Timothy Moten (28), the professional boxer who was brought in to replicate Andy Ruiz's style to help Anthony Joshua prepare for their rematch in Saudi Arabia, is now looking to make his presence felt in the world of boxing.

Having quit two full time jobs to be Joshua's sparring partner leading up to the fight, Moten (5-0) was able to gain some tremendous experience working alongside that level of talent that will aid him in his journey to become one of the next big names in the heavyweight scene.
