The destructive performance marked the echoes debut at 168LB to 26-year-old from ilford and dramatically changed in the landscape of the weight of the class reigned by Saul, the cancel of the álvares.
Fighting the main thing of the ring magazine card staged in no 2 show court of the US open tennis tournament twice in the fourth round before closing show 17 seconds in the fifth. There was a type of showcase not only critics and immediately propels a fighter out of Prospect contender – in this case, the potential lucrative matchups with similar álvarz and David Benavidez.

After slowly three rounds, Sheeraz took control of the fourth. I slipped under Berlanga Uppercut and left hook who sent Brooklyn country crashing flat onto and a half under the cord. Beranga (23-2, 18 kos) pulse count but not recovered. Seconds later Sheeraz fell up again with crisp left-right combination sent him soneting to the wall, it seems more drowning than carried.
The Bell Time spares Beranga, but Sheeraz Work just one more saving in the fifth – on the right left, the left Beranga sagging – the prompt referee David field is right.
“I promise you, I swear that was a ring with me today, it was not stood me,” Sheeraz said later. “The only abuse I’ve got after the last fight has made me in Hungrier fighter.”

The Saturday, and he was overwhelmed in a taller, Rangelier British who perfects the canel not. The power of the once brought to 16 straight first-round knockouts never materialized, while his defense has left wide gaps to the sheeraz to the problem. I have already stood first in a career and leaves with more questions than answers of the future.
Sheeraz, in the other hand, similar to genuine risk in a stacked weight type. The size, arrive and poise – not to mention his Jab, which is used to sir in the early rounds – suggest itself to elite. Or álvarz, Benavidez and another will remain next to see.
