It can run them, but the RPM is the limiting factor, how fast the ESC can switch the FETs. Each time you double the poles you lose half your max RPM. If the MMM can spin a 4-pole at 80k max RPM, an 8-pole would be 40k max RPM. Those are just examples I made up, not sure what the real values are. I think the true values can be found in the Castle section somewhere, not sure what thread though.

The way I see it they must test these Tenshock motors using ESCs that are similarly (or maybe even less) capable as the MMM, so I don't see any issues for most people. Most applications will be between 30-40K RPM.
