The rising star will face one of the veterans of the domestic British scene and a former world title challenger atop a stacked bill filled with star names live on DAZN Pay-Per-View.

Despite having just 12 professional fights, Itauma is being tipped as the future of British heavyweight boxing with his 10 knockout victories sending shockwaves across the boxing world. 

Whyte on the other hand will have other ideas, and is in the best possible shape to upset one of boxing's most exciting prospects.

Where is Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte set to take place?

Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte is set to be held at ANB Arena  in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia .

Formerly known as The Venue, the 8,000-capacity venue has hosted multiple combat sports events since it opened its doors as a key Riyadh Season venue.

The card was originally announced with no specific venue and only the Saudi Arabian capital listed as its destination.

There had been questions whether it could take place at Kingdom Arena, where several major boxing events including Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury's duology have taken place.

Moses Itauma and Dillian Whyte's Riyadh records

Saturday's fight against Whyte will be Itauma's fourth visit to Riyadh, and it was December's first round knockout of Demsey McKean which is probably the most memorable on the undercard of Oleksadr Usyk's rematch with Tyson Fury. 

The Saudi Arabian capital is a happy hunting ground for Itauma who has won all three of his previous fights there by knockout. 

While Whyte has fought in Saudi Arabia before with a win against Mariusz Wach in 2019, this will be the first time he has fought in Riyadh, boxing's new epicentre.
