Heavyweight Showdown: Carl Froch Predicts Moses Itauma to Defeat Dillian Whyte
The boxing world is abuzz with anticipation as Moses Itauma and Dillian Whyte prepare to face off in a highly anticipated heavyweight fight on August 16 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The upcoming bout marks a significant step up for 20-year-old Itauma, as he takes on 37-year-old Whyte, a former world-title challenger. Former British boxer Carl Froch has weighed in on the fight, predicting a decisive victory for Itauma that could spell the end of Whyte’s career.
Froch, speaking on his show Froch On Fighting, expressed his belief that Whyte is past his prime and that Itauma is poised to outclass him. "Whyte I think is about finished," Froch said, "and he is up to fight Moses Itauma as well. I think Itauma is going to absolutely outclass him and probably flatten Whyte, and that will be the end of him." Froch’s prediction is not only a testament to Itauma’s rising star but also a damning assessment of Whyte’s current form.
The prospect of a potential showdown between Itauma and another British boxing giant, Anthony Joshua, is also on Froch’s mind. However, he dismisses the idea, saying, "I would not put Anthony Joshua to fight with Itauma… Because for me, that would be another beatdown." This endorsement of Itauma’s abilities is significant, coming from a seasoned boxer like Froch.
Froch is not alone in his prediction, as British boxer Dave Allen has also tipped Itauma to overcome Whyte. As the boxing community waits with bated breath for the fight, one thing is clear: Moses Itauma is a force to be reckoned with, and his upcoming bout against Dillian Whyte could be the defining moment in his young career. With the stage set for an epic showdown in Riyadh, fans around the world will be watching to see if Itauma can deliver on the promise of his formidable talent and emerge victorious against his more experienced opponent.
