[]
Boxing News
Moses Itauma‘s possible career path has become a lot clearer after he was officially named as the mandatory challenger for a reigning world heavyweight champion.
“The heavyweight division has one official mandatory challenger: Moses Itauma, who currently holds the No.
1 spot in the rankings and has been awaiting his world title opportunity for several months.
As such, that victory did not make him the WBA’s official mandatory challenger.”
It means Itauma now has another avenue for a world title shot, having already been ordered to negotiate with Frank Sanchez for a fight for the vacant IBF heavyweight title.
