So basically after all big talk, you suddenly fighting a unknown eubank

[@JohnJoatan]

Shook.

[@foreverfrequencies5707]

You haven't heard of him because you don't know boxing.

SHOOK.

He’s got a point, Dalton Smith was fighting a guy with 7 fights (4-2-1) in his twelfth fight 🤔

[@reece940]

Exactly why you don't go for the european title if you're not ready.

[@stuartballantyne2823]

Josh Taylor who was under the mcGuigans went in with Ohara davis in his 10 pro fight. He also went in with Victor postil in his 13 fight. If Shane thought Adam was Al tht he would have made the smith fight.

[@MB-mn7pr]

@@stuartballantyne2823 who had Ohara David fought? A Derry Matthew’s with 11 losses? No real amateur career. Taylor was a beast, one of a kind who went on to be undisputed

[@stuartballantyne2823]

@@MB-mn7pr you said yourself Tht Taylor was a beast one of a kind. Shane has sad publicly tht Adam is one of if not the best fighters he’s ever trained. If tht was the case then why not put him in the dalton smith fight. If he’s Al tht then why pull him out. They backed themselves into a corner with putting Adam at European level. If he’s not ready then they should not have done tht. Josh Taylor was the underdog in the Ohara davis fight most people thought it was to early for him only people tht knew he would win was his team. (The mcGuigans) Ohara at the time was being billed as the next big thing by Eddie Hearn.

[@MB-mn7pr]

@@stuartballantyne2823 I think you’re right about the title, if your a champ of any kind be prepared to defend. But if I am Adam’s manager I’m not putting him in a 50/50 until it’s at least a world title eliminator. If he was to fight Dalton and loose his team would look stupid and we would all be telling them how sh1t they are.

Very, very good response from Azim…they know what they’re doing, as much as Eddie wants to make out they don’t.

[@Nasim19872]

He's obviously been hanging around Tyson Fury.

[@CG20132]

Not embrassing at all mate. We know eddie is just being sly and wants ben and his fighters to fail. This is the dirty side of boxing unfortunately. Adam is a warrior and for ppl to give him stick just because he marketed himself by throwing names out there is just looking for an excuse to put the lad down. Who doesnt mention world class fighters? This builds the fights later and is promotion. Theyll ignore eddy and will crack on as hes just being a snake. Edster must be burning now shalom is working with the eubanks haha

[@Jordan1223_]

@@CG20132 I agree that maybe Adam would want the fight but he’s been advised not to take that fight and that’s a wise move but they shouldn’t of made him European champion if he wasn’t ready because him vacating his belt doesn’t do well for his image what you got to remember is Adam was European champion dalton was mandatory for that belt so it was called by them he’s vacated to avoid that fight that’s the top an bottom of it

[@Jordan1223_]

Azim is 21, his team wont risk his career fighting Dalton Smith. If anything Dalton Smith is going backwards he should be moving forwards and fighting Hitchin's next.

[@yiman8825]

Adams 21 got plenty of time yet, of course his team think he's not ready which is fine he's still young, personally taking the fight and potentially losing wouldn't have done much damage because he's young it would have damaged Dalton more due to the ages

[@vanderpant2116]

He shouldn't be fighting for titles if he is not willing to defend them.

[@Nasim19872]

@@vanderpant2116 I wonder if you were saying the same when Tyson Fury became a cokehead and decided not to defend his title against Klitschko.

[@CG20132]

@vanderpant2116 this is the sport of boxing which is the business. Adams progressed quick as it is for his age and experience. Lets see if dalton really fights for the european belt because if he doesnt then wow what a disgrace that would be because their whole premise was that dalton wanted the european belt. But then after the zepeda fight they were saying hes ready for world titles and were gonna go down in levels to fight azim. Lets hope they hold true to their word and fight for the belt as he his mandatory for it right.

[@marshecus1]

Poor explanation as expected . Shouldn’t have done an interview . He isn’t ready for dalton . Giving up title . Eddie will enjoy this

[@zabairhussain691]

Eddie got no right to laugh at this. That team has protected Benn and Hatton for a long time now. And look at their careers. They haven't progressed. Eddie would love to have Azim at Matchroom. It's too early to fight Dalton.

Eddie Hearn needs to do a better job in promoting Dalton Smith. Shameful how a pretty raw kid Azim gets bigger press coverage then Dalton Smith.

The issue is you fought for the European title when you were not willing to defend it, poor management

[@porkchopexpress1]

Observation made during this interview, Adam Azim likes the word "obviously".

[@rysie1145]

Very embarrassing from Adam’s team and boxxer. Don’t talk about this being perfect fight cause Harlem is 19-0 and he is 11-0 or something. Dalton has had less fights that Harlem. He is only 16 fights. It’s a duck, that’s fine just admit it. You are not ready for dalton yet, his resume is better and you need some more fights but don’t use harlems name and his record etc. It’s simple, boxxer will not put any of there main fighters on any1 else network, that’s fine but just admit it please. It’s same with Wardley v Clarke purse bid. All the way up to purse bid, boxxer made offers for the fight on sky. Wardley wanted to go to purse bid to get lost money from the fight. As a result they pulled Fraser but then used excuse he wasn’t ready yet. But you tried to make the fight before purse bid. Ben said when he came in to sky, he wants to work with everyone but only on sky. Simple as. Not making decisions in fighters interest. This is a bad look for mcguigans and certainly a very bad look for Adam and Ben / boxxer.

[@r95kfw]

Why fight for a belt if your not gonna fight your mandatory

[@wolfie8712]

Him and McGuigans 😂😂😂

[@CN-ks7tl]

Come on don’t give the lad stick As a boxer they will fight anybody anytime It’s his team that makes all the decisions

[@andyc7946]

No it isn’t, ultimately it’s the boxers. He’s the boss he pays the team.

[@rysie1145]

It is but it’s the fighters career and we see how this type of decisions impacted Fraser Clarke. Don’t give the usual Excuses as well it’s all lies. Answer is boxxer does not want to risk losing Adam for that fight on a rival platform, simple as.

[@Jordan1223_]

He’s a valued fighter of boxxer so I think you are right they don’t want to risk losing him to dalton but they haven’t handled him well made him European champion an shouting big names out then ducks him doesn’t make Adam look good they have embarrassed him by putting him in a situation he wasn’t ready for

Eubank is a good fight. I think also a sensible decision from Azim's team. Azim has potential but he need more years in camps and experience. Smith is a bannana skin fight, where it could be a couple of fights too soon, cos Smith is fringe world level right now, and Azim will be, but he's only 21. He's got years until he hits his prime.
