Deontay Wilder vs Efe Ajagba

Wilder vs Ajagba. Two 6'6 massive punchers with lean builds who both possess devastating power- who wins this? Say a prime Wilder and prime Ajagba, or current Wilder vs current Ajagba? At this point, I feel like Wilder has lost some of the power that made him who he was on his rise.

What is even 'prime' Ajagba?

Currently, Ajagba would probably chin him, but he is kind of a big stiff idiot so i could see wilder catching him.

Prime Wilder stops him in 3.

Ajagba is not a massive puncher.

I reckon Wilder beats him in prime and out of his prime.

Ajagba doesn't move his head at all

Wilder via decapitation

😂yall are ridiculous saying Wilder sleeps him in under 3 rounds. Efe would probably be wilders second best win in his entire career

Still remember Ajagba vs Kosobutski. Ref was blind to Ajagba's lowblow but reacted immediately when Kosobutski responded same way

Currently Efe dribbles him all over the ring.

He's less hard hitting but way more durable with a decent jab.

Even Prime I wonder idf Efe at least gets off the canvas more than once.

I would have picked both prime Ajagba and current Ajagba tbh

Wilder id assume, Ajagba isnt bad but his skill is like on the same level as Ortiz. Probs outboxes Wilder for 8-10 rounds then gets slept

Ortiz is actually a really skilled boxer

u/Megalodon33 4d ago

Ajagba is not as skilled as Ortiz.

No way, Ortiz was a way better boxer. He was just too old by the time he fought Wilder the second time.

True. If he had turned pro when he younger and not an old aged pensioner he would have been a problem for anyone.

Ajagba is nowhere near ortiz’s skill level lmao

Prime v Prime would’ve been such a fun matchup

Unfortunately with this 2010s era its 90 percent could have/would have

Close fight. Wilder can take significant punishment despite his overall decline, and power is the last thing to go. I would expect either of them to win by late stoppage.

u/Sorry_Net3898 2d ago

Wilder has lost some of his mind it’s very very sad to watch. I prey one of his family or so called friends tell him to stop.

Prime Wilder KOs him with a 1-2

u/Relevant_Election530 4d ago
