I wonder if Azeez can make SMW?
He impressed me for a 14-0.
Burton is a live dog at that level.
Think Burton's lack of activity was clearly evident ,not taking anything away from Azeez because he was superb .
The leaping jab was very effective .
Just looks to solid to make SMW for me .
He can fight short. The jab he was doing in the first two rounds from a wide leg low stance coming under the chin was lovely. And yes the leaping jabs and hooks were hard and accurate.
I like the look of him for sure.

That was a shite eliminator. RR should not be looking for WT shots yet.
Always a chance that DuroD was done and so it was. I don't blame sky for that.

Me too , first time I've ever seen him and a welcome addition to the division .
I like the fact he said he was coming up the traditional route and seemed proud of it.

Agreed , but I think we still don't know actually how good he is .
Thought his footwork seemed better than a few weeks ago .

I think the Jonas fight was the only one that went the distance! Perhaps the most competitive!
Lucky for sky she only wants tough fights.

IF you take out the cheesy overplayed chorus, "We Are the Champions" might be one of Queen's best songs.

One sided beat down of an old man offering nothing on the back of a four round novice workout.
That’s Sky’s Prime time time Saturday night boxing viewing !
Shocking
Awful rubbish they may pack it in, this was a stacked card they claim lol. This makes Mick Hennessy look like Dana White
Marku is kept for main event because it's all Albanians in the crowd lol

I was actually giggling there for a minute, Marku is a fun attraction like the Cabbage.
The frenchie is tougher than I expected. He looks fragile, but is hard.

And someone tell him that you don’t win rounds by standing and goading your opponent.
Oh, and as for Adam Smith and Matt Macklin, Marku’s not going to shag either of you.

I hate all the dropping the hands offering the chin sh1t. Peden v Campbell always springs to mind would love to see that happen to Marku.

Marku's not bad. He's improved.
He'll beat anyone that stands and fights up to a certain level.

I think your taking him too seriously, it's a sideshow attraction like The Cabbage. They will feed him pillow fisted durable guys and he will entertain and put bums on seats.

He is a ticket seller and that's it, would never get a fight others, big Albanian support in London.
