Impossible to break Tyson record – Itauma

Impossible to break Tyson record – Itauma

Moses Itauma, a rising British star, claims it was “impossible” for him to surpass Mike Tyson’s record for the youngest heavyweight world champion.

Itauma passed away on Saturday at the age of 20 when Tyson became a world champion in 1986.

“I realized that this is impossible in my first two months of professional work.” When I said that, I was naive. Before I became a professional, I said that.

In this boxing match, I didn’t realize how much you couldn’t control. You would assume that Oleksandr Usyk, Tyson Fury, and Daniel Dubois have been the world’s champions since I first started playing professionally.

“I would not have been able to fight them in two years.”

Mike Balogun’s two-round defeat on Saturday gave Itauma a record-tying 12 victories and 10 shutouts.

Itauma has been linked to a number of famous people, including Joe Joyce, in the hopes of securing a world title in the coming years.

Otto Wallin, Jermaine Franklin, and Martin Bakole have all been mentioned as potential opponents, and Itauma’s promoter Frank Warren has stated that he will fight Oleksandr Usyk on July 19 at Wembley Stadium on the sidelines of Dubois’ world title defense.

Itauma said his team wants him to be in some “10-round fights” before advancing one level over his opponents, not a big name.

There are “tough cookies” that don’t have a name for themselves. He claimed that this is “not ideal.”
