Tyson Fury has touted Moses Itauma for greatness.

He and Anthony Joshua have also fought.

Having previously trained under the greatest in sparring sessions with Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, he has a bright future ahead of him.

When asked if the Gypsy King strikes harder than Joshua, Itauma had a surprising answer, despite the fact that she thinks the Gypsy King is the superior boxer.

In response, he stated on talkSPORT: “No, but he’s so special. Joshua gave me a rather severe blow.

“I sparred him [Joshua] when I was 16. I only did a couple of rounds, but that was enough.”

When they sparred, Fury gave the young fighter some advice, and he thinks he held his own against the world champion.

Itauma further disclosed that there was an unspoken understanding between the two celebrities and him not to knock each other out.

“I haven’t wobbled,” he continued. We are large men. It just takes one shot for either of us to knock the other person out.

“Let’s say, I go in there and I knock someone out in sparring, they can’t spar for six weeks and I’m going to struggle to get a sparring partner.

“You don’t really learn from knocking people out in sparring.”

Itauma continued: “If I go in there, he’s just tapping and I’m trying to knock him out, I’ll look like a… you know.

“If he goes in there and tries to knock me out, but I’m going easy, it doesn’t make sense. So you have an unspoken agreement.

“You feel out what the first minute is like and you gauge it from there.”
