Preparation of Moses Itauma for the fight with Joseph Parker
- Joseph Parker is planning a fight with Moses Itauma.
- Moses Itauma is getting ready for a fight with Dillian Whyte.
- A victory for Itauma could open the way for a fight for the WBO title.
This is reported by Sky Sports, Marca.
Joseph Parker is eager to meet Oleksandr Usyk, but may first face the young boxer Moses Itauma. Parker's team reported that no negotiations are currently being held with Usyk's representatives. Oleksandr Usyk recently won four heavyweight titles, defeating Daniel Dubois.
At the same time, Moses Itauma is preparing for a fight with Dillian Whyte, who is becoming his biggest challenge to date. If Itauma secures a victory, his promoter is already planning subsequent fights, including possible meetings with boxers like Otto Wallin and Filip Hrgovic.
In the event that Usyk retains the WBO title, Parker may meet Itauma for this championship belt. Parker's promoter, David Higgins, stated that there are currently no active negotiations with Usyk, and there remains a possibility that Usyk may not choose to defend his title.
Itauma's trainer, Ben Davison, believes that a fight with Usyk would be beneficial for both boxers. He noted that Itauma is young and has the potential to become a serious superstar for Usyk in the future.
