HAMZAH SHEERAZ HAS sustained a perforated ear drum in training and, therefore, his scheduled middleweight fight against Liam Williams at the Copper Box Arena has been postponed until early in 2024 from its original date of December 2.
Queensberry Promotions are currently in the process of securing a new date from the venue.
The remainder of the original December 2 Copper Box card featuring Gavin Gwynne, Sam Noakes, Raven Chapman and Brad Strand will now perform at York Hall on Friday December 1, along with up-and-coming heavyweight star Moses Itauma.
