Itauma vs Whyte - Heavyweight contender who has faced Whyte makes two rounds prediction
Dave Allen knows what it takes to step into the ring with Dillian Whyte after once falling short against his domestic rival.
In 2016, when rebuilding after a loss to Anthony Joshua, Whyte took on Allen when they clashed in Leeds for a minor WBC belt.
Whyte was victorious on the scorecards as he marched towards a world title shot many years later, but now he is at a different stage in his career.
The heavy-handed prospect, still only 20 years of age, has blitzed his way through the rankings in since turning professional and he is on the verge of challenging for a world title.
After disposing of respected contenders such as Demsey McKean and Mike Balogun, Itauma will now go in with Whyte as he looks to do a better job than what Joshua and Tyson Fury, who both stopped Whyte, could manage.
Allen, who is also pursuing a big fight after stopping Johnny Fisher in May, believes it could be an easy night’s work for Itauma.
“My early prediction would be an Itauma stoppage, in a couple of rounds as well. It’s all about the timing. Even the best Dillian Whyte would be a hard ask [for him] because Itauma is a real scary talent,” said Allen when speaking on his own YouTube channel.
“They’re getting Whyte at the right time, he’s 37, not been in the ring for a long time. So I think Itauma will stop him pretty early.”
