Rising British heavyweight Moses Itauma has addressed Oleksandr Usyk’s recent comments about not wanting to face him.
Unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk recently said he does not want to fight the young Brit because he has no interest in “breaking” a promising contender who respects him and is widely viewed as one of the division’s top prospects.
“Listen, he has to say something to the media. I respect Usyk a lot. I’m not offended because I know that isn’t true. People on camera are not always who they really are. Usyk has something to say to the media.
If I get the opportunity, I’ll take it. If not, then not. I feel like people want to see something different from Usyk. That’s why the Tyson Fury fight is more of the same. Rico ... by the way, I’m a big fan of his. That’s something different. Fabio Wardley is a completely different fight,” Moses said in an interview with the iFL TV YouTube channel.
