Derek Chisora<\/a> has fought Oleksandr Usyk<\/a> and revealed what he thinks will happen if the Ukrainian were to face young Moses Itauma<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Itauma is just 20-years-old but is a hotly tipped heavyweight who has won 11 of his 13 fights by knockout, including a fine stoppage of Dillian Whyte inside the first two minutes last time out.<\/p>\n

Usyk is, of course, boxing\u2019s first-ever two-time undisputed champion in the four-belt era and has beaten Chisora, Anthony Joshua, Daniel Dubois and Tyson Fury.<\/p>\n

Speaking to The Sun Sport,<\/a> \u2018Del Boy\u2019 suggested Itauma should not step in with Usyk, even though not everyone agrees.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cYou know what, he shouldn\u2019t take the fight with Usyk. Don\u2019t believe the hype of if you win it you\u2019ll be amazing, no, we\u2019re building something great here, so if we\u2019re building something great we should not try to cash cow and say we want him to do this now.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet him learn the game and do it the right way so we can focus on him winning everything the right way in his time, We don\u2019t want to rush him and say OK, you\u2019ve knocked out 35 fighters who can\u2019t fight. No.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe greatest athlete of our generation, the GOAT, Oleksandr Usyk will blow him away, I love Moses but I don\u2019t think he will beat Usyk, no, never.\u201d<\/p>\n

Itauma is struggling to lock in his next fight, which is scheduled for December 13 in Manchester. The likes of Dubois and Filip Hrgovic have both reportedly said no for different reasons, and now Chisora has also rejected the idea.<\/p>\n

Most recently it was reported that Michael Hunter or David Adeleye are currently the front-runners for his return later in the year.<\/a><\/p>\n

As for Chisora, he\u2019s set to return on the same bill as Itauma, looking to continue his good run of form after recent wins over Otto Wallin, Joe Joyce and Gerald Washington.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Derek Chisora has fought Oleksandr Usyk and revealed what he thinks will happen if the Ukrainian were to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":190180,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-190179","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-boxing","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/190179","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=190179"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/190179\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/190180"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=190179"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=190179"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=190179"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
