Boxing enthusiasts are buzzing with discussions after Tyson Fury hinted that Moses Itauma could outmatch him if they ever faced off in the ring. Fury experienced consecutive defeats against Ukrainian boxer last year, relinquishing his world championship title in their first bout and failing to recapture it in the rematch. Following a brief retirement announcement, Fury reversed his decision and confirmed his comeback to the boxing scene next year.
On the other hand, Usyk showcased his dominance by stopping Daniel Dubois in their Wembley rematch recently, indicating his intention to compete once more before retiring. Fury took to social media over the weekend to predict that Usyk would succumb to the emerging British talent, Moses Itauma, who impressively defeated Dillian Whyte. “I keep getting asked about young Moses Itauma fighting Oleksandr Usyk and all the other big names,” Fury mentioned in a social media video, emphasizing his wealth of boxing experience and success.
Expressing his belief that boxing favors the young, Fury confidently asserted that Itauma would outshine the older fighters in the division, including Usyk, AJ, and others. Responding promptly to Fury’s comments, fans shared mixed opinions, with some suggesting Fury’s bitterness towards his own losses to Usyk. Itauma, however, refrained from directly challenging Usyk, expressing his readiness to face deserving opponents like Agit Kabayel and Joseph Parker in the future.
The boxing world remains abuzz with speculations and reactions to Fury’s bold statements and Itauma’s promising potential in the sport.
