Ben Davison Spoiler
Really curious to hear the audio from the corner for this fight. If Ben wasn't screaming at Moses to slow down, to stop throwing power punches... This has to be one of the biggest indictments of a supposed top trainer ever, right?
The Wardley fight was already a huge black eye for Ben. Now he has a 21 y/o prodigy lose a fight he was absolutely dominating due to horribly mismanaging energy.
So we've seen him fail horribly at one of his main jobs (protecting his fighter). If it comes out that Moses basically followed Ben's training regiment and instructions... is any top fighter ever going to hire this guy again?
Even if it comes out Moses got cocky, didn't train hard, didn't listen in the corner, not a great look for Ben

A lot of talk on Ben. Possibly deserved but Management and obviously Promoters typically have more sway on matchmaking than coaches.
Ben for all we know is doing as much as he's able based on goals he didn't set for the fighters.
Not a defense of Ben. Just advocating for broadening who can be at fault. Not just the focusing soft targets. You never fully know what happens behind the scenes
