Podcasts about hamzah sheeraz

To mark South Asian Heritage Month, Buncey is joined by former IBO world champion Jawaid Khaliq and the BBC's Kal Sajad to celebrate the South Asian community's contribution to British boxing. From the pioneers who broke down barriers to today's new generation of stars, they explore how British boxing has evolved and why South Asian representation in the sport is stronger than ever.The discussion looks back at trailblazers such as Amir Khan, who paved the way, the challenges they faced, and the lasting impact they've had on the sport both inside and outside the ring. We also hear from two of Britain's biggest boxing names, Hamzah Sheeraz and Adam Azim, who reflect on their heritage, their journeys to the top, and the responsibility they feel as role models for the next generation.This podcast has been edited since publication.

On episode 390 of The Neutral Corner Boxing Podcast, host Michael Montero reviews a loaded weekend of boxing with fights from around the world. The biggest event took place in Australia, where Tim Tszyu decisively beat Errol Spence Jr by unanimous decision. In other action, Anthony Joshua survived an early score to score a stoppage win in Saudi Arabia, while Tyson Fury secured a win in Thailand, setting up a long-awaited showdown between the two of them. Hamzah Sheeraz, Josh Kelly, Richardson Hitchins and Edgar Berlanga earned victories as well. https://www.youtube.com/live/ScfWRECCF70

Where did our heroes go? This week we saw Anthony Joshua survive two knockdowns to beat Kristian Prenga, and Tim Tszyu defeat Errol Spence Jr in a sad summer pay-per-view. Spence retired after the main event, and Joshua will move into a fight with Tyson Fury, who also fought this weekend (and also looked awful). We talk about Stephen Fulton, the "Cool Boy," missing weight and getting his fight canceled against Liam Wilson, as cool people do. Hamzah Sheeraz looked mid against Simon Zachenhuber. Sheeraz won a vacant title, but are we starting to wonder about his potential and clear favoritism toward his career?  Also, Josh Kelly got his nose busted up, winning a 12-round decision over Caoimhin Agyarko. This week, we have one major card. DAZN in partnership with TNT Sports will return with a lightweight bout between Lamont Roach Jr and William Zepeda. In the co-feature,  Raymond Muratalla will make the first defense of his IBF lightweight title against Robson Conceicao. Other notable bouts include welterweight Raul Curiel versus Quinton Randall, junior middleweight Charles Conwell versus Paul Kroll, and middleweight Fabian Guzman versus Aaron Coley. Joel Iriarte and Dylan Capetillo are prospects featured on this card as well.0:00 Intro1:07 Josh Kelly5:30 Hamzah Sheeraz9:45 Anthony Joshua-Tyson Fury22:20 Tim Tszyu vs Errol Spence34:34 Lamont Roach Jr-William Zepeda41:00 Undercard

