Moses Itauma coach Ben Davison is already looking past Dillian Whyte and targeting a battle for Itauma against the undisputed heavyweight champion Oleksandr Utekyk next.
Davison believes that 20-year-old Itauma (12-0, 10 COs) will be ready after adding the travel man’s ‘scalp’ to his collection in their headliner Dazn ppv This Saturday, August 16, in Riyadh.
Why whyte is a fake scalp
“It’s a wonderful scalp for him. It is a wonderful test for him, and we are confident he will be able to get through, ”said coach Ben Davison said Dazn boxAnd talk about Moses Itauma on Saturday in his fight against Dillian Whyte.
I would not characterize Whyte as a ‘big scalp’ for Moses Itauma now, because he has been knocked out by Tyson Fury and Alexnandr Povetkin. In addition, Dillian looked awful in his last battle against the 261-pound travelman Ebenezer Tetteeh Last December. The competition was a real battle for Whyte before finally coming to Tetten in the seventh round.
It would have been a ‘big scalp’ for Itauma if he fought Whyte in the first place of his career in 2018, when he was 26, but not now. Of course, if Dillian was still in his first place, Queensberry would not allow anyone near Itauma. He ruined things for them by looting the golden goose before lying the 24k eggs.
“He’s so strong. People underestimate. I know he’s a kid, but he’s not far from there, ‘Ben says about Itauma. ‘His ability to process is unmatched, which is rare for any weight, but at heavyweight it is exceptional. There is never a session where I say, “I want you to do it,” where he doesn’t try to do it. “
What is Ben talking about? No one underestimates the push of Itauma. What they notice is that he is linked to solely fades past their leading fighters and opposition to travelers.
Itauma’s record of outdated opponents
- Dillian Whyte: 37
- Mike Balogun: 41
- Mariusz Wach: 45
- Demsey McKean: 34
- And Garber: 40
- Istvan Bernath: 36
Ben Davison’s utility -pay day
“There’s no fight where I think,” I don’t like it, “Davison said when asked where he saw itauma going when he looked exceptional on Saturday and beat Whyte. “I just think it’s a win-win. You get the chance to fight the best of a generation, if not the best ever, in the welterweight class, “Ben said when asked if he would be open to Itauma following the Unified Heavyweight Champion Oleksandr Utesyk.
Well, Davison is obviously on board with Itauma rushed in his next game in a fight with USyk. He will get a massive payday before Oleksandr hung his gloves. Even if Itauma was beaten healthy, he would get a large amount of money, and would have the built -in excuse that he was just 20, fighting without experience and a generation.
There is no disadvantage for Itauma in a fight against USKyk. So it is not surprising that Ben is everything for the idea that Moses skips the stepfights needed to fight USyk, and just directly in the overs on a zinc-of-swim way.
“I truly think USKEK has never shared the ring with someone like Moses”Says Davison.
It is difficult to take Ben seriously with the remark, because he knows that utility sight has fought with a similar potential style that Moses Itauma uses. It is a simplistic style that Ulsyk has seen in the amateurs many times.
Itauma’s fighting style
- Upload on a left hand
- Withdrawing with a tread of three feet back
- Stop and throw
- Arrange
Why Itauma’s right -hand settle is established
Itauma does the same thing repeatedly. He only has a left hand in his arsenal. His right is like a establishmentSimilar to the arms of the extinct T. Rex Dinosaurus. Itauma never developed his right hand; Therefore, it is rarely used, and if so, it is to set up its primary weapon, left.
