Williams comes into the fight having beaten Steve Rolls and Armel Mbumba-Yassa in his last two bouts. The American reads punches well and has speed and power, which he will need to utilise to avoid Sheeraz from bossing the contest. The Brit will need to utilise his excellent jab and work off that.

When speaking to DAZN, Williams didn’t hold back on his prediction: “Brutal knockout, it will be a brutal knockout.”
He continued: “A good thing that my coach gave to me in this fight was Aaron Pryor, his upper body movement, Marvin Hagler, his upper body movement, the way that he comes at the guy relentlessly.”
He added: “I’m going to take the risks in this fight, I’m going to show my strengths. I know Hamzah hasn’t seen anyone like me, he hasn’t seen anyone who is going to stand up to him and push the fight, push him back, he hasn’t seen that.”
“I’m excited to show that, I’m excited to show my gas tank, I’m excited to show everything that I’ve worked on my whole career, and it will be a brutal, devastating knockout.”
