‘Britain’s Mike Tyson’ Moses Itauma secures brutal first round knockout as teenager extends record to 8-0

Moses Itauma continues to make waves in heavyweight boxing as he blasted out Dan Garber in round one on Friday night.

The 19-year-old has received huge praise of late, with Tyson Fury calling him the 'future of the division'.

National press have also branded Itauma as 'Britain's Mike Tyson', with the teenager extending his winning run once again.

It did not take him long to get the victory.

In the very first round, he trapped Garber in the corner and hit him with a body shot before a right hook to the head.

Itauma then continued to pummel his opponent and won when the fight was stopped with 40 seconds remaining of the first round.

He now sits on a record of 8-0, with the latest victory the sixth he has claimed as a first-round knockout.

Speaking after the bout, Itauma said: "It was good getting back in the ring and I could have got him out of there earlier.

"I trained for a longer fight so I would have fancied three or four rounds.

"I don't enjoy the training but I like the fights, I can get used to this."
