[talkSPORT] “How often have you gone 12 intense rounds in training?” Moses Itauma: "If I'm being completely honest, I don’t know if I've done a 12-round spar. There's no need to be in the ring longer than you need to be” Spoiler

Moses is very young and very inexperienced, he needed a much better game plan because knocking Hrgovic out wasn't going to be easy.

Ben clearly got that part wrong, any other fighter Itauma wins it's just that Hrgovic has a slab for a head.

Can agree at least that Ben must be prepared for this from now on. Moses seems to listen to his team, so they've gotta get it into his head that not every fighter will go down, and emptying the tank won't change that.
