What time is Azim Vs Reyes this Saturday on Sky Sports?
Adam Azim took on the undefeated Santos Reyes in today’s pre-match official press conference ahead of this Saturday night’s BOXXER Showdown at Wembley OVO Arena, broadcast live and exclusive in the Kingdom. He’s on Sky Sports.
Saturday is significant for young prodigy Azim, it is his first time topping a major British arena and the first time in his fledgling professional career he has faced an undefeated opponent.
“I am very heavy-handed in both things. I also have speed. If I put the combination together, I can create a devastating performance,” he said today.
“Pressure didn’t come to me because I was train really difficult. I’m very focused and determined to put on a great performance. He’s 12-0 so no kidding, he’s a very persistent fighter. He’s a good fighter and it’s going to be a good game.”

Saturday’s main support match will be an intriguing clash between America’s flashy Anthony Sims and London’s Zak Chelli.
“I will arrest him [with] a good guy and I’ll take him down,” said Chelli, before telling the Americans: “I fight tough opponents, you fight unknowns. Good dancer… I don’t see any aggression and that’s what I’ll bring on Saturday.”
Sims replied, “The boxing I know is way ahead of you. On Saturday you will find out. You will be my next victim.
Another worthy contest on the bill would be Tyler Denny’s English middleweight defense against Brad Pauls.
The respect between the two was evident during Wednesday’s press conference. “Tyler has made his name at this level,” said the challenger. “It’s time for me to step up, take my shot and show what I’m doing.
“We can both dig deep if we need to.
“I just think the styles would combine well for a good fight.”
Victory takes the winner to the British title. “There is so much to gain from this war. My toughest opponent is not yet but we’ll see what I can do,” Pauls said.
“I just think I’m better,” Denny said. “He clearly thinks he is better than me. We’ll find out Saturday.
“I think it will be the battle of the night. We’ve both come to win, we’re both hungry warriors.
“He is an entertaining boxer, my last three fights have been entertaining. It has fireworks written on it.”
In contrast, the animosity between Viddal Riley and his rival on Saturday Anees Taj was immediately apparent.
“I don’t think he’s my toughest opponent,” Riley said, a comment to which Taj reacted immediately.
“I know you’re about to win,” Riley continued. “It is scheduled for eight rounds, this is my first round of eight. But I don’t think I’ll do eight on Saturday.
“Of course you won’t,” Taj interrupted again, “because you will be stopped within six hours. I know I’m in your head.
Riley shows no signs of doubt though. “My guess,” he insisted, “is that you don’t see round four.”
