Ajose Olusegun....badly promoted?

He's far too overrated by Olu G/

 

Maloney has go a guy with no fans and thats fought nobodys to number 3 with the WBC, if thats not good promoting what is?

 

if he was with Warren he'd be ranked by the WBO and no one else, he'd probably also fight less(see Choi Tsveenpurev) and be in a much worse position that he is now.

Warren only cares about how much a fighter can sell(as most promoters do), talent doesn't enter the equation with him.

 

Excatly...

He is a good fighter but not as good as he thinks he is. He constantly calls out Hatton and Witter but both of these would take him apart.

 

I agree Lee.
I think the likes of Bradley and Holt would beat him let alone Hatton and Witter. He is so overhyped by his management team. If he is so good why is he still not fighting the top tier??? Probably because he brings nothing to the table.

 

He's been promoted well enough to get a WBC ranking, seeing as he's European level at best.

Would last the distance with Bradley IMO, but would probably come up short. He hasn't even got the profile of a Carl Froch, don't know what could be done to rectify that. He has no charisma by the looks of things, but he's a decent fighter. Good fundementals and toughness.

 

I wouldn't say much for his "fundamentals". He rarely even bothers to throw a jab. Often he'll wade his way in with little lateral movement or head movement and throw all kinds of hooks. This appears impressive against a certain level of opponent, because his speed and awkward style gets him off the hook...but against the best he is going to come up way short IMO.

Also, he's been promoted extremely well considering nobody cares about him and he's been wasting his career over the last year or so fighting 6 rounders against cans. He's got a good ranking for that.

 

Godfather or Padrone
1st of all Bradley is a better fighter than Witter which is a fact and would beat Witter again if they fought. Not sure Hatton can beat Bradley either. Once you cut away the crap and hype Bradley is aserious operator so beating him is actually more impressive than beating Witter. I have studied Witter for many years and my opinion of him is not as high as yours. Witter is a contest we could and should have had by now but good luck to him for avoidance.

 

Start talking about fights that can be made then Olu, rather than constantly blaming others for avoiding Ajose. Witter won't ( you say ) , Hatton is having 3 and out so he won't, after McCloskey who will Ajose be chasing ?

 

I didn't say that Witter was a better fighter than Bradley. Did I state I thought the world of Witter?? No.
I simply stated that the fighters listed would beat Ajose. Bradley, Witter, Hatton, Holt would all beat Ajose, simply as that. Thats my opinion. I dont rate Ajose and dont see him as a top level operator, again my opinion. Whatever you think of Witter he has fought at a much much higher level and is the former WBC champ, European, British title holder. Who has Ajose beaten? What title does he have??
