It seems like heavyweight Moses Itauma’s future coronation is a done deal, but promoter Francis Warren knows there will be obstacles to overcome on the journey ahead.

A rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois is being eyed, but first the two have to secure exemptions for their mandatory challengers.

Francis Warren has explained his move away from Queensberry Promotions after nearly 18 years working for his father’s company. Warren is now no longer employed by Queensberry after deciding to go it alone as a manager, with 10 boxers already under contract.

Frank Warren, co-promoter for WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, is pressing to get a date set down for the unification with IBF, WBO, IBO, WBA champion Anthony Joshua. Earlier this month, it was revealed that both boxers had signed their respective portions of a two-fight agreement.

True to its word, Queensberry Poland has hit the ground running in scooping up blue chip prospects. The newly formed promotional company–headed by Mariusz Krawczynski and Francis Warren—has signed a pair of Russian amateur stars in Andrey Kovalchuk and Alisa Sharifov to promotional pacts. Both will make their respective pro debuts under the QP Poland banner later this fall. Kovalchuk and Sharifov will also fight under the guidance of co-managers Max Alperovich and Eduard Kravtsov of Premier Management Group. Given the rich amateur pedigree boasted by both boxers, the plan is to not waste any time in advancing to the sport's highest stage.
