Fight overview
Janibek Alimkhanuly (16-0, 11 COs) is back on the home field to defend his IBF and WBO middleweight titles against a man who has never heard the most fans: Anauel Ngamissengue (14-0, 9 COs). This battle goes down in Astana, Kazakhstan, a little homecoming for January. He is now 31 and lives in Oxnard, California, but Kazakhstan is always going to be his home.
But here’s the agreement: Box fans scratch their heads over Ngamissengue. Why? Because the man is somehow a complete unknown, rank of 7 by the IBF, and his resume looks like a dumpster fire. A 29-year-old Southpaw with power? Sure. But he barely fought for someone to mention. He was watched by every decent middleweight, so now Janibek gets him. It is an “we will take someone at this point”.
