    Yet Ajaba has impressed you?

    He is absolutely useless bar power

    Lethal Power might be enough. He seems to me someone fighting well within his capabilities. I think there is a lot more there to be honest.

    Sanchez is a far better boxer, thats not saying much as Ajaba is rotten

    Sanchez' big issue is he continues to resort to the same previously used strategies when he struggles to get a fighter out of the ring

    Ajagba is stiff, poor defence, plodding foot work and the head movement of a sloth

    Its a 50/50 due to Frank's flaws and Efes power being real

    Wasn't Ajagba one of the people in Furys camp that tested positive for covid?

    Based on the eyetest Sanchez looks better, he's nowhere near as powerful but he's a lot quicker and I'd place a bet he'd tee off on Ajagbas slow ass all night. Wouldn't suprise me if Ajagba wins but he hasn't impressed me at all

    They all tested positive, and then magically none of them were. There were like 11 or 13, then minutes later there were two, then a day later everyone was running around apparently fine.

    I gave them all the benefit of the doubt initially, and was concerned for their health ... but, as someone said on Twitter ... I'm about one more Tyson Fury screw-up away from believing "Glovegate" was real. (LOL)

    I've pretty much had it with all the delays.

    That's what I'm thinking, neither one has really impressed but the big difference between the two is power. Not that Sanchez couldn't outbox him and take a win but while a better boxer than Ajagba I don't think he's good enough to avoid his power the whole fight. And you are right,,Sanchez is well within his capabilities or at least you, me and Ajagba's camp thinks so.

    Sanchez should be the favourite. He has power, quick hands and can counter. Ajagba is almost as slow as Joe Joyce with terrible defence and suspect chin.

    Mystic Olu strikes again. Looks like Efe's superior warrior heritage failed him.
