British Heavyweight Itauma Spotted Training at Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas

British heavyweight Moses Itauma was spotted training at Floyd Mayweather Jnr’s gym in Las Vegas as he prepares to return to the ring. The footage appeared in a video posted by American prospect Zaquin Moses, in which Itauma was seen hitting the heavy bag alongside the American at the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas.

Moses Itauma’s promoter indicated that the heavyweight is expected to return to the ring in January 2027.

Moses Itauma suffered his first professional loss in August when he faced Filip Hrgovic for the vacant IBF title. The 21-year-old British heavyweight had dropped Hrgovic in the second round of the fight. Itauma began to tire as the bout progressed, and Hrgovic stopped him on his feet in the ninth round.

The fight against Hrgovic was Itauma’s attempt to become the youngest heavyweight champion since Mike Tyson.

Itauma’s trainer Ben Davison faced scrutiny following world title defeats involving fellow heavyweights Anthony Joshua and Fabio Wardley.

Itauma defended his relationship with Davison and the rest of his training team in an interview with The Stomping Ground. “I’ve had conversations with Ben [Davison],” Itauma said. “Me, Ben Davison, Lee Wylie and Barry Smith’s relationship is good. We’ve got a good, healthy relationship. So if somebody else wants to talk, I don’t know what they’re trying to get at. And it’s mad because it’s only after a loss.”

Shakur Stevenson was seen training in the background of the video showing Itauma at the Mayweather Boxing Club.
