Moses Itauma has been relatively untested in the professional ring despite earning a shot at the heavyweight world title, but as an amateur, there is one bout that sticks out to the 21-year-old as his ‘toughest’ encounter. Reflecting on his days as an amateur, Itauma admitted that a 2019 meeting with British cruiserweight Aloys Youmbi was his toughest fight, in an interview with talkSPORT. “My most challenging fight in my amateur career would definitely have been against Aloys [Youmbi] Junior, who is also boxing on the same night, he also trains at the Ben Davison stable. “I remember, it was the junior semi-finals and I didn’t know who he was, he knew who I was. “He was definitely my toughest fight, as an amateur.”
