Azim vs Reyes: Fight time, undercard, TV channel, live stream, prediction, latest odds, ring walks tonight

Mom Azim takes the next step in his professional boxing journey in London tonight.

The highly-rated young super-lightweight is looking to go 8-0 as he fights Santos Reyes for the vacant WBA continental belt in a boxxer main event at Wembley Arena.

Azim is one of Britain’s precocious talents, going the distance on his Ed Harrison debut in 2020 before having six consecutive dominant early stoppages, including five in 2022 alone – the most recent a brutal second-round knockout against Rylan Charlton at Alexandra Palace November.

That was followed by a string of three straight first-round demolitions against hopelessly beaten opponents in Michel Daniel Cabral, Anthony Loffet and Connor Marsden, with KOs of Stu Greener and Jordan Ellison also on his tally.

And Slough’s ‘The Assassin’ is an overwhelming favorite to demonstrate that intriguing combination of pure hand speed and raw power once again tonight against Reyes, who is also 12-0 undefeated but has never fought outside of his native Nicaragua.

Azim vs Reyes fight prediction

This is billed as a step up for Azim as Reyes is the only undefeated fighter he has faced in his short pro career so far.

But in reality you can expect another early blitz from a little-known opponent with no away experience as he continues to build his reputation with another quick and no doubt brutal knockout.
