Hamzah Sheeraz enters the Ring 10 Top: New Super Super Middleweight at number 7

Hamzah Sheeraz has added to the top ten rankings of the Super Middleweight ring after the knockout victory over Edgar Berlanga last Saturday night in Queens, New York. The Noraz undefeated (22-0-1, 18 kos) has been placed in the number 7 in the updated ranking of 168 pounds.

The ease with which Sheeraz annihilated the Berlanga, which struck in five rounds at the Louis Armstrong stadium, was an eye workshop for the fans. Showed two things:

1. Canelo Alvarez may not be the dog higher than 168. He was forced to travel the entire 12 rounds against Berlanga last year.
2. Sheeraz’s speed, power and technical skills are light years ahead of most Super Middleweight fighters.

26 -year -old Hamzah still needs to do more to show that he is real, but because overcoming Berlanga is not enough enough for fans to know if it is the true article. Turki Alshikh recently said that sheraz wants to fight against Canelo in 2026.

If we assume that the struggle takes place next year, it will give Hamzah the opportunity to take the place of Alvarez as king of the £ 168 division. You can argue that Alvarez has it artificially Remained at the top of the division in recent years with its calculated opposition selection. Canelo probably would have lost his place long ago if he had fought against David Benavidez and David Morrell before passing until 175.

Updated ranking of Ring magazine of 168 pounds

Champion: Canelo Alvarez

1. Christian Milli
2. Diego Pacheco
3. Osleys Iglesias
4. Armando Resendiz
5. Jaime Munguia
6. Caleb plant
7. Hamzah Sheeraz
8. William Scull
9. Vladimir Shishkin
10. Bektemir Melikuziev

Osley Iglesias (13-0, 12 kos) should move to place 2 ahead of Diego Pacheco, because it is a much better talent. The old Cuban amateur talent has a true punch power and would be lethal to anyone in the division.

The list needs some remains. Move the Jaime Munguia and Caleb plant from the list. Munguia’s recent positive test for exogenous testosterone metabolites after his victory over Bruno Surace on May 3 makes him unworthy in Ring Top 10 magazine.

The former IBF champion of 168 pounds of the 12-round Caleb Plant plant of the decision decision of the 12 rounds to Armando Resendiz on May 31, was his second defeat in his last three fights. With a record 1-2, the “Sweethands” plant does not have the credentials to make it the prestigious top 10 of Ring Magazine magazine.

Add Bruno Surace to the list of the top ten because his loss in Munguia needs an asterisk due to the failure of Jaime’s drug test after the fight. The commission oversees the battle of Munguia-Surrace has not yet made a sentence to change the result to a non-concurs. However, Surace still belongs to the ring list of the ring ring, given the positive test of Munguia.
