Ito ay gumawa o buksan para sa Sharif sa rematch sa Matchroom away Pass palabas

 

Kapag 32 taong gulang Aji Sharif naka-propesyonal sa 2013 ipinagkaroon niya ng mataas na pag-asa sa kanyang nag-iisang pagkatalo bilang isang amateur na nanggagaling sa mga kamay ng Olympic Gold Medallist Anthony Joshua.

Nagsimula off ang kanyang mga propesyonal na karera sa magandang fashion sa 3 tuwid na panalo kabilang ang isang pagpapatigil. Ang kanyang ika-apat na propesyonal away ay nakatakda para sa Disyembre 2013 sa isang Goodwin Mga Promosyon Matchroom away pass show kung saan kinuha niya sa 6 paa 9 sa “Giant ang” Imantas Davidaitis. Davidaitis ay hindi naging sa baybayin UK bago katok out Sheffield inaasam-asam David Howe sa dalawang round.

“Ito ay isang labanan ako ay masaya na kumuha ng” Said Sharif. Kailangan ko upang matalo ang mga gusto ng Davidaitis upang ilipat papunta sa antas pamagat toSouthern Lugar. Gayunman 6 linggo bago ang away aking trainer Andy Edge nagpasya na siya na kailangan upang kumuha ng pahinga mula sa pagsasanay at ako ay naiwan na walang isang propesyonal na pagsasanay pagtatatag. Naghahanap pabalik Dapat ko na nakuha out sa paglaban ngunit ako stupidly nagpunta sa pamamagitan dito.” Nagpatuloy Sharif “Mga tao sa paligid sa akin sinubukan upang matulungan ngunit ito lamang ay hindi gumagana”.

Sharif nagpunta sa pamamagitan ng sa pakikipaglaban upang makakuha ng bagsak nang dalawang beses sa unang round at pagkatapos ay nagsisimula tumigil sa pangalawang. “Aking Manager / tagataguyod at ang kanyang pamilya ay mahusay na pagkatapos. Ang lahat ng mga dumating sa aking dressing room at maaari kong makita ang mga ito ay bilang bumahala bilang ako. Ang isang linggo sa ibang pagkakataon nagpunta ako sa opisina Steve at sinabi sa kanya Nais kong isang agarang rematch. Steve ay nag-uurong-sulong sa una upang gawin ito ngunit ito ay pagmamataas. Kailangan ko bang maghiganti pagkawala na ito. Pagkatapos ay nagpunta at nakuha sa akin ang pinakamahusay na kampo ng pagsasanay na kung saan ay nagsiwalat pagkatapos ng paglaban Steve. Ako ay sa pinakamahusay na hugis parehong pisikal at itak ng aking buhay”

Sharif natapos sa pamamagitan ng pagsasabi ng "talagang kailangan ko ng suporta ng bawat isa sa rematch dahil ito ay isang karera gumawa o buksan ang para sa akin".

Sharif ay bumalik sa ilalim ng mga ilaw sa isa pang Matchroom away Pass ipakita bilang siya ay napupunta sa maghiganti ang pagkawala. Walang duda na ito ay isang nakakaintriga undercard pag-aaway na sumusuporta sa Larry Ekundayo v Dale Evans (British welterweyt pamagat taga-alis) Lee Markham v Jahmaine Smyle (Pamagat Ingles Super-Middleweight) at Johnny Garton v Nathan Weiss (Pamagat ng Southern Area welterweyt) clashes.

Nagtatampok din ang palabas ang dating Premiership propesyonal na putbolista Leon McKenzie sa kanyang unang pagbaril pamagat kapag siya ay tumatagal sa Ivan Stupalo mula sa Croatia para sa pamagat International Master Super-Middleweight.

13 fights sa lahat at isa sa mga pinakamahusay na mga card na hindi mainstream tv upang ipakita para sa isang mahabang panahon.
