    His raw intangibles make up for the flaws. Time is on his side too unlike most other HW prospects.

    Joyce is 35, slow, not a harder hitter, defensively open. Ajagba has some of these issues too but he's not 35. Dubois doesn't have time against him but believe me he is hiding a terrible glass jaw and will end up on a highlight reel soon. There's a reason Warrens protecting him.

    Ajagba looks very vulnerable to me.

    That’s true. I hope he doesn’t improve too much though as I love me a glass cannon

    He looked plodding and stiff before he got dropped badly by...that one guy.

    Yeah, don't think Ajagba will win a World title. Might get a title shot along the line but can't see him being anymore than a fringe contender.

    At least all of his opponents have had winning records. Rare for a heavyweight prospect these days.

    They are both bums. You are blinded by your nationalistic bias. Your comments about Ajagba definitely won't age well :lol:

    I don't think he will ever be close to as good as Sam Peter and I don't think his power is near Sam Peter's power level. Due to Ajagba's height, size, reach, strength, power, and intimidation factor he is probably all wrong for some fighters - even fighters that are better than him, so he may rack up some pretty decent or even good wins but he will lose enough to keep fans from putting too much stock in those wins. One of the stiffest and most robotic boxer's I have ever seen.

    What makes you think he got a glass jaw?
