Moses Itauma Seeks Heavyweight Title Shot After Whyte Fight

Moses Itauma, a 20-year-old British heavyweight boxer, is poised for a significant career breakthrough as he prepares to face Dillian Whyte in a major fight in Riyadh. Itauma is regarded as a rising star with the potential to become one of the youngest heavyweight champions, possibly surpassing legends like Muhammad Ali and George Foreman, although he will not beat Mike Tyson's youngest champion record. His victory over Whyte could set up a world title shot against Joseph Parker, contingent on Oleksandr Usyk vacating the WBO belt. Itauma's rapid improvement and ferocious style have earned high praise from fellow boxer Frazer Clarke, who considers him the next big name in British heavyweight boxing. Despite respecting Usyk as a modern-day great, Itauma is confident in his own potential to become an undisputed world champion and does not admire other fighters to avoid distractions. The upcoming fight against Whyte, a seasoned veteran, is seen as a critical test that could launch Itauma’s path to heavyweight supremacy.
