Hamzah Sheeraz sits down with Ak and Barak at the Fightin Blue in Las Vegas for a no-holds-barred conversation about his rise from fixing sockets in Eden Hazard’s apartment to becoming one of boxing’s most dangerous fighters at 168 pounds. Sheeraz opens up about his father being in and out of prison, dropping out of school at 16, almost walking away from boxing to be an electrician, and the moment of desire that pulled him back. Within six weeks of returning to the gym, Frank Warren offered him a pro contract.

Sheeraz breaks down the Edgar Berlanga KO that changed his life, addresses the hand wrap controversy head-on (the commission told him to leave it on), and reveals the Canelo fight was nearly done before the elbow surgery. He shares his honest take on Conor Benn leaving Eddie Hearn for Zuffa Boxing, explains why he’s never had a wandering eye for Matchroom, and gets real about the Ricky Funez trainer split and his brotherhood with Andy Lee. Plus: Floyd vs Crawford P4P debate (he picks Floyd), why Caleb Plant would be his toughest fight, and the legacy vs money question that splits the boxing world.
