Amaar Akbar is set to face Richard Helm in a six-round super lightweight bout.
Amaar Akbar, known as "The Prodigy", turned pro in February 2021 and has since maintained an unbeaten record of 6 wins with 1 knockout. His last victory was over Christian Lopez Flores, who had a significantly more experienced record. Given Akbar's consistent performance against seasoned fighters, his matchup with Helm presents a likely advantage due to his undefeated streak and progressive career in the same weight class.
Richard Helm began his pro career later in November 2021 and holds a record of 1 win against 38 losses with one draw. His recent loss was against Josh Paladino, a debutant, which marks a challenging phase in Helm’s fighting career. The contrast in their records and Helm’s frequent losses imply that Akbar holds the upper hand in this upcoming fight.
