Moses Itauma now has an 86% knockout rate in his wins Briton Moses Itauma reinforced his status as one of heavyweight boxing's brightest stars with a destructive fifth-round stoppage of Jermaine Franklin at Manchester's Co-op Live Arena. The 21-year-old methodically broke down the American - who had been brought in as a genuine test - landing crisp combinations and heavy power punches. Franklin climbed off the canvas in the third round, but was knocked out cold in the fifth by a clean uppercut. "The first two rounds I thought it would go the distance.
