‘Subconscious’ Moses Itauma skill will be crucial against Filip Hrgovic, says Carl Froch
Interview: Froch spoke ahead of Saturday’s fight, in which 21-year-old Itauma faces Hrgovic for the vacant IBF heavyweight title
Carl Froch is confident that 21-year-old heavyweight sensation Moses Itauma will easily overcome Croatian opponent Filip Hrgovic in their upcoming bout. Itauma, with an impressive 14-0 record, has been noted for his natural talent and rapid hand speed, making him a formidable opponent. Despite Hrgovic's recent string of wins, Froch believes Itauma will pass the "Hrgovic test" and emerge victorious, potentially becoming the youngest heavyweight champion since Mike Tyson.
Hrgovic, 34, will face his first full world title bout, having previously fought for the interim IBF belt.
