Hamzah Sheeraz joins Darren Barker on First Round TV for his most honest, raw and revealing interview yet.

From growing up without a father figure to working as an apprentice electrician at 15 just to help his family eat, Hamzah opens up about the pressure, pain, and sacrifice behind his rise through boxing. He shares the emotional aftermath of his controversial draw with Carlos Adames, the brutal silence that followed, and the people who turned their backs when the wins stopped.

Hamzah reflects on what it really takes to reach the top, how the wrong people nearly derailed his career, and why he’s now rebuilt his mindset, team, and weight class under new trainer Andy Lee. He talks captaincy at Riyadh’s 5v5, facing the toughest puncher he’s ever been in with, and chasing greatness at 168lbs — with Edgar Berlanga next, and Canelo in his sights.

This is the untold story of Britain’s most exciting middleweight contender.

🎙 Topics include:

• Growing up in East London without a dad
• Working to support his mum at age 15
• The Adames fight and post-fight backlash
• Taking full accountability for defeat
• Why he changed trainers and moved to 168lbs
• Life-changing moments inside and outside the ring
• Being captain at the Riyadh 5v5
• His relationship with His Excellency
• Faith, pressure, and boxing’s brutal truths
• Canelo aspirations and redemption
