Coverage of the weigh-in for Adam Azim vs Sergey Lipinets from Boxpark Wembley.
Adam Azim will take on Sergey Lipinets at the OVO Arena Wembley on Saturday live on Sky Sports.
Fast rising super-lightweight star Azim is ready to move to a new level as he faces a former world champion in Lipinets.
Watch a live of stream of the weigh in.
Azim’s last fight was an emphatic stoppage win over Ohara Davies in October at the Copper Box Arena. The undefeated 22-year-old looked at his best as he dictated the action and dominated Davies from the opening bell, dropping the Londoner in the fifth round before ending the fight in spectacular fashion in the eighth.
Having previously won and defended the European title in rapid time with victories over Franck Petitjean and Enock Poulsen, Azim steps up to world level as he aims to prove he is ready to take on the best in the division.
Lipinets is the former IBF super-lightweight world champion. The Kazakhstan-born fighter captured the IBF belt with a unanimous points win over Akihiro Kondo at the Brooklyn Center in 2017.
The 35-year-old has since established himself as one of the top contenders across the super-lightweight and welterweight divisions with victories over former world champions Lamont Peterson and Omar Figueroa Jr.
Lipinets’ last bout was a fight of the year contender against Azim’s countryman and former gym-mate Robbie Davies Jr. Lipinets scored a unanimous points win over the British boxer in a 10-round thriller, showcasing his power by sending Davies Jr to the canvas once in the fifth round and twice in the eighth.
