    Sheeraz is the fighter with most potential right now, entertaining to watch and marketable both in Saudi and the UK. Hamzah has huge power and reach but is not the best boxer IMO and always appeared quite static. That said I think he has enough to get past Adames if he can tough it out.

    How do people see this one going?

    Sheeraz by knockout. Future multi-weight world champion.

    Bradley Skeete was well on his way to win the fight against Sheeraz.

    Let's see Sheeraz against a spirited opponent. That's the only way to find out if we should take him seriously.

    This is what people were saying when Sheeraz was put in against Austin Williams. He annihilated him. Now people are saying the same thing again. The goal posts are forever shifting when it comes to Sheeraz.

    I wonder why. Oh, I wonder.

    He definitely has potential and I wish him all the best.

    Just think some people on this forum are overestimating his abilities in a boxing ring :)

    Interesting. It seems clear to me that people, especially the Brits, have been and still are underestimating him. We're talking about a multi-weight world champion here.

    Wasn't Austin Williams a spirited opponent?

    I always keep in the back of my mind that professional boxing is a business. How many tickets does Sheeraz sell ?

    Sheeraz stops him, he’s too big for these guys, the only guy who would beat him at 160lbs is Janibek Alimkhanuly IMO.

    Sheeraz has had the softest route to a title ever.

    Adames won his title by email a few months ago, and apparently got a gift in his first defence

    You have ignored my responses to this comment you made

    "Let's see Sheeraz against a spirited opponent. That's the only way to find out if we should take him seriously."

    Was Austin Williams not a spirited opponent?

    Austin Williams is a basic, mediocre nobody.

    Austin Williams was a spirited opponent, which is what we were discussing. Sheeraz was awesome. Destined for greatness.

    Anyone see Value in Carlos Adames @ 3.5 (5/2) ?
