Itauma majestic, Fundora on fire: Five things we learned from boxing last week
Another week of blockbuster boxing action is in the rearview mirror, with several of the sport's key players delivering the goods again.
Moses Itauma's brutal victory over Jermaine Franklin has put the heavyweight division on further notice, stoking further title talk to boot.
Elsewhere, Sebastian Fundora dispatched Keith Thurman in his latest WBC light-middleweight defence, among other major matters.
Here, DAZN News looks back at the week in boxing - and picks out five key stories worth revisiting as we head for the next seven days.
Chisora and Wilder ready to deliver war

Itauma rubber-stamps contender status
Moses Itauma's credentials as a future world champion have been touted for some time - but they appear very real right now.
The star's five-round hit job on American Franklin handed the experienced fighter a first professional stoppage defeat in style.
Itauma wants a shot at a crown this year, and the clamour for his chance will only grow louder after such a ruthless result.
Allen books shock homecoming
Dave Allen's hopes of challenging for the British heavyweight title this year suggested a quiet test might be next in store.
Instead, the Doncaster fighter will headline a hometown show at the Eco-Power Stadium against Filip Hrgovic instead.

The move sent shockwaves through plenty of pundits, but Allen remains confident he can offer a serious test to the Croatian.
Fundora demolishes Thurman
Sebastian Fundora extended his reign as WBC light-middleweight champion with nary a second thought for his opponent.
Keith Thurman may have raged against the decision to stop the contest in the sixth round, but he can hardly complain.
The challenger found himself on the wrong end of a terrific showcase for Fundora's skill set, and will need to rebuild again.
Golden Boy pens new DAZN deal
Fresh off the back of Top Rank signing a blockbuster contract with DAZN, Golden Boy Promotions followed suit last week.

Oscar De La Hoya will call the global home of boxing his first-choice destination for fight action after penning fresh terms.
“We’re firing on all cylinders right now,” the legendary boxer-turned-promoter said after he had signed on the dotted line.
Anderson signs Queensberry deal
Jared Anderson has joined the stable of heavyweights at Queensberry Promotions, marking a major move for the star.
The American put pen to paper on a contract with Frank Warren and company ahead of the Itauma-Franklin clash.
Anderson will make his debut with the company against Solomon Dacres this May on the Wardley-Dubois undercard.
