Filip Hrgovic believes Moses Itauma could avoid another defeat in his career if he is able to overcome the humiliation of losing an IBF heavyweight title contest in August.
Hrgovic, who stunned Itauma in that bout, said the British fighter’s future could be very different if he succeeds in putting the setback behind him. His assessment suggests he views the defeat as a potentially defining experience rather than evidence that Itauma’s prospects have diminished.
The loss was described by Hrgovic as a humiliation for Itauma, who must now deal with the consequences of being beaten in the title contest. Hrgovic’s comments focus on the psychological impact of the result and on whether Itauma can regain his confidence.
Despite the defeat, Hrgovic believes Itauma has the potential to respond strongly. He said the Briton may never lose again once he has moved on from the experience, although no further details about Itauma’s next fight or plans were provided.
For now, the main question is how Itauma reacts to the August loss. Hrgovic’s view is that overcoming the disappointment could mark the start of a sustained unbeaten run.
