Kamshybek Bisenbaevich Kunkabaev Born November 18, 1991 is a 6'3 Cruiserweight with a 3-0 3 KO's record. Born in and fighting out of Kyzylorda, Kazakhstan. Kunkabayev only turned pro in August of 2020 and he is not messing around, he's already fought thrice and he stopped all three of his opponents. However, one of them is teak tough never been stopped Sergey Radchenko, who's fought a whole slew of big to decent punchers like Glowacki, Egorov, Balski, Cieslak, and arguably deserved wins over Szpilka and Glowacki, he dropped him and forced a corner stoppage. The other two are quality as well, his fellow Kazakh Akberbayev has only been stopped once against solid puncher Tishchenko, KBK got rid of him in 2 rounds, walking right through him. The other being Server Emurlaev, who'd never been stopped in 24 matches and only lost once to Kashtanov, which is nothing to be ashamed of, Kamshybek battered him to a 6th round stoppage. While he wasn't a stellar amateur, he was above average, picking up a silver medal at the 2017 and 2019 World Championships, with wins over Jalalov, and Sour. Yeah, he got stopped three times as an amateur, but he was quite young, and it was to Usyk and twice to Majidov, which is no big deal. While his style isn't all that special, he's just solid all around. He's a southpaw, he's methodical, has decent defense, he methodically cuts off the ring rather well. he's rangy, has a heavy jab, a fast straight and looping left, nice right hook, and his whipping left hook to the body is ghoulish. He's big, he looks mean, he's scary, he's driven, he's not messing around and he's taking no prisoners. Check Out Kunkabayev ruthlessly conking people upside their craniums.

Not sure, I can't find it listed anywhere. Although judging by looking, his reach looks fine for Cruiserweight, a move up to Heavyweight it might be problematic for him/
Looks solid. Good form and punches with some bad intentions without getting sloppy. A lefty too. Will be interesting to keep an eye on. Missed seeing these fighter preview for a while glad you did this.
Interesting that he's fighting professionally as a Cruiser but has qualified for the Olympics & will be fighting there as a Super Heavy. Based on that, he could become a future candidate for Bridgerweight immortality. I also reckon he's looking forward to eating bacon & eggs for breakfast while the Olympics are on. I was looking forward to seeing this bloke fight Justis Huni in the semi-final of the Asian & Oceania Olympic qualifying tournament but he officially withdrew as the fighters were supposed to enter the ring. So he left it very late to pull out for someone with an injury. Huni had pulled out of a fight against him in the semi-final of the 2019 World Amateur Championships with an illness. I reckon he was hoping Huni would pull out again which is why he left it so late. I'm hoping he's in Huni's half of the draw when the Olympics are on & that they both make it through to the semi-finals before they meet. It's a match-up that's been a long time coming. I think the Kazakh is beatable, but his vast experience & talent make him a valuable opponent for Huni irrespective of the result.
Looks that he does have only 3 pro fights under belt. He might improve further. Usyk for example reached peak after some 9-10 pro fights. like enough experience and still then was not too old. Usually boxers with 10 pro fights are more " polished " than with 3 pro fights under belt etc.
I don't see him getting beaten as a pro any time soon. I also expect him to be the #2 seed in the Super Heavy division at the Olympics so he'll be favoured to make the final. Like I said though, I think he's beatable if the opponent is good enough.
do you think he will compete at the Olympics? Looks he already moved in pro ranks. Everyone is beatable. Look at the Frazier vs Foreman I fight or Liston vs Ali or 1 st fight Frazier vs Ali. underdogs had won these fights.
Don't see what the point of him qualifying for the Olympics was if he doesn't go. He'll be there I'm sure. Plenty of blokes who have qualified for the Olympics have launched professional careers on account of the Olympics getting delayed. Professionals were allowed to compete regardless, it's just that most countries didn't send them.
Thank you, and yeah, they've been fewer and farther between, but I've been trying to pick up the output a little over the last 3 or 4 months or so.
