Well done to the guy for getting this gig. Chefs typically don't know much about nutrition, but he's obviously doing a good enough job for now. I was a chef 17 years before doing a degree in Nutrition so he's got my dream job. Fair play to him

[@leilasuley]

Plug yourself 😜

[@user-zy9yg2eu5t]

Nobody asked for your CV "Nigel" .

[@samclasper2435]

He probably has a nutritionist over seeing things aswell. Would you rather a nutritionist with no practical experience cook your meals everyday or a Michelin trained chef?

[@DonGorgon78]

@@leilasuley 😉why not? You never know

[@DonGorgon78]

@@samclasper2435 That depends. Why can't you be both? He wasn't exactly making a Michelin star meal. He said this was the first time he was having to do everything himself. So no nutritionist this time around

[@leilasuley]

What a sweet guy. Very kind and polite. His cooking looked 🤤

[@FIHRR-bd8uy]

[@MetalboxJ]

Big up matchroom boxing. Fantastic behind the scenes content . 🤝🤝

[@Jovan697]

Very insightful! You can tell the chef has a real passion for food and nutrition, would love to see more content like this in the future, find it so interesting. Hope the chef goes far and works with other athletes in the future!

[@LeadHandMedia]

*A.Joshua vs F.Ngannou* *D.Wilder vs Dillian Whyte or Hughie Fury* *Jared Anderson vs Daniel Dubois* *Zheli Zhang vs Frank Sanchez is what we need* 🇸🇦

No Wild Boar meat for AJ unlike Fury

African know about aromat and that jollof sauce. Respect to the chef for learning it 😂

I’ve worked with with Wes being a chef myself and he’s a very genuine and good guy, congrats on the job man 🎉🙌🏽

Organic foods are expensive. If we had AJ's money, we would eat organic too.

non-stick cookware is toxic. please cook with stainless steel, carbon steel, or cast iron.

[@christiantaylor1109]

he's got a whole pile of super market out off season food there

[@connorw808]

Is the chef sat down ?

[@ssammysam]

The Aromat you use is the fake one ......The authentic Aromat spice blend used by Africans is by Knorr not Tropical Sun as you used in the video.......Good video btw !!!

[@berryshmelly4928]

I knew a guy who used to shop at my WFM when AJ was in Dallas, he said he was AJ's personal chef and he looked nothing like this guy. This guy's way more sexy for the camera I guess.

[@lovseaexploration]

gotta get a stone chopping board mate

[@erbeypineda4127]

Team Ngannou!

[@wickywills]

"The meat is there just for flavour" - huh?? The meat (especially grass fed) has more nutrients than any of the carbs there, by a huge margin. Nice guy, but clearly he has a lot to learn.

[@adillambat]

Jeez man like Aaron Lennon.

[@tyemust4399]

Why raw egg shake ?

I don't think using a plastic cutting board is very healthy though, use a wooden one

Ahhh I'm sure he's fuming

[@Stannyhand]

“High carbs so he can get all his nutrients. The meat is there just for flavour and taste” That meat has more nutrients in it than all the veg there you fool.

[@K_j_M]

ikr... The micro nutrient profile of meat is insane

[@MetalboxJ]

The meat has more nutrients but not necessarily carbs. He knows what he's doing who are you to call him a fool ? You sad hating pillock.

[@rossj2410]

@@MetalboxJ the worlds full of know it alls unfortunately 🙄

[@jacobpeel8478]

He probably meant that the macronutrients of the carbs are more relevant in this situation, where he is fueling up for athletic performance rather than recovery where the meat would be important.

[@tombuckton2335]

I’m pretty sure he knows a lot more about this subject than you smartass 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

This is for AJ 's team, and anyone who wants to stay healthy. Non-stick pans are poisonous and toxic simple as. All the organic produce in the world doesn't help the fact you're cooking in a frying pan with one of the most toxic man-made poisons non to man. Please see the film 'Dark waters', a true story ) for all the info you'll need to back up what i'm saying about the man-made 8 carbon chain more commonly known as Teflon. Nasty shit trust me. You'll see why it's a waste of time having organic produce and then cooking a Teflon pan.

[@xaviermcknight1510]

Also the meat starch and dairy is a no go ❌❌ luckily the body heals itself and trust to sustain its alkalinity

[@Tricky181]

Wow that guy is as dull as the dish water he’ll be washing AJs pots in

[@gibgun]

When hiring for a chef, they should always make sure they come across well on a 7 minute KZbin video - who cares about their cooking?
