    If Azim doesn't need a robbery to beat Lemos then he is already a step ahead of Hitchins, comparatively speaking.

    The way Davis eviscerated Lemos, you'd have to think anything other than a stoppage for Azim is going to reflect poorly here. I think Adam wins this by stoppage. I think Hitchins is a horrible fight for him, a very technical and frustrating fighter. I could see him outboxing him in a stinker over 12 rounds. Azim is great offensively, but defensively lacking. We've never seen him in there with someone with the jab or IQ of Hitchins.

    Davis is better than Adam Azim and won a title, Lemos will get schooled, but he's not wiping him out like Keyshawn did.

    Keyshawn will see Azim at 147

    Keyshawn flushes Azim at 140 or 147.

    That's what you think Keyshawn is better , cool your opinion.. but Keyshawn swiped out a guy that couldn't make 135 and that's why missed the weight and went upto 140 after that loss..

    I expect Adam to finish Lemos inside 4 rounds because of his come forward style ..

    I remember the same nonsense about Khan, until my man Danny Garcia short-circuited that hype train.

    Azim isn't even as good as Khan.

    No fundamentals Adam is better at, and actually has a good defence , we will see if he has a career better than Khan's.

    Also Khan had a average chin, Adam so far no signs on any weak chin and he has taken some shots already with no visible issues ..

    The matchmaking of Adam Azim doesnt get spoken about enough. Hes had the perfect opponents, both style and name value combined with where they are in their careers to make him look like a superstar. I make Hitchins a favourite vs Azim, a comfortable one too. Im yet to see Azim face any adversity and until i see questions answered i dont believe he beats any of the current Champions at 140. Id go as far to say theres a good 3/4 Contenders id also favour over him too.

    Azim hasn't been in with anything remotely close to a puncher. Nor has he fought anyone with comparable physical ability.

    That will change if/when he steps up and fights the likes of Hitchins, Teo, Smith, and Shakur.

    There you go and then you will have your answers, not long to wait as they want a world title shot for Adam this year , possible Hitchins for the IBF as Adam will be ranked No.2 with the IBF when he beats Lemos..
