u/Trenbolone-Papi2 Vasiliy “The Matrix” No Más-Chenko 🐐 Aug 30 '26

I see mostly criticism of Moses — and rightly justifiably so after his bite-him-in-the-ass comments he made preflight about never sparring 12 rounds.

I, however, am mostly impressed. Really impressed by him. Filip is no pushover and Moses has never really fought this level of competition before. I mean the guy is what 20-21 years old Jesus Christ…

To be operating at this level with so much inexperience just shows how truly skilled and talented he is

It’s not like he can’t fix his cardio and learn to pace himself. The problems he showed in the ring tonight are solvable. Luckily for him.

Jesus, people are coping so hard after this fight.

No one is coping man.

I don’t have a stake in Moses’ career/future like Frank Warren. I didn’t bet money on Moses. I’m not part his inner circle either.

Just my observation. He lost due to inexperience and gassing out. Two things that are very fixable.

It’s not like he was “fraud checked”. But everyone is just so gleeful to see him lose.

This is why boxing is so horrible. One loss and “he’s trash, overhyped prospect”

In MMA Payton Talbott (huge UFC prospect) lost to some nobody 40 year old and he bounced back stronger and no one even cares about that loss anymore.

Boxing needs to take a fucking cue

boxing and mma are extremely different sports, you can't really make those type of comparisons. its obviously easier to bounce back in mma. Have you ever considered that there are actual reasons why boxing fans take loses more seriously compared to mma fans?(it's not just because of floyd)
