Jeez, was Itauma stoned out of his mind, here?

Yeah, he barely turned 21 a week ago. Good catch.

 

I think he's been smokin' dope in this interview.

 

He’s as dumb as rocks and comes across as having a bit of a chip on his shoulder. He’s had a right sook about the perceived reaction to the Whyte fight which is just odd in my opinion.

I don’t know if it’s CTE or whether he’s stoned…my feeling is that he’s trying to play relaxed but not really pulling it off.

 

Just woke up, like literally just? I’m not the sharpest chisel in the set but I’d like to think im at least 100 x more coherent than this within 2 mins of waking, let alone up & dressed, was kuugs waiting at his bedside?

 

I honestly don’t know mate, I hope not!
As I posted earlier I think this is his way of presenting himself as chilled/laidback & unflappable but it’s not really working out the way they’d hoped imo

 

I can already hear it in a British commentators voice

"Where there's smoke there's fire and also where theres smoke theres Moses Itauma"

 

Not sure if you are joking or not. Smoking pot is opposite of a serious accusation its completely normal these days. If he is a smoker that's a bad sign for him as a serious athlete though.

 

He put all his character points into strength and left speech and intelligence on 1.

 

Early days but the signs are pointing towards him being the goods. Sparring world rated guys at 16. The way he dealt with whyte and dempsey mckean is seriously good progress for a 20 year old at the time. Popping them both off in a round each.

Still questions to be answered. Motivation being one of them. But the signs are pointing towards him being a big player down the line.

 

This makes sense, definitely. When I was his age, I knew people who tried desperately to give off an aura of coolness or of being collected and calculated, but they just ended up coming across as confused and slow, which is exactly what Moses is doing here. He is still young and immature, so there could definitely be an element of that.

 

I think we forget hes 10 years younger then most fighters in his position. Totally different stage of his life.

Not that every 21 year old is like this but theres a lot of pot junkies at that age whose whole life revolves around cannabis.
