Jamaica-born Londoner Whyte brings a wealth of experience, having won 31 of his 34 professional fights.<\/p>\n
He has shared the ring with some of the division’s biggest names, including Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury, and holds notable wins over Derek Chisora and Joseph Parker.<\/p>\n
“I’ve had a few main events and a few pay-per-views, but there is so much more left for me to achieve in the game,” added Whyte.<\/p>\n
His career has stalled in recent years, though.<\/p>\n
A stoppage win over Ebenezer Tetteh last December was unconvincing, but Whyte appears to be in his best physical shape for some time.<\/p>\n
“I’m someone who is not supposed to be here,” added the ‘Body Snatcher’.<\/p>\n
“Never had a great amateur career, no support. A kid from Jamaica who has been written off many times, not meant to survive, meant to be dead before I was in my 20s. But here I am doing stuff, so what more can I say?”<\/p>\n
Chatham’s Itauma is a powerful and agile southpaw, once tipped as the man who could break Mike Tyson’s record as the youngest heavyweight champion.<\/p>\n
Although that timeline has passed, excitement around the Slovakia-born fighter remains high. <\/p>\n
Itauma has already stopped 10 of his 12 professional opponents and boasts a perfect 24-0 amateur record.<\/p>\n
“This is the start of greatness,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