In this episode, Lukie and (Jason) Lagendorf talk about the return of Errol Spence Jr., who faces Tim Tszyu in Australia on pay-per-view. Three years ago, this would have been massive; now it just is what it is. A solid fight, but a lot of lingering “What ifs?” Does Spence still have it? (He hasn't fought since the Terence Crawford fight)Can Tszyu absorb punishment from a high-level fighter? The answers we don't know.An undercard bout with Jermall Charlo is now off, as he couldn't obtain a visa. Stephen Fulton's official lightweight debut against Liam Wilson will serve as the co-feature, with Australian talent rounding out the rest of the card. Then, we have two high-profile names back in action.Tyson Fury will fight Mariusz Wach in Thailand. As of now, I don't think they have announced how to watch it. Also, on pay-per-view, Anthony Joshua is facing Kristian Prenga. Is it safe to say Joshua is in the unserious part of his career? The pay-per-view card is shockingly thin. WBO super middleweight champ Hamzah Sheeraz will face Simon Zachenhuber. Zachenhuber lost to Pawel August on the previous Fury fight card, but August is buried on the undercard facing Jacob Bank, the man who stopped William Scull. Make it make sense. IBF welterweight champ Josh Kelly returns against Caoimhin Agyarko, which is a good fight, and Ukrainian Olympic gold medalist Oleksandr Khyzhniak will fight. He is more Serhii Bohachuk than he is Lomachenko. Nishant Dev is always a nice treat to see on a card as well. Also, on Sunday at Zuffa Boxing, Edgar Berlanga will make his promotional debut against Steven Butler. Richardson Hitchins will face Ricardo Salas, not an easy debut, and middleweight Sergiy Derevyanchenko will open the main telecast against Jalil Hackett. The undercard is solid with Otto Wallin facing Vladyslav Sirenko, and the promotional debut of Dominique Francis. A good 50-50 fight between Arnold Gonzalez and Emiliano Moreno, and as always, featherweight Troy Nash Jr is must-see TV as he faces unbeaten Ethan Perez.This week, we saw Diego Pacheco stop Immanuwel Aleem. Now, we ask more questions… For my mailbag, I was asked if Pacheco looked different than when he fought Trevor McCumby. Lazily, I will ask Dakota. Buddy McGirt now trains Pacheco; did we see a difference? People seem divided on Pacheco – can we make sense of it all?Also on the undercard, Andy Cruz stopped Abraham Montoya in three rounds and appears headed to the junior lightweight division. Featherweight Albert Gonzalez stopped Aaron Alameda in two rounds. WOW! Also, Bruno Rios and Saul Sanchez had a classic that might get forgotten. You can visit The Good Fight here: http://TheGoodFight12.Substack.comTimestamps0:00 intro and thoughts on The Good Fight11:15 Too many pay-per-views ( Joshua and Spence vs. Tszyu)17:35 Spence vs. Tszyu30:32 Joshua and Tyson Fury fight previews37:24 Why I am mad for Pawel August 46:40 Thoughts on Diego Pacheco59:50 Bruno Rios vs. Saul Sanchez 01:03:50 Zuffa Boxing thoughts01:20:08 Andy Ruiz releases a rap song

Oleksandr Usyk verteidigte am Samstagabend seinen WBC-Schwergewichtstitel gegen den ehemaligen Kickbox-Champion Rico Verhoeven. Der Ukrainer stoppte Verhoeven in der 11. Runde durch technischen Knockout vor den Pyramiden von Gizeh in Ägypten.  Bis zum Abbruch durch Ringrichter Mark Lyson machte der 37-jährige Niederländer eine gute Figur in seinem zweiten Profiboxduell überhaupt und ließ den ungeschlagenen Routinier Usyk teils schlecht aussehen. Der 39-jährige Titelverteidiger hatte Probleme in den Kampf zu kommen, war zu statisch und setzte zu wenig Treffer. Verhoeven boxte unorthodox, lief stets agressiv nach vorne, brachte harte Hände ins Ziel und lag bei vielen Box-Experten nach Punkten vorne.  Der Abbruch in Runde 11 erfolgte eine Sekunde vor dem Ende der Runde und kam für viele Box-Fans zu früh. Mit seiner überzeugenden Leistung empfahl sich Verhoeven für einen Rückkampf. Gleichzeitig wartet auch Agit Kabayel weiterhin auf seine Chance auf einen WM-Kampf gegen Usyk.

Is Rico Verhoeven about to do the unthinkable and upset world heavyweight champion, Oleksandr Usyk? Well, no, of course he's not, but what Usyk ultimately looks like and how he wins are certainly worthwhile questions. So too is the status of the belts as, in different ways, each of the WBC, IBF and WBA somehow approve this as a championship contest. Better is the undercard where Frank Sanchez and Richard Torrez Jr meet in a solid heavyweight eliminator and Jack Catterall goes in tough against Shakram Glyasov. Hamzah Sheeraz, however, might have an even easier night than Usyk when he battles Alem Bagic for a vacant title. The Opening Bell, the independent voice in boxing. Learn more about your ad choices.

