Moses Itauma wants to beat the record for the youngest heavyweight world champion which is 20<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

British heavyweight prospect Moses Itauma needed only 35 seconds to stop Ramon Ibarra in his second professional fight in Telford.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The 18-year-old wants to become the youngest world heavyweight champion in history, a record currently held by Mike Tyson.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Itauma has spent less than a minute in the ring during his fledgling career.<\/span><\/p>\n

In January, the Englishman knocked out Czech Republic fighter Marcel Bode in 23 seconds on his pro debut.<\/span><\/p>\n

Heavyweight legend Tyson was 20 years old when he won his first world title in 1986.<\/span><\/p>\n

Itauma will return to the ring on 15 April when he appears on the undercard of Joe Joyce’s heavyweight fight against China’s Zhilei Zhang.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the main event at the Telford International Centre, Nathan Heaney beat fellow Englishman Jack Flatley to claim the vacant WBA Continental middleweight title.<\/span><\/p>\n

After 10 fast-paced rounds, all three judges scored it 99-91, 97-93, 97-93 in Stoke-born Heaney’s favour.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 33-year-old remains unbeaten with a second win in a row over Flatley, and extends his record to 16 wins.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
