UDavid Haye uveze ukuthi uMoses Itauma, osemusha kodwa ophakamisa amathuba, uyinkosi ye-heavyweight ephuphile kakhulu, futhi uveze ukuthi uyamangala ukuthi akekho ofuna ukumhlula.
Haye uqale ngokukhuphuka esikhathini esifushane esithatha eminyakeni emithathu kuphela, wayephinde waba ngumlingani we-cruiserweight wehlangano yomhlaba ngaphambi kokuphumelela kwe-heavyweight futhi athole isicoco somhlaba ngemuva kokunqoba uNikolai Valuev, omunye wama-giants kwezokulwa.
Ngemuva kokuthi imizwa yakhe iphazamiseke ngenxa yokulimala, Haye wagcina ethathe umhlalaphansi ngo-2018 emva kokulahlekelwa okuphindwe kabili kuTony Bellew.
Lapho ekhuluma ne-iFL TV, manje ebheka ezingeni le-heavyweight, uHaye uphume ngokuvuma kakhulu ngoMoses Itauma, osemusha futhi okhuphuka ngokushesha.
“Yebo, ngicabanga ukuthi uyawahlula wonke umuntu. Ngicabanga ukuthi uyawahlula wonke umuntu. Umuntu kuphela ongaba yinkinga ngu-Usyk, lowo kuphela… Ngokuphumelela kwakhe kuDillian Whyte – kubonakala kuphumelelayo, kuyadumaza – kodwa akukho okungalungile kumdlalo wakhe. Angiboni ukuthi umuntu angaphula, noma yini engalungile. Konke kuhamba kahle futhi angikaze ngibone okuthile okufana nalokhu.”
UMoses Itauma, oneminyaka engu-20 kuphela, kodwa usuphumelele kakhulu futhi ukhuthazwa njengomfana ozoqhubeka edlula phezulu. Ku-13 yakhe imidlalo, ubonise ijubane elihle lokushaya, isikhono sokuzwisisa izikhathi zomjaho, kanye namandla okuphosa amaphonsi, eshaya abanye abahlali abayishumi nanye, kuhlanganise nonyaka wokushaya kwe-Dillian Whyte ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule, okukhuphule kakhulu ukuzingela.
Nokho, nakuba uHaye ekhomba ukuthi usulungele ukubhekana no-Usyk, abanye abantu bakholelwa ukuthi kufanele aqhubeke nokufunda.
Okwamanje, kulindeleke ukuthi alwe nohlangothi lwezikhulu ezisemathubeni, okungaba njengo-Top 10, kodwa ukuthola umphikisi kulokhu kuqhubeka kube nzima. Umphromotha uFrank Warren usanda kuxoxa ukuthi uFilip Hrgovic, ophakanyisiwe njengophikisi, kungenzeka ukuthi angeqondi ukuthatha isikhumbuzo sokulwa naye.
