Filip Hrgovic reacts to his fight with Moses Itauma, praising Itauma’s performance after a shock stoppage in the ninth round. Hrgovic says Itauma is “amazing,” highlighting the impact and effectiveness that led to the stoppage.
At the same time, Hrgovic criticizes Itauma’s approach, saying he boxed “like an amateur.” The outlets both report the same comments, framing Hrgovic’s view as a mix of recognition for Itauma’s ability and assessment that his execution and tactics fell short of professional standards.
The reports do not add further context such as fight location, officials’ decisions beyond the ninth-round stoppage, or detailed breakdowns of the rounds. Overall, the focus is on Hrgovic’s post-fight assessment: strong credit for Itauma’s output that produced the stoppage, paired with his critique of boxing style and polish.
