Dillian Whyte vs. Moses Itauma | PPV - 16 August 2025

[joshj909]

Moses by KO. I think Whyte of 2016-21 would make this competitive and would arguably be favourite but he is inactive, chinny, past it and off the juice. I don't see him winning unless he can roll back the years somehow.

Lawrence Okolie left in the corner holding the proverbial todger.

I'll be honest, I don't remember too many proverbs about todgers

Plenty about birds, bushes, worms & clouds but not todgers.

Nice fight, it will be an electric couple of rounds while it lasts. Only downside is it’s in Saudi- Should be on the undercard at Wembley under AJ or DDD USYK

[gregregegg]

oooo, this was my wildcard reason for whyte pulling out... But, I just couldent see it being the best financial option....like surely between wilder, AJ, and Parker there is a bigger pay day for whyte... but looks like fwanks put his big boy pants on and got his checkbook out (fwanks papa, the excellent one...).

Shit thing about this is it potentially still tells us nothing.... I'm not sure if Whyte is 12th in the world or 120th...I tend to lean much closer to the latter.... Put it this way, if they made Whyte vs Chisora right now Id have chisora a heavy favorite.

Itamu by KO before we get to find out anything is my prediction.... But at least may have to respect his opponents and the possibility of a hard shot coming back.

Second problem is how to you wind Moses back once he (if he does) splatters Whyte.... I guess you don't.

Ballsy fight for Itauma.

Whyte is past his best, but he will be by far Moses's best opponent.

If Itauma is as good as I think he's going to be, he should stop Whyte, although I'm getting some Carl Thompson/David Haye vibes for some reason.

As long as Itauma systematically breaks down Whyte, rather than going all-out for a show reel knock out.

[margaret thatcher]

whats with ball fighting another guy pulled up from 122?

i think moses will do whyte early but defo quite a step up on paper

cacace-ford a really good fight

This is a terrible card for PPV. Hope there is more big names to be added

[Ruthless-RKO]

Moses was scheduled for Wembley on the Usyk-Dubois card. So I guess that’s off.

That's what this should be on, in front of an actual crowd with atmosphere. This isn't a main event fight and they can shove the PPV.

Whyte's a scrub who fails a test or pulls out with an injury every chance he gets, and even when he does fight now he doesn't even try. I can't believe he's getting this, on the back of nothing really.

I think Whyte is cashing out and wouldn't come cheaply.
But yeah, PPV is taking the piss.

[Contendeh]

So does Moses still fight in July on the Usyk undercard?

Why not have him fight back to back months against a no hoper like an 86 Iron Mike?

Build a bit of a buzz, then?

[gilgamesh]

A Heavyweight Crossroads fight at it's finest.

Dillian Whyte, the British Heavyweight prospect turned contender that almost, but never quite panned out the way people had hoped vs Moses Itauma the next Heavyweight prospect that everyone is touting to be the next big thing.

Great matchup. I look forward to it.

I believe the saying is actually "a todger in each hand is worth two in the bush" it was once said by one of my favorite philosophers, Bonnie blue.

[a force]

Won’t go past 3 rounds. There’s a good chance it’s over in one.

[Taansend]

I think if Whyte can get below 250 pounds he makes a decent go of it.

The 260ish Whyte gets stopped fairly rapido.

[joshj909]

I think only the Whyte tactics of Whyte vs Parker can win this. Impose his size and strength. Just haven't seen that for so long.

only worked cause he got the better side of a nasty head clash.

Which was very earlier on in the fight.

Parker still had fight in him throughout and Whyte was nearly gone by round 10 onwards.

This has a David Price vs Audley Harrison feel about it. It'll be over inside 3 rounds. Whyte is 37 with a suspect chin and looked absolutely awful last time out. But, I've got no time for drug cheats, so I hope he gets sparked.

[MasterG]

Isn't Moses on the Wembley undercard? Either his name will be scrubbed or a bloody easy nights work.

He will be getting sparked out

[tony1234]

I hope they get a sub on stand by going by Whyte's previous form in pulling out. Will take some selling to make this a success especially as it clashes with start of PL season

PPV ??? Jesus
