Hamzah Sheeraz is considering a match against Chris Eubank Jr. for his upcoming bout in September following his strong win over Austin ‘Ammo’ Williams in a WBC middleweight title eliminator. Some are questioning why Sheeraz is opting for a fight against Eubank Jr. instead of aiming for a world title shot against fighters like Carlos Adames.
After encountering some challenges in his fight with Ammo Williams, Sheeraz may have realized that he needs more experience before taking on the top champions in his weight class. Eubank Jr. provides a safer option for Sheeraz, along with the potential for a profitable payday.
Sheeraz admits that Williams revealed some areas of improvement needed in his game, particularly in terms of handling punches. Though he underestimated Williams initially, the fight showcased the areas where Sheeraz must enhance before facing elite contenders like Adames or Alimkhanuly.
By challenging Eubank Jr., Sheeraz sees an opportunity for growth in his career. He understands that he still has a way to go to reach the level of fighters like Canelo and believes that facing Eubank Jr. would be a positive step forward.
Despite facing criticism for his choice of opponent, Sheeraz remains self-assured in his skills and is excited to demonstrate his abilities against Eubank Jr. in what he anticipates will be a memorable fight in September.
