Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte LIVE RESULTS: Ball RETAINS title against Goodman ahead of huge main event
Frank Warren reckons Moses Itauma is so calm and calculated that even the Planet's Baddest Man might struggle to scare him.
The 73-year-old Hall-of-Famer told SunSport: 'Mike Tyson, in the early days, won 90 per cent of his fights outside the ring.
"The intimidation was unbelievable. I mean, he really intimidated people.
'Most of the American heavyweight guys back then were from the streets but that's what he managed to do with a lot of them.
'There were a rare couple of fighters he couldn't intimidate, like Buster Douglas.
"And he couldn't intimidate Evander Holyfield in any way, shape or form.
'And I think, with Moses, I think you have a hard job to intimidate him."

Iga Swiatek tells cameraman to stop filming her as Wimbledon champion removed clothes on court at Cincinnati Open
Iga Swiatek instructed a camera operator to stop filming her as she prepared to change clothes during her Cincinnati Open semi-final with Elena Rybakina. Swiatek earned a straight sets 7-5, 6-3 victory as the Wimbledon champion set up a final against Italy's Jasmine Paolini. The Polish star won four straight games to fight back from 5-3 down to win the opening set of the match after 45 minutes. After battling back, Swiatek walked over to her bench and looked to cool down amid the heat in Cincinnati. Swiatek was seen removing her hat, before she waved and then wagged her finger at a camera operator. The gestures appeared to be a request to be given space and privacy as she prepared to change. Iga Swiatek requested a camera operator step back as she changed on court after the first set The camera was then pulled way from Swiatek, as the world No 3 prepared to removed her top and put on new clothing ahead of the second second. Swiatek would ultimately claim an impressive victory over Rybakina to reach the final of the WTA 1000 event for the first time. The former World No 1 has reached finals in three of her last four tournaments, which included claiming a maiden Wimbledon title. Along with the Cincinnati Open title, Swiatek could receive a major boost for the US Open if she beats Paolini in Monday night's final. Victory would see Swiatek climb above Coco Gauff to second in the world rankings and would be the second seed for the US Open, behind Aryna Sabalenka. The trio have won the women's singles title over the past three years, with Sabalenka winning last year's tournament. Gauff triumphed in 2023, while Swiatek was crowned champion in 2022.

Pats say WR Stefon Diggs (ACL) is 'ahead of schedule'
August 18 - New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs is "ahead of schedule" in his return from a torn ACL, executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf said Monday. Diggs began training camp last month with no restrictions after receiving medical clearance, but he has yet to appear in a preseason game. "Stefon has done everything we've asked," Wolf said. "He's been attentive in meetings. He's been good on the field. He had two really good practices in Minnesota. He's ahead of schedule, injury-wise." Diggs has been cleared for contact, but Wolf did not say whether the four-time Pro Bowl selection will be active for Thursday's preseason finale against the host New York Giants. Diggs told reporters last week "we'll see" when asked about his availability for the Sept. 7 season opener against the visiting Las Vegas Raiders. Diggs signed a three-year, $63.5 million contract with the Patriots in March. Playing for the Houston Texans last season, he caught 47 passes in eight games before sustaining the season-ending knee injury on Oct. 27 against the Indianapolis Colts. Diggs, 31, has 857 career catches for 10,491 yards and 70 touchdowns in 144 regular-season games (136 starts) with the Minnesota Vikings (2015-19), Buffalo Bills (2020-23) and Texans. He also owns 69 receptions for 909 yards and four touchdowns in 14 postseason games. --Field Level Media
