I'LL SKIP USYK

Itauma's aiming to bide time after first-round Whyte-out

- by CHRIS McKENNA

MOSES ITAUMA insists he will not call out undisputed king Oleksandr Usyk because he does not believe he deserves the chance yet.

The British heavyweight ripped through Dillian Whyte at the weekend with a stunning first-round stoppage in Saudi Arabia.

Itauma, 20, made light work of the former world title challenger to catapult himself into contention for even bigger fights.

But he is not yet champing at the bit to get a shot at Usyk (inset) as he wants to work his way through the rest of the division first.

He said: "I put on a performance for you guys, so it's now, 'Who's next?'

"I don't want to call out Usyk because I don't believe I deserve the opportunity, but guys that do deserve the opportunity, I want to fight those lot.
