about as much trouble as an Easter Island statue - tough to topple but that's about it. The last time I recall Wach troubling anyone was when he landed one right hand on Klitschko about 12 years ago

    He almost knocked out Artur Szpilka at around 40. Szpilka is no can, and was dancing in there.

    :lol: You dumbass. You checked out his amateur record on Boxrec and thought it was his pro record.

    Wach shouldn't even be fighting anymore. Wtf. I'd love for him to pull a rabbit out a hat here but more likely he gets stretchered out.

    Itauma is just 19, give him a break. At least they are keeping him active.
    And as a plus, they are now stepping him up in competition. Mezencev was a step above everyone else Itauma had fought up to that point. And Wach is someone who will finally force Itauma to go a few rounds. The fastest anyone has ever stopped Wach was in 6. Itauma has seen the second round just once.

    Step up from his last opponents, but still should win comfortably if he’s as good as he looks.

    I agree that he should stop. The way he sounds being interviewed these days is a bit concerning. You can have a granite chin, but not a granite brain.

    Don´t go running your mouth if you don´t even know what you are talking about. At least give Itauma the courtesy of reading through his actual resume and watching a fight or two.

    There's no way Wach should be fighting anymore.

    He was slow and stationary twelve years ago.

    The guy's defence is his head. As impressive as his ability to absorb punches has been, that's eventually going to catch up with you.

    At 44 this version of Wach should provide no threat at all. He's just been brought in to take Itauma some rounds, which Itauma desperately needs as all his fights in the last year have been done in under 2 rounds.

    44yo Wach still a big step up and he's only 19 which could be just as detrimental as being 40, lack of maturity and "man strength", experience etc, it's not a total one sided fight even age wise
