‌In the excitement over Dowman's achievement, Temisan Williams was invited to appear on talkSPORT, where he was billed as "Dowman's former coach". ‌Robert Dowman wrote on X: "Listening to this guy Temisan Williams claiming he was any part of Max’s journey is a really a sad piece of attempted self promotion. He posted on X: "Following Rob Dowman’s comments today: I have spoken with Rob Dowman and apologised to him and his family. Going forward, I will not be discussing Max Dowman’s development. I wish Rob Dowman and his family nothing but continued success."
