Janibek Alimkhanuly vs Andrei Mikhailovich on July 13th

Wouldn’t be surprised if Mikhailovich beats him, yes, no one’s heard of him, but he’s very good at setting up punches at range, can walk you onto punches and has great timing and is very relaxed on the outside.

 

Janibek does all of those things too but does them better than Andrei does. They’re the same height though and Andrei does have the longer reach so it could be a tough fight for Janibek but I don’t think Andrei will be the guy to beat him. He’s just too good for that to happen imo.

 

He’s not as rangey, doesn’t use his length as much, isn’t as good at setting up and countering with long, extended punches.

 

Not long now until New Zealand takes control of the world Middleweight division.

This could make up for them failing to qualify anyone for the Olympics. Man down!

 

Mikhailovich looks pretty good. Might be interesting, we'll see

 

Nursultanov is very good. Hope he gets a shot soon.
