London, UK (March 22, 2024) - Moses Itauma, the rising heavyweight sensation with an undefeated record of 8 wins, including 6 knockouts, kicked off his anticipated year with a dominant performance, dismantling Dan Garber in a first-round stoppage.

The 19-year-old prodigy from Chatham showcased his immense talent and potential as he swiftly dispatched Bradford's Dan Garber in their recent encounter. Trained by Alan Smith at the iBox Gym, Itauma entered the ring with high expectations, aiming to make a statement in what he hopes will be a busy year ahead.

Despite the preparations with his experienced coach, the fight ended abruptly before Itauma could fully showcase his skills. Garber, who boasted a respectable record of 6 wins and 3 losses, found himself overwhelmed by Itauma's speed and precision from the outset.

Itauma wasted no time asserting his dominance, landing a powerful southpaw left hand early in the bout that visibly rocked Garber. The 38-year-old struggled to recover as Itauma relentlessly pressed forward, delivering a barrage of punches with pinpoint accuracy.

Referee Mark Bates closely monitored Garber's condition as Itauma continued to unleash a relentless onslaught. Despite Garber's valiant efforts to remain on his feet, Bates ultimately intervened to halt the fight, recognizing the clear dominance of Itauma.

This victory marks Itauma's fourth consecutive stoppage win, underscoring his growing reputation as a force to be reckoned with in the heavyweight division. With each victory, the challenge for Itauma lies in finding opponents capable of providing meaningful resistance to his formidable skill set.

Looking ahead, Itauma is poised to make his next appearance on the undercard of the highly anticipated undisputed heavyweight title clash between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on May 18. This platform presents an opportunity for Itauma to further elevate his profile and solidify his status as a rising star in the heavyweight ranks.
