Tyson Fury reacts to ‘shocking’ Moses Itauma vs Filip Hrgovic fight

Moses Itauma, 21, was stopped in round nine by veteran Filip Hrgovic at London's O2 Arena on Saturday, August 31, 2026, in a major upset. Despite scoring a knockdown in round two and building a substantial lead, Itauma visibly fatigued, allowing Hrgovic to surge and prompt referee Howard Foster to halt the fight. The victory made Hrgovic Croatia's first-ever world heavyweight champion, claiming the IBF title vacated by Oleksandr Usyk in June, with Tyson Fury publicly reacting to the 'shocking' result.
