The head of the Matchroom Boxing promotional company, Eddie Hearn, discussed the upcoming fight of British heavyweight prospect Moses Ituma against former title challenger Dillian Whyte.

“Undoubtedly, the money will be incredible at this stage of Whyte’s career. But I’m not saying that he is taking this fight for the money. Dillian is a fighter. I’m sure he believes he can win this fight.

This is yet another huge night in Riyadh. Dillian is still active. He is a great heavyweight. He is very tough. I think that Whyte chose to fight Ituma instead of Anthony Joshua, and I wish him good luck. This is a tough fight, but I believe that because of Dillian’s style and activity, it’s a nightmare,” said Hearn.

Let’s remind that the fight between Ituma and Whyte will take place on August 16 in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
