Pleasure to hear Sajid Abid’s story tonight. Working for the NHS, coaching AND forging a professional career with an English title fight in the near future is very impressive. I spoke to him and his cousin Ifran Khalid tonight. (Yes he is a Rams fan) Well worth a listen 👇

Lovely to be back home fighting in derby, can’t wait for the next. Thank you everyone for the support 👊🏽

Always a pleasure to talk with Sajid Abid - a man who talks the truth! We spoke about his homecoming, the English title next, boxing & social media, and so much more! Give it a watch!! @slothboxx youtu.be/WNFGOe22GUg

Our sports presenter Dominic Dietrich is spending the next five weeks trying to cut weight like a boxer. 🥊 He’s working with Derby University and professional boxer Sajid Abid to try to get down from 85kg to 76kg by August 11th.

Big thank you to University of Derby and Sajid Abid for helping me on this challenge! It’s something I’ve always been fascinated by in combat sports so to explore it in Boxing is going to be really insightful.

🚨New fight announcement Sajid Abid fights Denis Denikaev for the English Super lightweight title on the Box Mania show 🧨 What a show this is going to be. 🎟️Limited tickets remain 23/09/23 | York Hall

National World has recently launched DerbyWorld so where better a place than to feature Derby boxer and KING OF THE KEBAB Sajid Abid: derbyworld.co.uk/sport/derby-bo…

It’s been some journey leading up to this moment where I fight to become champion of England. 23rd September we head back to York hall to my opponents home town as we’ve done before. This time it’s for the belt! Tickets are on sale so dm me for yours! Thank you everyone

As they say, a minor set back for a big comeback. I’ve come a long way from where I was 5 years ago and will continue to push forward as I know what I’m capable of. The better man won on the night no excuses but I’ll be back stronger as I’ve proven in the past. Thank you to all💙

Blessed 💙

I wanted to do something to raise money to support the ongoing humanitarian effort in Gaza. Having seen that a lap of Gaza is approximately 100km, it only felt right to challenge myself to cover that distance within 24hours. gofund.me/61acbbc9

Last night I completed the 100km starting at 8pm Saturday and finishing at 7.20pm Sunday through the night without sleep. All for a great cause, everyone who took part where they can and everyone who made the donations you absolutely smashed it 🫡

Imagine……. Sandy Ryan Zach HorribleHarryScarff and Sajid Abid fighting at Pride Park Stadium…… Joey Greener The Public Eye and other local musicians in between fights!! Derby County have been pro…..not jinxing it Some night!! Derby County #dcfc #dcfcfans
