Adam Azim: record, next fight and profile →
Adam Azim and Ohara Davies, who have been friends since meeting in Tunde Ajayi’s Peacock Gym in London years ago, will meet in the ring on Oct. 19 at the Copper Box Arena in London.
Ohara Davies was respectful when speaking about opponent Adam Azim at today’s press conference for their Oct. 19 fight at London’s Copper Box Arena – but not so for Azim's promoter and trainer.
After spending months entangled in boxing politics with Dalton Smith and then a prolonged period on the treatment table, unable to nail down a date with Harlem Eubank, Adam Azim will instead return to action against Ohara Davies on October 19th.
Sometimes, especially when it comes to social media, it is best not to say anything at all. If, for example, someone dies, famous or otherwise, there is really no need for JoeBloggs649264883 to comment publicly or express what the deceased meant to them. Similarly, if a big news story appears to be trending, there is no need for JoeBloggs649264883 to offer his opinion on said story in the hope his opinion – and therefore JoeBloggs649264883 – will be seen.

Super lightweight contender Dalton Smith (16-0, 12 KOs) was surprised former three-time world title challenger Jose Zepeda (37-5, 28 KOs) could not get to his feet after dropping and stopping the Mexican in the fifth round. After a cagey opening three rounds, Smith established his range and countered the onrushing Mexican, establishing his rhythm and negating the visiting Mexican's attempted assaults. A stabbing right hand to the pit of Zepeda's abdomen saw the visitor drop to the canvas in distress, remaining on the canvas and was ultimately counted out by referee Victor Loughlin.
