Moses Itauma Breaks into Top 15 of WBC Heavyweight Rankings

Posted : 17 June 2025

British-Nigerian heavyweight boxer Moses Itauma has taken a major step forward in his professional journey, securing the 11th spot in the latest World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight rankings. This achievement marks a significant milestone in the career of the 20-year-old rising star, whose performances continue to draw attention within the global boxing community.

Itauma remains undefeated with a professional record of 12 wins and no losses, including 10 victories by knockout. His consistent display of power, precision, and ring intelligence has made him one of the most promising talents in the heavyweight division.

In addition to his latest WBC ranking, Itauma is also recognized across the other major sanctioning bodies. He is currently ranked first by the World Boxing Organization (WBO), third by the World Boxing Association (WBA), and seventh by the International Boxing Federation (IBF).

His rise in the WBO standings was largely fueled by his recent second-round technical knockout victory over American veteran Mike Balogun. That match, held at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow, earned Itauma the WBO Inter-Continental Heavyweight title and reinforced his reputation as a fast-rising contender.

While many observers have praised Itauma’s discipline and natural talent, some analysts believe that his toughest tests lie ahead. They note that most of his opponents so far have been experienced but not elite, and argue that his next bouts will be critical in determining whether he is ready for a world title challenge.

Itauma is scheduled to face former WBC title challenger Dillian Whyte on August 16 in Riyadh. The upcoming match is expected to be a turning point in his career, offering him a chance to prove himself against a seasoned and respected opponent.

As anticipation builds, boxing fans and commentators alike will be watching closely to see whether Itauma can continue his impressive ascent and take one step closer to becoming a world champion.
