Hamzah Sheeraz insists it’s ‘all or nothing’ in his bid to become Britain’s next world champion as he takes Mail Sport behind the scenes ahead of Saudi date with destiny

There are two moments during Mail Sport’s day in camp with Hamzah Sheeraz that encapsulate his journey from a working class kid in East London to an undefeated 25-year-old who is now one win away from becoming the next British world champion.

The first comes shortly after noon at Kite Beach in Dubai, where Sheeraz is gearing up for his daily run in heat exceeding 30 degrees celsius and Kaif, his 14-year-old brother, comes cycling on a hire bike down the boardwalk to drop off his running kit.
