Boxing figures overwhelmingly favour Britain’s Moses Itauma to beat Croatia’s Filip Hrgovic for the vacant IBF heavyweight title at London’s O2 Arena, although several warn it will be his toughest professional test. A win would make the unbeaten 21-year-old the youngest heavyweight world champion since Mike Tyson in 1986.

– Most pundits predict an Itauma stoppage, citing his speed, accuracy, movement and heavyweight power.
– Predictions range from an early finish within three rounds to a stoppage in the sixth or seventh.
– Hrgovic, 34, is viewed as tough, experienced and dangerous, with a 20-1 record and Olympic bronze medal.
– Some believe Hrgovic’s durability could test Itauma in the later rounds, while cuts are considered a possible factor.
