Buatsi had taken the time to warm up, but once around him, he crossed Conroy like a whirlwind, validating the considerable hype surrounding his future.
Buatsi has the necessary ingredients to become a legitimate star of the game, as evidenced by his gray and silver shorts with a pink border.

"The road ahead is still long, but I'm grateful to everyone. I have to thank Eddie [Hearn] also, who guided my career. "

"He's so composed and I'm very excited about him and he will have to be very talented because it's a dangerous division."
