The 20-year-old stayed undefeated, lifting his professional record to 13-0.
Itauma immediately displayed an edge in speed. He put pressure on Whyte and ripped hard shots to his body. Itauma wobbled Whyte with a series of punches and finally dropped him with about 70 seconds left in the round. Whyte appeared to be OK, but he staggered into his corner as he tried to stand up and the referee waved off the fight. Whyte immediately protested the stoppage.
Itauma, a Slovakian-born Englishman, is one of the hottest prospects in boxing. He holds 11 knockouts in 13 pro wins, eight of which ended in the first round.
Whyte, a former WBC interim heavyweight champion, fell to a career 31-4. The 37-year-old Englishman came in riding a three-fight winning streak and hadn't lost since facing Tyson Fury in 2022.
