      • I think Ajagba would struggle with Jones’s power and Smith’s speed! Baby steps, Roy, Baby steps…haha!

    • I agree. Ajagba is powerful when he comes down the middle, but most fighters naturally are. However, working from angles and good lateral movement is what Ajagba needs to improve on. I need to see him step up and fight a decent opponent and I will have my thoughts more complete.
