This YouTube video say in a commentary to BBC, Ajagba age was mentioned 33 years. Anyone has further information on this ?

But on his facebook page say DOB 22/4/1994.

I was wondering how this guy is so heavy but looks not bulky and ripped to bone. He difinitly has very heavy bone which comes as you age.

Only one youtube channel reported this, and a shvtty one at that. If it were true, he wouldn't be brought along at the snail pace he's on.

whats the evidence?

Same evidence that Luis Ortiz is 50.

None.

Just because some YouTuber says it, hardly makes it so.

There wasn't any. Info from "Inside source" and left at that. No one else covered this. I tried to find more info last week and couldn't.

aparently age fraud has been a big problem in nigerian and african football, i guess its just easy to tar all of them then

I'm sure it is in most under developed countries. Someone wanted their 15 minutes of fame in this case I suspect.

I had seen a video from someone claiming to be from the Nigerian amateur team also stating that Ajagba is older than being reported.

It’s not really such an issue for me though, regardless of whether the rumour is true or not, Ajagba is at least four years away from competing at world level.

He’s kind of irrelevant at the moment unless his handlers pick up the pace of his career progression.

I’m bored to tears reading comments from Ajagba’s fanboys claiming that he’s the next big thing, even though he keeps engaging in blatant mismatches.

I’ll start paying attention when he does something impressive.

Just because you dislike him, doesn't make him irrelevant and being 4 years away from world level ( probably 6 years away for world title per your assumption )
He beat micheal wallisch in 2 rounds in his last fight, who had gone 5 round with christian hammer ( who went 12 rounds with Luis Ortiz).

Don't bother writing endless lines with empty comment that make you look silly.

You beat me to it. Maybe EO should start a thread about Ivan Dychko.

I don't dislike Ajabga, but I do find all the hysteria and hype surrounding unbeaten prospects matched against cab driver opposition as being utterly bizarre.

I hold the same sentiments for all prospects... and most fail when they face stern opposition.

And for the record, I'll do what I want, whenever I want - you're powerless to stop me.

Pulev is 50!!!!!!

It's documented that Joe Louis was 137 when he fought Marciano.

One of my all time favorite fun movies!! But the barber shop folk ruled!

Sam Peter was always rumored to be much older than they said.

Everyone says this about nigerian and cuban boxers. No way of knowing whats true. And as long as we arent the manager or promoter who cares

You've got to be a gullible motherf*cker to think that a youtube channel is a legitimate source of information.

This same guy claims that Luis Ortiz is nearly 60 years old. There has never been a 60-year-old in boxing's history that could have beaten Travis Kaufman and Christian Hammer. Even the most well-preserved heavyweight freaks of all-time like George Foreman, Evander Holyfield, Oliver McCall, and Antonio Tarver have not been able to beat a top 50 opponent beyond age 45 or so. So if you believe this sort of claim, that Luis Ortiz is nearly 60 and doing feats that are utterly impossible for a 60-year-old, then you definitely don't know sh*t about boxing or what the historical precedent is for the capabilities of a nearly 60-year-old boxer.

This guy's evidence is that he claims he's got some secret private messages that he won't show. You are a gullible motherf*cker. You are literally taking random guy's word for it, and if he even received these private messages and isn't just making them up, then it's almost just as easy to be sending random claims through private messages. This is not investigative journalism; you're just taking the word of some random guy.
