    Totally agree. And for the record I like Ajagba and I am a fan of his so i want to see him win and have a great career........... I just don't know if he will be able to overcome enough of his flaws. He seems like a genuinely honest and hard working guy so i want to see the best for him.

    Talent wise, fundamentals, power it’s there. However he can appear lackadaisical at times and can up the tempo. He has a great trainer though in Shields.

    Had Lennox-Ike happened it would have been a great fight, but a hard one for me to watch. Knowing & liking both fighters I wouldn't like to see either lose. That one would really be

    I like Ronnie but the man who would get the best out of Efe was my late great friend Curtis Cokes
    Ike listened to Curtis

    Pity it never happened. I liked both guys so both at their best would have been a classic but I always felt Ike would win in a great fight.
