Bournemouth, UK - Dan Azeez continued his climb up the light-heavyweight rankings as he handed former WBA “regular” super-middleweight champion Rocky Fielding a one-sided beating over eight rounds to defend his British title and add the vacant Commonwealth title on the Billam-Smith v Xhoxhaj bill.

Aged 33, Azeez was a late starter to boxing but he is blooming nicely and is now trained by Buddy McGirt. This was his 18th successive win as a professional, as he steadily broke down Fielding, who at 35, did not have enough left to stick with him.
