DILLIAN WHYTE ordered Moses Itauma to "drop the tough guy act" as they met outside the ring on Thursday night.<br /><br />The 37-year-old Brixton Body Snatcher went face-to-face with his Saturday night Riyadh rival at the final press conference.<br /><br />And the freakishly skilled and chilled 20-year-old dared to tell the dangerous veteran that he wanted his designer shades off so he could see the windows to his soul.<br /><br />As the pair stood just inches apart, Itauma said: “Take off the glasses and show me those eyes.<br /><br />“I want to see if they're a sheep's eyes or a wolf's”.<br /><br />And Whyte, who howls before his ACDC theme-tuned ring walk, warned the Kent starlet that he shouldn't bark if he doesn't want to get bit.<br /><br />The veteran, who has been tipped to quit if he loses, growled: “What you got to see my eyes for? Forget all that, man.<br /><br />“Don't try to act like the tough guy, bro, be relaxed.<br /><br />“Just be nice and cool. We can put our hands on each other on Saturday.<br /><br />“Don't try to act the tough guy when we're being nice.”<br /><br />But fearless Itauma, ahead of just his 13th pro bout, purred back: “I'm not trying to act the tough guy.”<br /><br />The 12-0 protege's sheep reference came after he quoted Robert Greene's 2000 international bestseller The 48 Laws of Power, which ruthlessly advises readers how to get to the top.<br /><br />Itauma, who has addressed those who want to see him get hit on Saturday, said: “I think there’s a rule in The 48 Laws of Power where you play a sheep to catch a wolf.<br /><br />“I feel like that’s what Dillian Whyte’s doing. If he is,[or if he isn’t, it doesn’t matter. I’m going to bring the heat Saturday night. <br /><br />“We’re heavyweights, and a fight can end at any point. I’m not delusional. I know what threat Dillian Whyte poses. I’m not overlooking him. I’m taking this man seriously."
