Prediction: Hamzah Sheeraz on Points
Result: Hamzah Sheeraz by Stoppage
Pretty powerful performance from Sheeraz. I thought Berlanga would have been able to survive a tough fight on points while being competitive, but Sheeraz blasted him out of there. It’s Berlanga so I can’t say I’m surprised but Berlanga did go 12 with Canelo only last year. A statement from Sheeraz who gets back in the win column after the controversial draw last time out. I think he got in the way of himself in that fight and I always knew he could do better. Still you need to prove you can perform on the big stage and he did just that tonight.
