Relatively handsome (like a 5.7 out of 10) and possessing the minimum modicum of acting talent, frankly, the less that's said about Josh Dunford the better.

But what he truly is has yet to be shown. For he is a disciple of Shaq, teaching the art of Shaq Fu to new generations is his true pride and joy. In my restless dreams... He is there.
