How to watch Itauma v Whyte fight for free on DAZN through your TV Moses Itauma had his debut fight just over two years ago, and now the fight of his life awaits in Riyadh. Dillian Whyte and Moses Itauma. (Image: (Photo by)) Twenty-year-old prodigy Moses Itauma faces his sternest test yet against Dillian 'The Body Snatcher' Whyte. It's the new generation against a heavyweight veteran in Saudi Arabia, with Whyte looking to prove he's still got it. For Itauma, it will be an opportunity to truly announce himself on the world stage against a massive name.

He's the current WBO Intercontinental and WBA International champion and will be coming up against a former world title challenger in Whyte. Last time out in the ring, Itauma defeated Mike Balogun via second round stoppage. Whyte previously held the WBC Interim and Silver title and famously locked horns with Tyson Fury for the full world championship at Wembley Stadium in London in 2022. Itauma is seen as the future of heavyweight boxing, and at just 20-years-old, he is one of the youngest fighters in the division. He only transitioned to professional boxing in 2023, so his career is very much in its infancy. Here's everything you need to know about the fight. What time is Itauma v Whyte?

Luke Littler overcomes ‘shaky start' to win New Zealand Darts Masters title
Luke Littler produced a brilliant display to beat Luke Humphries and claim the New Zealand Darts Masters title. The 18-year-old followed up his victory in Australia last weekend by averaging more than 115 in an 8-4 final success over defending champion Humphries in Auckland. Advertisement 'It felt very much the same as last week,' said the teenager on LITTLER GOES BACK-TO-BACK! ☢️🏆 THAT IS ASTONISHING! Luke Littler averages 115 to defeat Luke Humphries 8-4 and clinch the SkyCity New Zealand Darts Masters title! 📺 #NZMasters | Final — PDC Darts (@OfficialPDC) August 16, 2025 'I had a shaky start in my opening game but, once you come into finals night, you know you have to switch it on, and that's what I did again tonight. 'I felt unbeatable up there. The crowd was brilliant and the venue was incredible – it felt like a Premier League night – and I'm very happy to lift another title. 'I'm playing very well at the moment, I'm enjoying my darts, and hopefully I can keep this winning streak going.' Advertisement Earlier, Littler had beaten Mike De Decker 6-2 and Gerwyn Price 7-2, while Humphries reached the final with a 6-2 success against Damon Heta before seeing off Chris Dobey 7-4. Littler always looked in control against Humphries, opening up an early 3-0 lead before extending his cushion to 6-2. Humphries reduced the deficit to two legs but Littler finished in style with successive 11-darters. 'I played pretty well today but when you run into a 115 average there's not much you can do,' said Humphries. Advertisement 'I think if I'd won that sixth leg it might have given me a glimmer of hope but the better player won for sure. 'When Luke's on it, he's untouchable. I held in there and I gave it my best but he was just too good in the end.'

How much has Ted Scott earned this year? Scottie Scheffler's caddie's incredible 2025 pay revealed
While Scottie Scheffler continues to dominate the fairways in 2025, it's now been revealed that his caddie Ted Scott has raked in nearly $1.5million along the way. Scheffler, 29, has cemented his place as the undisputed World No.1 with four tour wins already this season - including a fourth Major title at the Open Championship. Much of that success has come with Ted Scott by his side. The veteran caddie, who previously worked with Bubba Watson, joined Scheffler's team in 2021. Since then, the pair have formed one of the most effective partnerships in the modern game and it's proving to pay dividends for both men. GolfMonthly have now estimated - based on the standard PGA Tour arrangements for caddies - that Scott is believed to have pocketed $1.4million this year alone. Caddies are typically entitled to 10 per cent of the winner's cheque, and between 5 to 7 per cent for high finishes throughout the year. This year, things started strongly with Scheffler picking up more than $1.8 million in February thanks to two top-10 finishes and a T25. That early-season run likely earned Scott around $125,000 in bonus pay before the year had really even got going. March saw a a runner-up finish at the Houston Open and two more results inside the top 20. That three-tournament stretch probably netted Scott an extra $93,000. Between tournaments seven and nine of the season, the World No.1 landed two more top-10s and piled up $3.37 million in prize money. For Scott, that likely translated to a further $290,000 in earnings. Scheffler finally broke through with his first win of the year at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson in May. That victory lit the fuse for a run of form that saw him win three times in four starts, including a stunning triumph at the PGA Championship for his third Major title and a $3.42 million payday. He followed it with another win at the Memorial Tournament, where he took home $4 million and between those three victories, Scott is estimated to have collected a $742,000 cut of the spoils. Three more top-10 finishes in the same period saw Scheffler bank around $1.7 million, likely adding another $121,000 or so to Scott's growing total. By the end of June, Scott is believed to have earned $1.4million alongside Scheffler. However, Scheffler will be without his caddie Ted Scott when he tees it up at this week's BMW Championship in a huge blow for golf's world No 1. Scott has been a mainstay in Scheffler's professional career for the past four years, but a family emergency last weekend saw him rush back to his home in Louisiana. The change in circumstance led to Scheffler turning to a chaplain and close friend to help him out with the final round of the FedEx St Jude on Sunday, and now it'll be all change again this week. The recent Open champion and four-time major winner will have Mike Cromie on his bag instead, as he continues his foray into the FedEx Cup playoffs. Scott's personal matter has so far not yet been disclosed, but it is expected Scheffler will field questions about his close friend's absence as the week progresses.
