Undefeated American KO artist confronted with potential battle by Moses Itauma, boasting of his victory potential
Moses Itauma, the undefeated heavyweight boxer currently ranked No.1 by the WBO and recently No.1 by the WBA, has had his upcoming fight delayed due to an injury. The mandatory challenger, Joseph Parker, was set to face Itauma, but the showdown has been postponed.
Itauma, with 11 knockouts in his 13 professional wins, recently dispatched Dillian Whyte in one round, considered his biggest career victory. His next bout, scheduled for before the end of 2025, will likely not be severely challenging. However, the boxing world is buzzing with anticipation for a potential match against Richard Torrez Jr, a rising heavyweight prospect in the US.
Torrez Jr, a professional American heavyweight boxer and 2021 Olympic silver medalist, is currently undefeated with a record of 13 wins and 11 knockouts. Ranked No. 20 among heavyweights, he is actively pursuing notable fights, and a showdown with Itauma would undoubtedly be a significant event.
Torrez Jr believes he can have great fights against Itauma, and a potential match-up is something he considers a huge opportunity. Unfortunately, it is currently unclear when Torrez Jr's next outing will be.
Meanwhile, Filip Hrgovic appears to have rejected a bout with Itauma, leaving Torrez Jr as a potential opponent for the undefeated champion. Lennox Lewis has urged Itauma to avoid facing the unbeaten champion for the time being.
Itauma, however, is focusing on his next bout, and an official opponent for his fight on December 13 has yet to be confirmed. The boxing world eagerly awaits the announcement, hoping for a clash between Itauma and Torrez Jr that would undoubtedly be a spectacle to behold.
