Comments Thread For: Efe Ajagba Gearing Up For His PPV Showcase Against Sanchez on Fury-Wilder

[Bronx2245]

Hope so!

im actually surprised how good this one is. The main event is a big fight in its own right, so I’m surprised they stacked the undercard. Especially fights like Ajagba v Sanchez at this stage of their career.

Helenius v Kownacki rematch should be fun too

Berlanga with a decent step up in level too.

Jared Anderson v an undefeated Russian

I hope Kudratillo Abdukakhorov fights a live dog @ 147 on the Crawford vs. Porter card! He's been holding that IBF #1 Spot forever, and done nothing! I would like to see the return of Jose Ramirez on the card too, especially if he 's moving to 147!

Sanchez has a win over dawejko who is an experienced journeyman

Efe had an ok against Demirezen, wallisch, mansour and cojanu

Neither has been in with top competition as you say and this fight will be the best win so far for either but Efe has a better resume upto this point

Like I said who is better then Ajagba that Sanchez fought and vice versa ? Ajagba isn’t a journeyman and Sanchez is a top 15 fighter in his prime . Those guys you listed aren’t top competition.

I hear he flattened fury in sparring while Anderson tuned the traveller up

[Robbie Barrett]

Isn't this the guy that knocked Fury out in sparring?

Efe is too tall for dirty Sanchez to wrap his arm around his head and walk him into a punch. He throws a wide left designed to go around the back of the neck. Then the opponent gets led and cant escape the right. Its not as obvious a tactic as a Lennox Lewis hold the back of the head as it just looks like a missed haymaker. Thats why my pick is Efe.

I have to go with Frank.

[SN!PER]

I figure Frank will take an early lead due to speed advantage, but sooner or later Efe will crack him with body shots and break him down.

I was interested to read that an opponent left the ring before the opening bell, what was that about ☺️

He forgot he left the oven on.
No actually he crapped his undies. Seriously.

Seeing some recent footage of Sanchez, the difference in speed and movement is very noticeable. Efe is a slow starter, but he needs to break that bad habit and jump on Sanchez immediately and hurt him, ideally within the first 3 rounds. The longer this goes on, the worse it will look for him. Even if the rounds are close, Frank's speed and counters are going to make Efe look awful to the judges. He might have trouble landing cleanly on the Cuban and should target his body immediately from the opening bell.
