    Yeah weird one that. Former Harlem Eubank opponent this Chavez, I think he hurt Eubank but got DQ’d for hitting on the break or something like that.

    I think Boxxer might be without a broadcaster in the near future, hence why they’re getting Azim a run out. Other than that, can’t see the point in this matchup.
    I think he's struggling to land a big fight so is probably viewing this as a 'stay busy' fight. Also, the original plan was to fight Harlem Eubank (who's now fighting Catterall) so beating a common opponent sets him up nicely to face the winner of those two.

      I don’t rate Harlem Eubank, I think Azim would stop him comfortably. Catterall probably bores us to death with a decision win. I guess the Eubank name obviously carries enough weight for top contenders to want to fight him.

        Agreed...Harlem is just living off the family name and is nothing special. What do you make of Azim? I think he's an ELITE talent because at 22yo he's already beating previous world champions and challengers like Lipinets & Davies with ease. Also, although he has fast hands like Khan, unlike Amir he's actually able to take a shot and has KO power.

          Yeah very talented kid, has a lot of natural ability and also pretty decent technically too. Shane McGuigan thinks very highly of him too, sure I’ve seen him say the most gifted fighter he’s trained.
