Despite Usyk recently saying that he's not interested in a fight with Itauma, Hearn is confident that Oleksandr will agree to fight Moses once he slightly improves his record.
“I understand when you've achieved everything, you might think: ‘This guy needs to earn the fight.’ Itauma boxed with Dillian Whyte, who probably wasn't in the best condition at that time.
Let him go out and beat a few more fighters—and I'm sure Usyk will fight Itauma,” said Hearn in an interview with the YouTube channel Pro Boxing Fans.
