'Find out about myself!' - Moses Itauma ready to discover new things in Dillian Whyte clash

Moses Itauma says he is ready to "find out" new things about himself in his bout with Dillian Whyte, with the WBO #1 contender keen to test his limits underneath the bright lights.

The Briton faces his fellow countryman at Riyadh's ANB Arena on Saturday, live on DAZN Pay-Per View, in a bout that could have major ramifications for the heavyweight division.

Widely tipped as one of the brightest stars of the future, Itauma is already in a leading position for a world title shot in the near future, and enters as the bookmakers' favourite.

Speaking at Tuesday's Grand Arrivals, the twenty-year-old admitted his latest test would give him a chance to further understand his mettle when the heat is on however.

"It's a long fight week, but I'm here, I'm well," he said. "I can't complain. Today, I woke up around eleven, had a boxing session, and now we're here.

"Dillian has boxed 230 rounds more than I have. That brings a lot of experience. He said it himself that I'm a young guy but I've had loads of experience.

"As much as [everybody] wants to find out about me, I'm going into this fight to find out about myself. I've proved in my sparring what I'm capable of

"But I don't know what I'm capable of under the bright lights. Whether it's the chin, the engine - when you guys find out, I'm going to find out.

"I've never listened to opinions, because [they] don't have to throw the punches for me. My job is to do the boxing."
