    I hope he's just stoned, here. I can't even understand him. I love the part where he can't remember the WBC.

    And at 653 you can see from the reflection in the glass that he stops to check out lady.

    Classic.

    The charisma of a young Ali he has.

    I sincerely hope Itauma doesn’t become the face of the heavyweight division post-Usyk, zero charisma and probably not much higher than zero IQ

    It's a good thing his opponents have never brought anything remotely challenging to the table that forces him to adjust, because I highly doubt he's capable of it.:sisi1

    Frank needs to put him through some sort of marketing process. I'm not one to talk, but Moses looks like a tramp. He needs to ditch the 'fro, his hairline is going rapido, and at least trim the tramp beard back too. Taking some sort of public speaking course wouldn't go amiss either.
    With some effort on the non-boxing side, he could be the next AJ.

    There was a comment after the Balogun fight that was a bit concerning, namely that he couldn't remember any of it; it could just have been he was fighting in a stream of consciousness sort of thing, or it could have been Balogun hit him harder than we all assumed and he genuinely couldn't remember the fight. Similarly this interview could be nothing to worry about as he is stoned off his nut, or there could be more to his obviously impaired neurological state here. Even if it's the former, you would hope his handlers would stop him appearing on camera as high as the International Space Station.

    It kinda worked with Dubois. hardly ever spoke before but then someone obviously told him to be more confrontational an put himself forward more. It was a bit cringy seeing him trash talking with Joshua an confronting Usyk in the ring demanding a matchup but it kinda did work as it brought more attention to himself.

    ...but a slow brain. So when someone's timing neutralizes his speed advantage, he's ****ed.

    By the time he peaks there won't be much depth in the heavyweight division anyway, he will dominate.

    He won't make it to top of anything to dominate.

    I think he goes for that sort of chilled/doing my own thing unflappable sort of vibe thinking it’s cool but it’s not really working, he’s coming across as half baked and/or punch drunk already, wouldn’t be suprised if he turns out to be the real deal though, similarly wouldn’t be surprised if he was found out early either that’s the beauty of the heavyweight hype game I suppose

    I apologise in advance for the upcoming cringe sychopantic overhyping of this fella from our vomit inducing media & gullible Brit casuals when he gets sparked out 3 years down the line

    I think he can’t remember any of his fights is cos they have all been too easy for him. Beating up these no hopers in a round or two every time there nothing that’s really memorable in any of them that make any one of them stand out from the others
