Hamzah Sheeraz’s draw against Carlos Adames Derails Potential 2026 Canelo Alvarez Clash

Journalist Thomas Hauser reveals that Hamzah Sheeraz’s performance in his 12 -round tie against WBC Middle Weight Champion Carlos Adames Saturday night in Riadh “Many plans” For him to face the unified champion of 168 pounds Canelo Alvarez in September 2026.

After the fight, Hamzah’s promoter said he had suffered a hand injury, which he considered to have contributed to his performance. However, Adames dominated from the second opening of the first round.

Exposed hype

Sheerez’s direction had chosen Adames (24-1-1, 18 kos), which many boxing fans saw as The weakest bond Between the three champions at the age of 160. However, he was afraid from the beginning. There is no other champion that sheraz can be combined to win a title to validate it in the eyes of the public and create an interest in a fight with Canelo in September 2026. Sheerez looks like an example of a textbook.

The Adames dominated the 6’3 “Hamzah railway, overcoming and apparently gaining a unilateral struggle. However, the judges marked him as a draw, saving Sheerez (21-0-1, 17 kos) of which many fans saw as a loss.

The scores

-115-114: Sheerez
-118-110: Adames
-114-114

Due to the unilateral nature of the adames-sheeraz struggle, it would be a mistake that Hamzah’s promoter created a resale because he probably will lose. I had the champion, Adames, winning 10-2 in a completely unilateral struggle. You could say seeing the contest that Sheeraz would never exceed this type, no matter how much they struggled. Is not at this talent level.

“I was disappointed in the way Sheeraz fought and bothered many plans. As I understand, the idea was Canelo, who has a four -fights agreement with the General Saudi Arabia entertainment authority, assumes that he will fight (168 pound champion of £ 16) William Scull this May and then Terence Crawford in September, “said Thomas Hauser a According toSpeaking of the very controversial tie of 12 Hamzah Sheeraz against WBC Middleweight, Carlos Adames, last Saturday night he upset the fighting plans between Sheeraz and Canelo Alvarez in 2026.

“At the weekend of Five of Mayo in 2026, it is likely that he (Canelo) will fight against the winner of (Conor) Benn I (Chris) Eubank Jr. and, if everything is going to plan, he would have a great fight against the Mexican Independence Day by 2026 against Sheeraz.

“I would assume that Turki, a great fan of Sheeraz, would wait for Canelo to be older and Sheeraz will be better. Sheeraz did not fight well (against the Adames). Maybe his hand was broken. I don’t know if he was or not. There have been fighters who have fought with their hands broken.

Early alert signs

This is probably not a good idea for Sheeraz’s management to set up a resale between him and the adames because the odds are high as the same problems. Adames is too talented for Sheerez, who was exposed as what the fans had thought. The warm -up signs were already there that Hamzah was a bombo job when he was injured last June by the Austin ‘Ammo’ contestant Williams.

If the ammunition had some talent, Sheraz would have ended, as it was out of the first rounds of this struggle. After this game, Hamzah’s leadership fueled him a weak British fighter, Tyler Denny, who looked well against this low -level fighter. It was just a camouflage to cover Sheraz’s vulnerability.

“It was a matter of someone from many people created to believe,” this guy is a beast. It’s really good. This is the real one, and he did not look against the Adames, which was a struggle for the two men. The Adames increased and Sheeraz did not. We will see if it regrouches and returns strong in the future, “said Hauser.
