Many thought Aussie assassin McKean would be a step too far the 19-year-old.
But the Brit bruiser proved concerns with the match-up were misplaced with yet another brutal first round KO.
He first sent the Aussie crashing to the canvas with a cuffing left hand to the temple.
McKean somehow managed to beat the count, although it wasn’t long before another overhand left landed on his chin.
McKean was spun around by the shot but managed to make it back to his feet, albeit in a badly dazed state.
And he failed to answer the ref’s count, meaning Itauma claimed the biggest scalp of his career.
The stunning stoppage was Itauma’s SEVENTH to have come in the first round.
