    If anyone? Looks really strong at MW, for someone with only 14 fights he's taken apart some decent opposition already.....his last 5 wins would look good on fighters resume who was 25-0.

    Decent might be a reach. Bek probably won't get credit for any real foes in the future. 160 has been a mess, and will continue to be a duckers wasteland.

    That's the thing. He's already 30 with a lot of amateur miles on the odometer.

    Also he doesn't have a natural built-in fan base here in the States, I think he'll age out before he gets many opportunities.

    Agreed. Bek will get GGG criticism. Do you know his purse from last night?

    Can we please not refer to Janibek as ''Bek'' because that will only create confusion given that's what Bektemir Melikuziev (aka Bek The Bully is) is known as

    And they're both deep Eurasian brothers too so it'll just start making things unnecessarily confusing for all of us and no one wants to see that

    Thanks guys I really do appreciate it

    I thought maybe Beck the singer was at MW now.

    Yea middleweight has been in the dumps for a while. Sucks because it’s historically so rich in talent. Seeing Janibek last night sparked some interest but no one is gonna fight him. He beats anyone on op’s list if they were to fight right now.

    Most people know the difference considering OP mentioned Janibek in the thread title ;)

    I doubt any will have the stones to face him. He has already said he will not fight GGG out of respect for the man who paved the way for Khazakstan fighters.

    They may well do in this particular thread but the minority who don't will then unwittingly spread this seed of confusion so to speak to other threads, other forums, and the wider world in general and that seed will grow into a giant tree of confusion and before you know it the tree will be one of many in huge forest of confusion.

    And whilst both are deep Eurasian brothers Janibek hails from Kazakhstan whereas Bek The Bully hails from Uzbekistan and Bek in Kazakh is actually a very offensive insult.

    Looking at that list of middleweights is discouraging,
