Unbeaten Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk has been linked to a host of potential opponents for his 2026 comeback. British boxing legend Carl Froch has a strong opinion on who Usyk should face next. After Usyk's impressive victory over Daniel Dubois in July, some expected him to retire, but the 41-year-old plans to keep fighting until then and even open a sports academy. He's also called out WBC champion Deontay Wilder, but a fight with him hasn't been confirmed. Andy Ruiz Jr. and Agit Kabayel are in the running, but Froch believes Usyk should face the 21-year-old Moses Itauma, the hottest prospect in the division. Froch says, 'I'd love to see a young, dynamic fighter like Moses Itauma against Usyk. It's a chance for Itauma to prove himself.' However, Itauma's upcoming fight with Jermaine Franklin Jr. was postponed due to an injury. This leaves Usyk without an opponent, and the boxing world awaits his next move.
