Well sounds like the fight was a bust with neither boxer doing anything, and Ajagba just doing a bit more to get the decision.

And Guido lost on a cut to Rice in a fight Guido was winning, cut was caused by a punch

97-93 Ajagba, terrible fight, hardly night and day between both fighters but Shaw just not busy enough, seemed to freeze on the big stage and I doubt it was because Ajagba made him feel his power because Ajagba was happy just to pepper away with the jab, never seemed interested in letting the right hand go and opening Shaw up, a forgettable fight

In a weird way no advancement for any of the heavies on the show

Yep, can't see Arum being in any rush to have Ajagba headline any time soon

Don’t really have anything to say about this fight, but I thought I’d just tell you all that whenever I read Efe Ajagba’s name I read it to the tune of Copa Cabana. Try it yourself now, Efe, Efe Ajagba!

The crowd were booing a 50/50 heavyweight fight.
It's very rare for it to be that lame.
But it was. Even one of the commentators said it was boring, guess he's looking for work now!

Recorded it and just watched it all back. Some decent scraps early on but the two heavyweight fights were pretty lame.
I haven’t been impressed with Guido Vianello previously and he was poor again.
The main event was pretty dull but Shaw will be really kicking himself as I thought he looked OK early on but then seemed to just stop doing anything.

Typical Sky, they weren’t even doing the commentary but still managed to apologise for the ‘strong language’…pathetic.
