As Efe Ajagba starts off his 2023 with an ESPN showdown vs. the undefeated Stephan Shaw, there are still plenty of questions about how good Ajagba can be. Is he a potential heavyweight champion or maybe a Hall of Famer? Is he a contender with a good chance to knock off anybody? Or is he just a solid fighter who will never make it to the elite level? We will continue to learn all about him on Saturday against a potentially tough opponent, particularly since Ajagba is the betting underdog. Here’s everything you need to know about Efe Ajagba vs. Stephan Shaw, including the odds, their records and a prediction on who will win.
Ajagba started his career with 15 straight wins, but that came to a halt when he faced fellow prospect Frank Sanchez in 2021. Ajagba was thoroughly outboxed and knocked down, and he lost a wide unanimous decision. He came back with a knockout victory against a low-level opponent 10 months later, but his performance vs. Sanchez led some to believe that Ajagba wasn’t ready to compete at the contender level.
