    The Ring has Gassiev, Bakole and Torrez in the top ten, not Chisora, Charlie Parker, and Fury.

    Would Itauma seriously beat Ajagba? The same Itauma who hasn't fought anyone in the top 20 yet, and postponed a fight with Jermain Franklin?

    It wouldn't surprise me if Ajagba chinned him.

    Perhaps Zhang if he goes to the body early and often. And maaaybe Chisora due to size and age. Other then those 2, no

    He just failed a drugs test and got knocked out. He’s all the way out of the game.

    I think Ajagba would beat Chisora out of that list and that is it. Maybe Gassiev, Bakole, and Torrez from the Ring's.

    His performance against an aging Martin wasn't particularly impressive. It is okay to stalk your opponent looking for the KO, but he got hit a lot in doing so the other night.

    The commentators were trying to dismiss his loss to Sanchez, which in fairness was 5 years ago, but that seems like the perfect next opponent for him.

    But Ajagba hasn't proven it though.

    What has Ajagba done by beating a badly faded Charles Martin??!!

    I don't even give Ajagba much of a puncher's chance against Chisora or Dubois. If we're talking about prime Wilder than thats a different story.

    Zhang can only fight on first gear obviously but Ajagba isn't Joseph Parker who can actually box well and last all fight.

    For me? Ajagba just hasn't proven himself yet.

    I've been critical of Ajagba but I'd actually favour Ajagba over Gassiev.

    If Itauma hadn't beaten a seasoned vet in Dillian Whyte I'd agree.

    He loses to all of them, including Chisora

    It's clear Ajagba's ceiling is 11-15 at best.

    Has got a decentish shot at like 7 of them. Could realistically go .500. Ajagba should have 3.

    However I don't think this is the "real top 10". I do not believe Wardley, Zhang, Chisora are top 10 HWs. Fury, Parker and Itauma being top 10 is questionable.

    Luckily he won’t need to worry about facing actual top 10 fighters being that he’s with Zuffa

    Loses to everyone other than Chisora and Zhang.

    Would not be a given against Chisora if he is up for it. But Zhang is so old now, he is not really top 10 anymore.
