Adam Azim vs Ohara Davies: Start time, stream, TV channel and undercard for TONIGHT’S lightweight bout in London
ADAM AZIM is putting his undefeated record on the line once again TONIGHT as he takes on British rival Ohara Davies in a mouthwatering lightweight.
Assassin hasn’t looked back since stopping Franck Petitjean in round ten of their 2023 fight to become the new European light-welterweight champion.
The Slough-born icon won and defended the European title in record timing as Azim went on to beat challenger Enock Poulsen three months later.
But Assassin could be coming up against his toughest challenge yet as he faces a former British and Commonwealth champion with a point to prove.
However, the wind will certainly be in the sails of Azim as Davies goes into this battle fresh from a TKO loss against Ismael Barroso.
Ironically, both men started their boxing journeys in East London’s iconic Peacock Gym with Azim looking up to Davies who is ten years older.

What has been said?
Adam Azim admitted that he respects Ohara Davies whereas Davies is confident that he’ll be handing Azim his first loss.
Azim said: “I can’t wait to get back in the ring and back to what I do best,” said Azim. “It was a great honour to win and defend the European title but now I’m ready for my next challenge.
“I’ve known Ohara Davies for many years. I respect him and what he’s achieved in the sport but when we meet in the ring, he’s just another opponent and another step on my journey to the top.
“He’s a good fighter. I think our styles will make for an exciting fight but there’s only going to be one outcome. I’m ready to make a statement and show everybody that I’m ready for the biggest names in the division.”
Davies said: “I’m excited for this fight. I like Adam Azim. I’ve known him since he was very young and it’s amazing to see his success so far in boxing,
“I followed him in the amateurs, and I’ve always respected him. But he isn’t a kid anymore. He’s grown into a man with massive potential. And that’s why it’s a shame that I have to hand him his first defeat.
“No needle, no hate, I want us to go back to our families happy and healthy after the fight. But this is where it all changes for him. I’m sorry Adam. This is where it ends.”

Man Utd star Rasmus Hojlund slammed as ‘rubbish’ and ‘poor’ by Ben Foster for injuring team-mate in training
MANCHESTER UNITED ace Rasmus Hojlund was dubbed “rubbish” and “poor” by ex-England goalkeeper Ben Foster after breaking a team-mate’s tooth during training.
The incident took place last summer before Euro 2024 when Hojlund, 21, linked up with Denmark to prepare for the tournament in Germany.
The Danish national team organised an “optional” set-piece training that would see them working on corner-kicks with Leicester goalkeeper Mads Hermansen, 24, between the sticks.
A cross was whipped in from the corner and Hermansen was set to pick the ball up in the air.
However, Hojlund got a little overzealous as he went for the ball with full force and accidentally elbowed the keeper in the mouth.
That led to the Leicester ace losing a tooth just before the European Championship.
Hermansen discussed the incident in Foster’s Fozcast podcast: “You know as a goalkeeper sometimes when you have set-piece practice. It’s like, ‘Are we going 100 per cent? Are we just a bit easy?’
“So we were with the national team just before the Euros, it was optional training, you could come in and train if you want.
“So let’s do some corners. I go: ‘Keepers!’ And he just comes in with everything, elbow straight to my tooth.”
Foster, 41, was not at all impressed with Hojlund after hearing the story and didn’t hold back on his assessment as he insisted the striker should have “taken it easy” considering it was just a training session.

The ex-United goalkeeper responded: “Cheers Rasmus, appreciate that. That’s rubbish that. I’m not having that, it’s poor.
“When you’re doing it in a bit of practice set-piece thing, you’ve got to take it easy. You can’t go full blooded like that.”
However, Hermansen defended Hojlund and insisted he is a real “professional”.
The Danish shot stopper replied: “He is that kind of guy and I love that about him.
“He’s giving everything, always. He’s just got an exceptional way of being a professional.”

Lance Stroll talks superstitions and his fashion evolution
Lance Stroll is the first person to admit his sense of style has come a long way since he joined the Formula 1 grid almost a decade ago. The 25-year-old Aston Martin Racing driver, whose resume includes three podiums from more than 160 race starts, was a self-confessed “sweatpants and t-shirt guy” in the early years of his career.
Although he’s still a fan of relaxed silhouettes and laid-back ensembles, it’s clear he’s taken some cues from his dad, fashion mogul turned F1 team owner, Lawrence Stroll. “I’ve always been around good taste in fashion,” Lance told Motorsport at BOSS’ Austin store ahead of the US Grand Prix. “I’ve been taught to have an eye for what looks good.”

Lawrence made his billions working with the likes of Ralph Lauren, Michael Kors and Tommy Hilfiger, cementing his place in the fashion industry. Stroll Sr. became such a staple of the business that in 2004, he was selected by Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour to co-chair the Met Gala — an honour that was recently bestowed upon Lewis Hamilton, who will co-chair the 2025 event.
“Maybe I’d attend down the line,” Lance said when asked whether he has any interest in the glitzy New York City soirée. “I’m thinking more about race cars right now,” he added.
As for his on-track clothing, the Canadian revealed he has some long-held superstitions surrounding his boots, gloves and even underwear.
“You’re going to be pretty grossed out, but I try to drag [my racing boots] out for a whole season,” he said.
“They get more comfortable over time as they’re broken-in but there’s an element of superstition in there, too. If you have a good race during the season you kind of want to hang onto the boots and the gloves,” he said.
“I had lucky underwear for a bit, but that’s when I was eight years old and then I got to 13 or 14 and they started getting tight so I had to give up that superstition.”
