He continued: “Them two keep obviously buzzing off my name. I don’t really buzz from their names, but because they keep talking about me I’ve got to talk about them as well.”

Talking about what could be next, Azim said: “The Harlem Eubank fight’s still there. The Dalton Smith fight’s still there. There’s so many fights on the horizon, but it’s whether the timing is right. I could fight a former world champion as well, so these are the step-ups I need.”

Analysing his performance against Davies, Azim said: “You guys have seen a lot of new stuff I did in the fight. Long-range, inside work, mid-range, countering from inside. It was all in the full package.”

He continued: “My tactics were really good the first three rounds, I knew I had the fight after that, but anything can happen in boxing. One punch can change anything, so I had to be really switched on.”
