The Hamzah Sheeraz next fight sees the undefeated British boxing superstar make his super-middleweight debut following his controversial draw with Carlos Adames for the WBC World Middleweight Title on the Beterbiev vs Bivol 2 undercard.<\/strong><\/p>\n Sheeraz is set to make his 168-pound bow versus former ‘Canelo’ opponent Edgar Berlanga on the Shakur Stevenson vs William Zepeda undercard in New York on July 12th.<\/p>\n A lot of British boxing fans may not have been familiar with Hamzah Sheeraz a year or two ago. However, that has most definitely changed recently, with many people believing Sheeraz could even be the best fighter on UK shores right now.<\/p>\n At just 26-years-old, Sheeraz has a long and potentially fruitful career still ahead of him. Although still relatively young, Hamzah Sheeraz’s record is a near perfect 21-0-1. This includes 17 wins via knockout, as well as winning the European and Commonwealth Middleweight Titles too.<\/p>\n However, Sheeraz faced his first bump in the road as a professional in his last fight. The unbeaten Brit faced Carlos Adames for the WBC World Middleweight Title on the Beterbiev vs Bivol 2 undercard, in a fight that was ruled a draw after 12 rounds of action.<\/p>\n The general consensus is that Adames won the fight and that Sheeraz is incredibly lucky not to have suffered the first defeat of his career. That being said, there are rumours that Sheeraz broke his hand early in the fight, which is perhaps why he didn’t perform to his evident ability.<\/p>\n With that in mind, the Hamzah Sheeraz next fight has now been confirmed. Unsurprisingly, it involves a move up in weight to 168-pounds as the unbeaten Brit aims to makes waves in the super-middleweight division.<\/p>\n Sheeraz will take on Edgar Berlanga in New York on July 12th in his next fight. The bout is set for 12 rounds and will take place on the undercard of Shakur Stevenson’s next fight<\/a> against William Zepeda.<\/p>\n His Excellency Turki Alalshikh<\/a> is evidently a fan of the hard-hitting Brit, and is backing him to get back to winning ways in his next fight before challenging for world honours up at 168-pounds.<\/p>\n After his draw with Carlos Adames for the WBC World Middleweight Title, the talk of a move up to super-middleweight was rife. Now it has been confirmed that Hamzah Sheeraz’s next fight will be up at 168-pounds against Edgar Berlanga, it seems his middleweight days are behind him for good.<\/p>\nHamzah Sheeraz Next Fight: Edgar Berlanga Clash At 168-Pounds On July 12th<\/h2>\n
