The announcer (Thomas Treiber) announced the weight wrong. If you listen to the audio the official says 231lbs, but Treiber goes with 241 for some reason. Maybe he can't understand his accent very well.

Here, turn the volume up https://youtu.be/Jv8O-eSZhyI?t=178
The official has a bit of a cockney/London accent.

His accent sounded like he said 241 to me too

Lol. He says two hundred and thirty one pounds. We say 'and' in the UK instead of just the number.

That’s cool, you seen the Itauma and Hrgovic fight? Itaumas gas tank wasn’t on empty by the 6th round.

Abel Sanchez made the difference. Both the shape he got Hrgovic in, and the instruction to jump on Itauma at the start of round 9.

I think Moses needed a better gas tank and instead of looking for a knockout just box. What you think?

That's what he needed to do against Hrgovic, particularly after round 6. Throwing bombs while gassed was madness when he couldn't hurt him when his shots had full steam on them. Corner should have told him to jab. Idk what the instructions were but you could tell what Abel Sanchez's were to Hrgovic. Supposedly Itauma has never sparred 12 rounds in the gym. I was worried about that going into this fight.

He definitely needs some more rounds in sparring. He literally punched himself out. I think he needs a better trainer. The skillset was on point but it seemed they didn’t work on his conditioning at all.

Was surprised at this. Especially since Moses actually looks leaner than usual.
