Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte: All you need to know about heavyweight fight

Published 20 hours ago1 minute read

Unbeaten heavyweight, Moses Itauma will fight fellow Briton Dillian Whyte in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on 16 August.

The fight marks a major step up for Itauma, and Whyte, a former world-title challenger and seasoned contender.

Itauma is seen as one of British boxing’s top prospects.

The 20-year-old has stopped ten of his twelve opponents since turning professional.

Whyte, on the other hand, is a former world title challenger who’s boxed some of the best in the division.

The 37-year-old lost a WBC world title fight to Tyson Fury at Wembley stadium.

He had a thrilling grudge match with Anthony Joshua for the British title a decade ago.

Whyte has also had exciting bouts with Parker, now the WBO Interim titlist, and Chisora.

He, however, failed a drug test ahead of a scheduled rematch with Joshua but was cleared to return to action in Gibraltar last December.
