    I picked Azeez to win because as much as I like Hosea, he's just too fragile to be a top contender and his power isn't effective enough to keep anyone bay. So he did what I expected him to do. Let's wait until he gets in the ring with another genuine Light Heavyweight hardman, with sledgehammers for fists, that'll give him something to worry about, like a Callum Johnson, and if he could handle him, which I doubt he can... then maybe I'll think he's a real threat to the division. But the next Hagler, not quite.:lol:

    Dana Zeez, the Bri'ish Marvin Hagler...

    Will he be better as the Dutch Sonny Liston, the New Ray Robinson, the Armenian Mike Tyson, or the British Floyd Mayweather?

    I think you meant The Welsh Floyd Mayweather, and we see how that turned out. Being brutalized by Warrington, going life and death with Ricky Burns and getting schooled by Kambosos.:sisi1

    lmfao because he beat Hosea Burton? Everyone out there with 1% boxing knowledge expected Azeez to win that fight. He was a solid favorite on the betting market as well.

    The comparison is way too much too soon.

    Azeez is very basic and green.

    Lol no. He’s 32, coincidentally the same age Hagler retired at. But he’s fighting at domestic level. Even if he’s the goods he’ll be over the hill by the time he makes it to world level.

    Dan Azeez vs Craig Richards would be a nice fight.

    I'd favor Richards based on his sneaky power and style. Azeez might have extra gears and be more durable than people assume.
