Popular British boxer Dave Allen has predicted that rising heavyweight talent Moses Itauma will secure an early stoppage victory against veteran Dillian Whyte in their upcoming bout.
The two British heavyweights are scheduled to face off in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on August 16, 2025, in what represents a significant step up in competition for the younger Itauma.
Allen Backs Itauma's Youth and Talent
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Allen expressed confidence in Itauma's abilities against the more experienced Whyte, who has previously challenged for a world title.
"My early prediction would be an Itauma stoppage, in a couple of rounds as well. It's all about the timing," Allen stated.
"Even the best Dillian Whyte would be a hard ask, [but] Itauma is a real scary talent," he added, highlighting the younger fighter's potential.
Timing and Age Factors
Allen pointed to Whyte's age and inactivity as key factors that could influence the outcome of the fight.
"They're getting Whyte at the right time and he is 37 years old and hasn't been in the ring for a long time," Allen explained. "So I think Itauma will stop Whyte pretty early."
The bout represents a classic boxing matchup between youth and experience, with Itauma looking to make a statement against a well-established name in the heavyweight division.
As reported by BenriNews earlier, this fight marks a significant opportunity for Itauma to elevate his standing in the heavyweight ranks by facing Whyte, who brings considerable experience as a former world title challenger.
Boxing enthusiasts will be watching closely to see if Allen's prediction proves accurate when the two fighters meet in the ring this August in Saudi Arabia.
