The scheduled Adam Azim vs. Gustavo Lemos clash on January 31 in London has been postponed, with a sequence of training-camp injuries ultimately forcing the entire event off the calendar.
First, Gustavo Lemos suffered a hand injury during camp, ruling him out of the original booking. Promoters moved quickly to secure a replacement opponent, reportedly Nahir Albright, in an effort to keep the date intact. However, the plans unraveled days later when Adam Azim sustained a hand injury of his own during his final sparring session.
With neither the original main event nor its replacement viable, the decision was made to postpone the entire card.
The eliminator bout will now be rescheduled for a later date in 2026, with updated plans to be announced in due course by Boxxer.
Sources have indicated that there was brief discussion about salvaging the night by elevating undercard bouts to headline status, but those plans have not moved forward. As things stand, the Copper Box Arena show is postponed in its entirety.
