Moses Itauma vs Filip Hrgovic at the O2

Active Digital is pleased to be hosting a hospitality box at The O2 on Saturday 29 August for one of the most anticipated heavyweight contests of the year, as undefeated British sensation Moses Itauma takes on world-class contender Filip Hrgovic.

At just 21 years old, Itauma is widely regarded as one of the brightest prospects in world boxing. Holding the WBO Intercontinental, WBA International and Commonwealth heavyweight titles, he has rapidly built a reputation as one of the division’s most exciting fighters, with a string of explosive stoppage victories propelling him towards world title contention.

Standing in his way is Croatia’s Filip Hrgovic, a seasoned heavyweight and former IBF No.1 contender. The 2016 Olympic medallist brings significant experience to the ring and enters the fight on the back of impressive victories over Joe Joyce, David Adeleye and Dave Allen. With only one defeat on his professional record, Hrgovic represents the toughest test of Itauma’s career to date.

The clash has all the ingredients of a classic heavyweight encounter, pitting youth, speed and knockout power against proven world-level experience. With both fighters looking to strengthen their world title aspirations, the stakes could not be higher.

Promoter Frank Warren has described the bout as a crucial benchmark in Itauma’s development, while DAZN has labelled it a blockbuster showdown with major implications for the heavyweight division.

Guests joining Active Digital at The O2 can look forward to an evening of elite boxing and networking, culminating in what promises to be one of the standout fights on the British boxing calendar.
