Undercard Predictions for Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte Fight Night

Before the main event between Moses Itauma and Dillian Whyte captures the spotlight in Riyadh, fight fans will be treated to a stacked undercard featuring world title fights, rising prospects, and high-stakes heavyweight action. Here’s a breakdown of the undercard and predictions for each key bout:

Nick Ball vs Sam Goodman – WBA Featherweight Title

This is arguably the most competitive bout on the card outside of the main event. Nick Ball, known for his relentless pressure and high output, comes into this fight with something to prove after his split draw with Rey Vargas. On the other hand, Sam Goodman remains unbeaten and has looked composed, sharp, and technically sound in his rise through the ranks.

Prediction: A close contest early, but Ball’s aggression could wear Goodman down. Expect Ball to edge a tough decision or secure a late stoppage.

Ray Ford vs Abraham Nova – Super Featherweight Clash

Raymond Ford has developed into a smart, disciplined fighter with sharp southpaw counters and good footwork. Abraham Nova, while heavy-handed and experienced, has struggled when opponents take away his rhythm.

Prediction: Ford to control the pace and space. A comfortable unanimous decision for Ford is likely, though a late knockdown isn’t out of the question.

Filip Hrgovic vs David Adeleye – Heavyweight Bout

This heavyweight showdown brings intrigue. Filip Hrgovic is still unbeaten and viewed as one of the most avoided contenders in the division. David Adeleye is a confident puncher, but his defense remains questionable, especially when facing more technical opponents.

Prediction: Adeleye may have his moments early, but Hrgovic’s composure, jab, and experience should overwhelm him. Expect Hrgovic to win via TKO in rounds 5-7.

Hayato Tsutsumi vs Qais Ashfaq – Featherweight Clash

Japanese standout Hayato Tsutsumi is one of the most technically gifted featherweights rising today. Qais Ashfaq, a former Team GB Olympian, has good skills but has fallen short against stronger opposition.

Prediction: Tsutsumi likely outclasses Ashfaq with his speed and ring IQ. Expect a wide points win or possibly a late referee stoppage if Tsutsumi begins to dominate.
