Comments Thread For: Efe Ajagba Brutally Knocks Out Brian Howard In Third Round

[Marchegiano]

How many fights did Marciano fight until he fought a ranked opponent ?

The NYSAC and NBA didn't publish top ten rankings bud. They published their lists of "outstanding boxers" every four months or about, but often those were just a few names. For example in 1950 when Ezzard was champion the list of outstanding boxers published December 27th had only Joe Louis and Lee Savold on it.

Just fyi, I didn't mean that as a counter point

It's fair on one hand. Marciano hadn't fought a 'ranked' opponent yet by then, but on the other hand Marciano wasn't being published by the NBA as a ranked boxer either.

Conversely, Efe enjoys the 11th rank on both the WBA and the WBC after having fought no one. So again, hope he earns his spot sooner rather than later.

Pretty devastating looking ko but yeah this was a showcase, it's what Howard was there for. I don't see all that much potential in the guy really unless some dramatic improvements are made.

Top rank won`t make 2 of their prospects fighting each other.

Ajagba should fight guys like Dinu.

Anderson would stop Efe , to good of a boxer . Ajagba doesn’t punch enough ,it would be good early though .
