DAZN Exclusive - These three heavyweights will cause problems for Itauma claims Hearn

Moses is the talk of the boxing world, but unfortunately for him, it is because of his defeat to Filip Hrgovic. 

The pair clashed last weekend for the vacant IBF world heavyweight title, and despite Moses' fast start, he was eventually stopped by Hrgovic in the ninth round due to exhaustion. 

Hearn names three difficult heavyweight opponents for Moses

It's expected Moses will take some time to recover from the defeat to Hrgovic before making his return. 

When asked by DAZN News' Eze Obasi about what he would do next with Moses, Hearn suggested that he would try and get the 21-year-old back to winning ways before the end of the year. 

"I would not put him in with someone who is durable," Hearn said. "If you can sneak a fight in this year, in December, a good win under the belt."

Hearn then started to get excited about possibly matching some of his heavyweights against Moses.

The promoter has amassed a solid heavyweight stable which includes two former world champions, and several rising prospects. 

"I was looking at some of the guys we’ve got, Andy Ruiz who fights Friday, I’m saying yes please to Itauma and Hrgovic.

"If Andy Ruiz shows form this Friday night, he’s a real problem.

"Teremoana, he’s six foot seven, fast hands, big power and a granite chin. If you’ve got the chin, if you’ve got the power and you can duke it out with these guys in the back stages of fights, you’re a major problem.

"Same with Jarrell Miller, this heavyweight division is wide open."

Ruiz is no stranger to spoiling the dreams of British heavyweights. He produced one of the biggest upsets in recent boxing history by stopping Anthony Joshua in 2019 to become unified world heavyweight champion. 

However, Ruiz has been inactive as of late, but the American returns to action on Friday night when he faces Damian Knyba live on DAZN.
