His next opponent is Chris Thomas, an unknown 343rd boxer in the world according to Boxrec, a very small heavyweight, it seems that Gurgen Hovhannisyan is poorly managed...
No and for that matter whats the hold up with Teremoana and Jalolov? Didn't Anthony Joshua get moved along quite fast? Its like only Moses Itauma is being moved along at all in some weird British conspiracy to selectively develop talent.
Teremoana has fought 3 times this year... how fast do you want him to go? Itauma has only fought once so far, and has a fight with Whyte lined up.
This is pretty normal for fighters without a large profile or backing. They try to get them at least to double digits wins on easy fights before taking a step up. And even then its small step ups to try and build them a name and profile otherwise they will have trouble securing better fights because they can't bring enough money to the table to justify the risk against more decent opponents. Compared to someone like Anthony Joshua who was the UK's darling after winning the gold medal at the 2012 Olympics, he had a huge profile for an amateur boxer in a country like UK which is big on boxing and doesn't mind spending money on it.
