Moses Itauma and Johnny Fisher Join Fury-Usyk Undercard

Moses Itauma and Johnny Fisher will join the undercard for Tyson Fury’s rematch against Oleksandr Usyk on December 21 in Saudi Arabia. Itauma will face Australian Demsey McKean while Fisher will fight fellow Brit Dave Allen. Both fighters remain undefeated in their careers and have earned recognition as potential future stars in the heavyweight division.

The undercard also features Dennis McCann, who will compete against Liverpudlian Peter McGrail in an exciting super-bantamweight matchup. McCann boasts an undefeated record of 17 fights while McGrail holds one loss in his 11 bouts. Fisher, 25 will battle the experienced 32-year-old Allen, who carries a record of 23 wins, 6 losses and 2 draws.

Fisher has achieved 11 knockouts in his 12 victories, showcasing his knockout power. Meanwhile, the 19-year-old Itauma aims to build on his impressive record of 8 knockouts in 10 fights against McKean, who presents a significant challenge. McKean a southpaw has suffered only one defeat in his 23 fights, losing to Filip Hrgovic last year. The highly anticipated rematch sees Fury seeking revenge against Usyk after losing their undisputed title bout in May.

With Fury aiming to become a three-time heavyweight world champion, the undercard fights featuring rising talents like Itauma and Fisher add excitement and intrigue to the event. Their performances could set the stage for the next generation of heavyweight contenders while Fury looks to reclaim his title against Usyk in what promises to be a thrilling clash.
