That was flat out some of the gutsiest **** I've ever seen. He ate huge bombs all night long by one of the hardest hitters P4P and didn't crumble for 10 rounds. Matthysse even hit him when he was defenceless after the ref ordered a break and yet he continued to fight and didn't attempt to pull a quitjob in hope of getting a DQ win.
Love the chin!! His chin is utterly ridiculous. Khan would die trying to break Ajose's chin. Khan's chin would be crushed by Lucas even worse.
Showed tremendous amount of heart he didnt came in there to lay down easily, he made Lucas work for the win can see him causing some upsets in the future.
Yeah his durability was downright awe inspiring. I didn't really care for the guy's demeanor during the ring walk and I'm a huge Lucas fan but Ajose earned my respect big time. He'd beat most of the guys at 140 if that beating doesn't ruin him (a big if since he took vicious punishment to head and body and he's in his thirties.)
haven't seen it yet, if you can take lucas's bombs for a long period then i guess you have serious heart and chin
Matthysse is an ANIMAL! if this loss doesn't break him, he will do big things in the division. impressive stuff.
Ajose is a ****ing beast and I would love to see him fight Garcia or Khan or Bradley. It was very inspiring see him fight.
Club fighter with a chin nothing more, that is not talent . A performance is something to be proud of , being hit with over 40% of head punches is a lack of quality. Sorry if it sounds bitter , but i just dont think either is elite. Would lose to see the winner vs JMM , that would be a clinic.
Ajose destroys Khan. But Khan is an irrelevant club fighter with only nationalist fans--why bring him up? Anyway, Ajose was looking more like Pineapple-head Briggs every round. I just wanted it to end, for his sake.
Ajose is an excellent fighter but he should work on slipping punches and if he gets that part down, he will be a force at 140. If he could've slipped half the punches Matthysse threw it would have been a different outcome. Matthysse didn't outfight or outbox him, he simply outpowered him. Ajose gets big props from me.:bbb
