Itauma blasting through Whyte,<\/a> Fury said that the up and comer beats Usyk comfortably.<\/p>\n\u201cI keep getting asked about young Moses Itauma fighting Oleksandr Usyk and fighting all the other big names.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy opinion is not someone who doesn\u2019t know boxing. My opinion is someone who has been there and won every single belt. Won everything there is to win in boxing and done very well. Boxing is a young man\u2019s game, like I told Wladimir Klitschko when he was 37. Boxing is a young man\u2019s game. It waits for nobody.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo here is the opinion, and you heard it here first: Moses Itauma will wreck all them all old men out of the division. Usyk, AJ, Miller. Whoever there is that\u2019s old. Zhang, whoever else the f\u2014k there is. Luis Ortiz. All these big names of the past.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cEven the man who took my belts. Usyk, Moses will wreck him because it\u2019s a young man versus an old man. And an old man can\u2019t mess with a young man.\u201d<\/p>\n
The match-up has the backing of Riyadh Season\u2019s Turki Alalshikh, though Itauma himself admitted that there are contenders currently more deserving \u2013 namely interim champions Joseph Parker and Agit Kabayel.<\/p>\n
Usyk has recently requested a delay on negotiations with Parker due to injury,<\/a> meaning he may be looking to take that the fight or, more likely, he is buying time to make a decision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Moses Itauma stopped Dillian Whyte in one round this weekend in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, passing what was said…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":73761,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-73760","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\/73760","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=73760"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73760\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/73761"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73760"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73760"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73760"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
