Fight Prediction

Tim Rickson, BBN Editor: "Claggett is a s tough as they come, able to withstand big shots from Teofimo Lopez for 12 rounds, and he is an intense, durable, relentless pressure-fighter, so I do believe he will bring the heat to Azim.

"Adam is as slick and speedy as they come, reminiscent of Amir Khan. His handspeed is frightening, his feet are clever and quick, his judgement of range is masterful; I truly believe he is one of the UK's brightest prospects right now.

"He has scored a knockout in all five of his 12-round championship contests, mostly in the second half. Although everything about Claggett points to a 12-round fight, I personally trust Azim to get the job done inside the distance. Because Claggett is going to be there, standing in front of him, walking into shots.

"I would bet on Azim to win in rounds 7-12."