Der Schwergewichtskampf zwischen Oleksandr Usyk und Rico Verhoeven am 23. Mai vor den Pyramiden von Gizeh sorgt für ein ungewöhnliches Titel-Chaos bei den großen Boxverbänden. Nach aktuellen Entscheidungen von WBC, WBA und IBF gelten für den Fight unterschiedliche Regeln. Usyk hält derzeit die Schwergewichtsgürtel der WBC, WBA und IBF. Der WBC-Titel steht offiziell auf dem Spiel und könnte bei einer Niederlage an Verhoeven gehen. Die IBF wiederum hat festgelegt, dass ihr Gürtel im Fall einer Usyk-Niederlage vakant würde. Verhoeven könnte also trotz eines Sieges nicht IBF-Weltmeister werden. Bei der WBA ist die Lage noch komplizierter: Verhoeven ist dort nicht gerankt und daher nicht titelberechtigt. Gewinnt Usyk, zählt der Kampf trotzdem als erfolgreiche Titelverteidigung. Sollte Verhoeven gewinnen, entscheidet das WBA Championship Committee anschließend über den Status von Usyk. Für den 37-jährigen Verhoeven ist es erst der zweite Profiboxkampf überhaupt. Im Kickboxen gilt er dagegen seit Jahren als dominanter Schwergewichtschampion. Usyk geht mit einer makellosen Bilanz von 24 Siegen in den Kampf und wird von Experten klar favorisiert. Rückblick: Shane Mosley Jr. vs. Serhii Bohachuk Julian Rodriguez vs. James Perella Karen Chukhadzhian vs. Paddy Donovan Peter Kadiru vs. Senad Gashi Viktor Jurk vs. Edwin Castillo Emanuel Odiase vs. Nick Webb Nelvie Tiafack vs. Mateus Munhoz Da Penha Edmon Avagyan vs. Patrik Fiala Rico Müller vs. Goodluck Mrema David Allen vs. Filip Hrgovic Vorschau: Amari Jones vs. Vincenzo Gualtieri Robin Sirwan Safar vs. Yamil Alberto Peralta Oleksandr Usyk vs. Rico Verhoeven  Jack Catterall vs. Shakhram Giyasov Frank Sanchez vs. Richard Torrez Jr. Hamzah Sheeraz vs. Alem Begic Tamas Kovacs vs. Shoaib Akhtar Justin Marvin Hoffmann vs. Daniel Bialek Thanh Phong Nguyen vs. Sascha Mai Ermal Hadribeaj vs. Bakary Samake Mourad Aliev vs. Raphael Akpejiori News: Die WBA erkennt nur einen Sieg von Oleksandr Usyk gegen Rico Verhoeven als Titelverteidigung an!

Dwyer discussing boxer Diego Pacheco hiring Buddy McGirt as his trainer and avoiding Hamzah Sheeraz for now.

We sit down with Brooklyn’s own Edgar Berlanga for one of his most honest and revealing conversations yet. This isn’t just about boxing, this is about the man behind the fighter. Berlanga opens up about growing up in Brooklyn as a proud Puerto Rican, the influence of his family, and the complicated but powerful relationship he has with his father. Despite his father being in and out of prison throughout his life, Berlanga shares how that bond shaped him, and why love and motivation define their connection today. We also get into his career and what’s next. From his focus on making a major comeback in the ring, to having a deal in place and a fight date on the horizon, Berlanga addresses everything, including the tough loss to Hamzah Sheeraz on July 12 at the Armstrong Theater in Flushing. He speaks candidly about that moment, what he learned from it, and how it’s fueling his next chapter. We also talk potential matchups, including a possible clash with Chris Eubank Jr., and where he stands in today’s evolving boxing landscape, including his thoughts on influencer boxing and names like Jake Paul. Beyond the ring, this episode shows a different side of Berlanga. A father, a son, a provider, someone who gives back to his community and deeply values the people around him. He addresses the biggest misconceptions about him and how his flashy lifestyle and social media presence don’t always reflect who he truly is. And there’s another layer you might not expect, Berlanga talks about his love for music and reveals that he’s been creating music behind the scenes for years. Now, he’s stepping into that space publicly with his upcoming single “Baby Mama”, embracing a new level of vulnerability and creativity. This conversation is about growth, redemption, family, and identity. It’s about seeing the real Edgar Berlanga, not just the headlines, not just the highlight reels, but the human being behind it all.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
