[@EdgarHernandez-uu4iw]

What are your thoughts on Ajaba?

[@alfaabdullahi6543]

@@EdgarHernandez-uu4iw Ajaba too is a great boxer,but the problem with him is that he's very slow and he has a weak chin.

[@IDWJIMADE]

This guy can only be great. He is hungry and willing to work for it. Most importantly he trusts his trainer Ronnie Shields (A. Ward - V. Hunter like). I remember hearing A Ward respond to a journalist one day " Virgil said I can win be a heavyweight champ so will I be" that literally killed me. That's what trust sounds like. I also remember Virgil telling Ward in the corner after being knocked down by The Krusher " you know what you are here for. Stand up, use your jab and get inside for body punch". And the fight went berserk after that. Today Efe said "Ronnie is the Master in this game. He said that he sees something special in me. He said I will be the champion". I like that. TRUST IS EVERYTHING.

[@joshshields9155]

Isn't efe ajagba also trained by ronnie shields? Which makes sense because they throw their right hand similar

[@IDWJIMADE]

@@joshshields9155 no. Ajaba was hard to train.

[@BryceLarenz]

This fight was more entertaining than the main event.

[@eliteboxfitness]

The jab has improved . Active accurate and heavy . Great post fight interview always believed in himself . Trained at elitebox with us in the past

[@jamjam9564]

The best part about this fight was the post-fight interview. You can see the passion and he’s also coachable. He’s trusting of his trainer and his words. My coaches used to tell me “It’s only a bad play if the ones who are supposed to execute it, don’t believe it work.” He believes what the guy told him and executed it to perfection! Dude going to be the truth.

[@BlackLightPsych6249]

Yep! Why the Fu¢& did he start counting after the last knock down?. Ref standards are dropping imo

[@terrytico4009]

The ref was right to let it continue since the downed fighter followed the instructions from the ref. You can't stop a fight just because someone is hurt, there has to be undeniable impairment for that to occur. The ref did a very good job by allowing it to continue until after the 2nd knockdown.
