      He's a bit past novice stage 😂 as he's jumped levels quickly but the other part is spot on.
      Joshua is still a novice in Hearn's eyes. The only risky fight he'll take is the cash out one for all the belts.

      @@emmawillis7823 since when has boxing worked like that? Even world champions don't nevermind domestic level fighters. With azims age and experience at domestic level i think it's still plausible to give him other domestic fights to build him up. Like eddie said he thinks its world level for dalton after the zepeda fight and eddit wouldn't take that fight himself was he shalom. This is a fact he's just stirring the pot with these sly tactics trying to force a fight. Azim doesn't need to defend his belt against dalton this has nothing to do with it as he can defend it elsehwere and neither is dalton a mandatory challenger for it so being european champ doesn't mean he's obliged to fight him.

Dalton is his mandatory for his EBU and Azim is dalton’s mandatory for his British belt. Eddie is not stirring the pot, both mandatory’s have been ordered so they want to follow to orders and fight Azim……
      Fight your mandatory which is dalton or drop the belt. It’s that simple. I’m not going to cry for a 21 year old with a belt whose currently calling out keyshawn and teo because dalton is his mandatory. Stop crying. Fighters fight.

      @emmawillis7823 Many ppl dont risk their records especially british fighters and fighters in general whereas azim compared to most british fighters at his stage has still fought better competition than most. This is a fact. Look at how frank and especially eddy the disgrace who has no room talk with the box office events he's put on. Eddie is a snake like most promoters and wouldnt take the risk in that position like i said above this has been proven.

      Azim is a hype job. He'll do what Khan did and avoid the good guys over here and call out big U.S. names so when he gets chinned he'll have the excuse "dared to be great" When in reality he's nothing special at all. Dalton on the other hand I believe is and will go on to do big things. Solid fundamentals, not flashy all sizzle no steak bullshit!

      He looks decent but as usual anyone British gets hyped up and way more often than not gets taken apart by an international fighter at world level.
      Azim looks great for his age and has Barry in his corner who is probably the best around for guiding fighters.

      @@SurprisedDodoBird-py2dl I really thought Azim would be the next Naz. But he's been found out already.
      Amir Khan got found out fairly early at high level. When someone hired the wrong opponent. But in the end his class shone through. And he learnt how to get strong in the pro game. Conor Benn learnt how to get strong in the pro game too. But hasn't faced any top level competition.
      I can't see Azim doing anything now, when he's got a target on him. The days of Hearns bringing over bum of the month opponents for Eubanks won't be able to happen any more. People wouldn't have that on Sky Sports now.
      And Joe Calzaghes how many WBO title wins what no one remembers? And who did Frank Bruno ever beat?
      Everything so out in the open now. You can't get away with putting on rubbish.
      Azim at 21 won't last long if he's stuck in a load of 50/50 fights.

      When running twice a week. When I got up to 8 miles, it was too much.
      Either he was on steroids? Or I don't know. Way he was talking, he was up and down mountains doing 7 miles of running every day.
