Moses Itauma’s fight against American Jermaine Franklin has been rescheduled for March after the British heavyweight picked up an injury while training. The 21-year-old is unbeaten in 13 fights while 32-year-old Franklin has 24 wins and two losses on his record. “Unfortunately Moses Itauma has sustained an injury in camp and therefore the Magnificent 7 show has been re-scheduled for 28 March,” promoters Queensberry said. American Franklin has lost just two of his 26 contests, with those defeats coming against Anthony Joshua and Whyte. Itauma stepped into the ring twice in 2025 and had been expected to fight on 13 December before a raft of issues delayed his return.
