April fifth, headlining at Barys Arena in Astana with live coverage on ESPN+. IBF & WBO middleweight titles at stake, in Alimkhanuly's second and third defense respectively. Ngammissengue has barely fought at the MW limit recently, but here we are. The unbeaten Congolese-Frenchman is somehow top 15 in both organizations (IBF #7 and WBO #13). The southpaw champ is 16-0 with 11 kayos, and stands 5′ 11½″. The orthodox challenger is 14-0 with 9 kayos, and stands 5′ 9½″. Ngamissengue is two years Alimkhanuly's junior, and has been a pro three years less.

This card is apparently also airing on Disney+ as well as ESPN+ ...if you are an ESPN+ subscriber. Sort of confused by that, because if you subscribe to ESPN+ what's the point of being able to watch it on Disney+ ...? Also when did ESPN stop simulcasting boxing cards on their real TV stations (ESPN & ESPN2) and relegate the sport to streaming app only?
