    Dillian Whyte vs Moses Itauma in Riyadh on 16 August 2025

    Lots of talk about Moses Itauma being finally stepped up, and will face former WBC Interim Champion Dillian Whyte. Old Dillian isn't anywhere near the level he was at 6 years ago. But if he can get it right in the gym then he'll be the toughest test Itauma has been given.

    I think it's a great fight. For too long Itauma has been touted as a contender, despite never beating another contender. Not sure he's beaten anybody in the Top 15. So I'm happy to see Moses finally being tested by someone who's going to be firing back.

      A great fight for team Itauma is it is true. Whyte is washed up at this point.

              He barely threw a punch vs fury over 3 years ago so i at least hope he has a go here but i have my doubts.

                  Perfect walk over fight for Itauma. Whyte would only throw 3 punches a round 5 years ago. He probably throws just 1 punch now...and he doesn't move out of the way of punches. How old is he now?

                      He's been a pro for 2 years.

                                      Perfect level fight for Itauma. Whyte has name recognition and zero interest in winning fights. Penultimate step before moving on to an eliminator.
