Who are the key names on the Moses Itauma-Dillian Whyte undercard?

The headline act beneath the main bout in Riyadh will be the presence of Nick Ball, as the Liverpool fighter heads back to the Middle East for his next title defence.

The WBA featherweight champion faces Sam Goodman, who steps up a division following his two aborted bouts with Naoya Inoue either side of the new year.

Both men have made no secret of their desire to eventually face 'The Monster', and this clash could prove to be a shoot-out for a chance against the Japanese kingpin.

Further down the bill, David Adeleye makes the step up from the domestic level, having relinquished the Lonsdale Belt to begin his challenge at world level.

In Filip Hrgovic, he faces a particularly tricky customer, a man ranked #2 by the WBO and with his own designs on a full world title shot looming in the distance.

Victory for either man will through them further into the heart of a congested glamour division battle, as the future of all four belts swirls alongside Oleksandr Usyk's next call.

Where is the Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte fight?

The country has become the home of boxing in recent years, with major Riyadh Season events drawing fighters and fans from around the globe.

Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte form and history

Over the past two years, Itauma has steadily built his reputation as a teenage talent poised to shoot for the stars, while Whyte has struggled to reignite his career.

Neither man has arguably fought world-class opposition in the three years since Whyte suffered a third career loss against Tyson Fury at Wembley Stadium in April 2022.

That makes this battle all the more fascinating, as Itauma looks to tackle a man practically old enough to be his father in the ring, and set the stage for further challenges.

Such is his youthful promise, the former seems destined to face men close to a decade older for him for a world title over the next few years if he comes through this bout.

Defeat however, like that handed to Johnny Fisher by Dave Allen earlier this year, will ask questions over what the talent has in his back locker following a first loss.

Likewise, Whyte cannot really afford defeat if he hopes to still be seen as a top-tier contender capable of pushing world champions all the way, following three lesser foes.
