Tyson Fury has been speaking about Moses Itauma‘s chances in a fight with Anthony Joshua following his most recent win.
Itauma is still just 20-years-old but has now stopped 11 of his 13 opponents, and the last nine of them have all come inside the first two rounds.
This past Saturday, he added the best name yet to his CV when he stopped former world title challenger and teak-tough veteran Dillian Whyte inside just two minutes, despite the fact ‘The Bodysnatcher’ has previously had wars with the likes of Joshua, Derek Chisora, Joseph Parker and many more.
As such, he is already coming good on the promise that led the likes of Fury and Oleksandr Usyk to name him as the future of the division.
Speaking on his own social media, ‘The Gypsy King’ has now once again thrown his full backing behind Itauma and claimed he could beat all comers in the division, including former unified champion Joshua.
“So here is the opinion, and you heard it here first: Moses Itauma will wreck all them old men out of the division. Usyk, AJ, Miller. Whoever is there that’s old. Zhang, whoever else the f**k there is. Luis Ortiz. All these big names of the past.”
Joshua has not fought since September last year when he took on another young rising star in Daniel Dubois but was stopped inside five rounds. He has been recovering from elbow surgery ever since and has been linked with the likes of Jake Paul for a potential return.
Itauma, meanwhile, has called out Usyk, though many believe there is no need to rush into what is quite possibly the hardest fight in all of boxing.
