    I agree but Wlad and Lewis are seen as giants but Moses weighs more than both and as much as they did at their heaviest sans Lewis in his last few fights. He turned pro weighing 248lbs those guys weighed in the 220s and 230's at the start of their careers

    And the likes of Lewis, Wlad, Vitali, Bowe etc. were long and thinner whereas Moses is built like a tank whilst only being a couple of inches shorter

    Of course I have eyes, I have also used them to watch both of their careers and he is not at Tyson level yet and hasn't done half of what Tyson had done at the same age

    I'm still a bit frustrated this fight really didn't tell us much about Moses that we didn't know before. That he's fast and powerful. Whyte just appeared like a practice dummy in there with him.

    I'm not fully buying into the Moses hype until he fights & passes the official and obligatory Brit gatekeeper test.







    Derek Chisora ...



    *Nods*





    Double the offer that they originally offered Derek....

    ;)

    You could be right but I think it would be an interesting fight. Bakole blitzed him but Bakole is a big man who came in with a full camp, unlike his fight against Parker. I wouldn't write off Anderson just yet.

    That really was such an awesome showcase performance. The shot selection was beautiful, the speed was impressive, the sharpness and technique was precocious.

    Combine that with his down to earth nature and this kids hard not to like.

    Also looks legitimately good.

    Hard to take too much away from this performance as Whytes a glass shell, but still.

    Amazing this kids only 20.

    He's a lot shorter at 6'2.5" the 6'4.5" new listing is bogus. Whyte is 6'2'' himself. Itauma still listed at 189 6'2.5" on QP website and others. McKean towered over him, who is 6'6''.

    McKean is genuinely massive and I've seen photos of Moses looking almost as big as 6'6'' HWs and others where he looks a few inches shorter

    They said he was 6'5'' at first but I questioned that but I think he might be a legit 6'4'' or at least 6'3'' if not

    Moses could possibly have the skin and flesh over the terminator hyperalloy endoskeleton, squire...


    Being non magnetic it's not a simple test.
