The prospect was a monster of a fighter in the amateurs, regularly stopping opponents as he won honours at world youth level.
He quickly signed with Frank Warren, whom his brother Karol fights for, and got his pro career underway in January.
Six of his eight wins have come by KO, and he’s looking to become world champion by spring 2025.
He was even touted as the man to beat Mike Tyson’s record of becoming the youngest heavyweight champ of all time, aged 20.
Itauma is a novice in the pro ranks but he has already sparred some of the best in the world, including Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua.
