At present, Hamzah Sheeraz posted a photograph of his injured left hand on social media. The hand was injured throughout his battle final Saturday night time towards WBC middleweight champion Carlos Adames on Turki Alalshikh’s card at The Venue in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The battle was dominated a 12-round break up draw, however followers overwhelmingly noticed Adames because the winner by a large margin. Fighters often get injured palms however nonetheless discover a option to win in the event that they’re proficient sufficient.
If Sheeraz believes in himself, he’ll battle a rematch with Adames. I wouldn’t advocate him doing that. He may be dominated even worse within the second battle, and he could have been proven that his profession was all the time simply smoke and mirrors—he was only a advertising creation to earn a living.The scores

Overmatched
The issue with Sheerez utilizing his injured hand seemingly as an excuse for why he seemed so poor is that he was struggling towards Adames from the primary spherical, getting out-punched and out-fought, and searching timid all the time. Hamzah seemed worse than poor from the get-go, and nobody is shopping for his harm as an alibi for his horrible efficiency.
I watched the battle and had Adames profitable 118-110. It was certainly one of his simpler victories, as Hamzah resembled a British-level fighter that didn’t belong contained in the ring with him. The judges did Sheeraz no favors by giving him the draw as a result of it made him seem like he was given preferential remedy as a result of he was being constructed as much as be the subsequent star. Nonetheless, Hamzah, 25, had been matched towards non-world his total eight-year skilled profession.
Sheeraz had by no means fought a step-up kind of opponent to arrange him adequately for his title battle towards Adames. That was one of many issues. His promoters ought to have matched him towards a top-five contender first earlier than dashing him right into a world title battle towards the weakest hyperlink among the many three world champions at 160.
“This was his first world title fight. He went for it, but he came up short,” stated Carl Froch on his YouTube channel, speaking about Hamzah Sheeraz failing in his battle towards Carlos Adames final Saturday night time in Riyadh. “Carlos Adames was an excessive amount of for him.
“A lot of people were saying it wasn’t a close fight. On one of the scorecards, it was 118-110, which is a wide victory for Adames. The other two, 114-114, a draw, and the other one went one point [115-114] for Sheeraz. “The general consensus is, that Hamzah Sheeraz got well beat.”
