Would love to see him move above domestic level and see if he can cut it People say he is an ugly fighter but I appreciate his qualitys,an ugly fighter looks to defend or hold,Hamilton pinned anwar down and punished him.no mean feat Lonsdale belt outright and then on to European level
Would get brutalized at world level as the power difference would be scary. Nice guy and a nice story though. Should stay at this level.
From what I've seen it looks like he's actually already overachieving. It might be something I'm missing but aside from looking completely unschooled, there were a couple moments I was thinking "Why de F doesn't Anwar take this free shot at him" when he turned to the left with his hands down. It's possible that Adil just is that limited or Darren is doing something in there that completely eludes me, but I really think he will get pummeled if he fights beyond domestic level. For him I hope I'm wrong.
Won't knock him out but would beat him. Boxing ability is about so much more than dancing on your toes and flicking out a fast jab. Watch old school fighters from 40s/50s. His cross arm defence makes him very difficult to catch. His unconventional stretched-out stance and strong jab makes it hard to avoid getting hit when getting in and out of punching range. Then he has good variety of punches inside, something (to Anwar's credit) you didn't see much of. It will take a very good fighter to beat him.
He was always gona be Anwar. Anwar is another Naseem imposter. Keep it simple and keep your hands up. Anwar doesnt have the reflexes or ability to fight like a maverick.
