HAMZAH SHEERAZ finally gets a tilt at a world title in a HUGE fight against Carlos Adames on the Fight Card of the Century.
WBC middleweight champion Carlos Adames comes into this fight with 24 wins, 18 by knockout, and the highly coveted belt.
Sheeraz has been built for a world title since age 12 and has had a meteoric rise up the rankings – where he is 21-0 with 17 knockouts.
