Moses Itauma is identified by some as the future of the heavyweight division and the young fighter has impressed in his short period as a professional so far.
After calling time on his amateur career early, Itauma was focused on the pro game, and he made his debut last January at the age of 18.
Now 14 months into his career, Itauma has registered six stoppages from eight fights, and he’s had great exposure on numerous huge shows.
Being around some of the sport’s biggest names at these events, Itauma has revealed two iconic names who’ve provided some guidance.
"I met Mike Tyson in Saudi Arabia, he gave me a few tips and bits of advice,” said Itauma when speaking to talkSPORT.
"Tyson Fury, to be honest the way he is on cameras and in real life is definitely not the same person. Inside and outside of the ring, he said you need to get a good balance. He said, 'you can't just work, but you have to enjoy what you work for.'"
