    He really did look like he was protecting a wide margin lead throughout the whole fight.

    I hope it was the weight and a broken hand because if not that was just a dreadful performance.

    You could see how fried Frank was after about 5 rounds with him

    I'm a fan of his but I have to say he looked very one dimensional last night. Lacking in ideas when faced with an opponent who moved well.

    I had Adames winning 8-4.

    Many a fighter has boxed with a broken hand. Just bite down on the gum shield and let the hands go. Win the fight. Awful performance and lucky to get a draw.

    That's almost as convenient as the scorecards.

    Very poor fight, even by alphabet standards.
    Adames is hardly a ball of fire and Turki’s “Ambassador, “ blew his showcase on his home stage!

    Simpson v Sheeraz at 168 is the most obvious fight to make and sell here in the UK.

    Totally puzzled how he was ranked number 2 in The Ring magazine rankings behind Adames (3) and Lara (4). He is not even a top 10 middleweight based on that performance.

    Overhyped... I don't think we will see much more of Sheeraz at top title level

    I'd actually backed Sheeraz for late stoppage but he was useless.. I wouldn't watch him for free he'd put a glass eye to sleep

    I only had one eye on it because I was so bored. In fact, it was pissing me off watching him circle the ring on the back foot despite being massive compared to his opponent who i'm sorry to say, and i know it's an unpopular opinion, isn't a world beater. Adames is a very ordinary champion.

    I don't think Sheeraz will be seen at top level again unless or Lord and saviour Turki has taken a shine to him which is possible with the Muslim connection

    not sure mate I don't think he's very good. Does Turki al al shake show a bias for muslim boxers? I've not looked into it but I do remember Bsdou Jack seemingly coming out of nowhere to box and win a belt beating Makabu and he was going on about the religious stuff afterwards.

    Apparently Turki became very familiar with the scorecards on his fight.
