"If only we had enough time!" - commented Turki Al Al-Sheikh on a potential fight between Moses Itauma (11-0, 9 KOs) and Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs). According to the Saudi promoter, for it could be a "dream fight".
The 20-year-old has four months left to potentially break Mike Tyson's record. Most likely, he will not become the youngest heavyweight champion of the world. Still, a fight with the Ukrainian would be a big event in the boxing world. Usyk's record includes several Brits - Fury (x2), Joshua (x2), Dubois, Chisora and Bellew - so the banks of the Thames are counting on someone to finally break this losing streak.
"I'd love to see that fight, but we won't impose anything. We'll only do it if we have enough time. I'd like to see history made and Itauma become the youngest heavyweight champion in history. I've heard great things about his sparring with Daniel Dubois. This is probably the greatest talent in British boxing, and in the whole world," said the Saudi prince, who is the main source of big financial fights in professional boxing today.
