Janibek Alimkhanuly posted on social media today and asked Turki Alalshikh to help make a unification between him and the WBC middleweight champion Carlos Adames will take place on November 22 in Riyadh.
The IBF and WBO 160-Pond Champion January (16-0, 12 COs) and Adames (24-1-1, 18 COs) were reportedly negotiated on a unification fight on the 22nd map on Dazn PPV. However, the collision could not happen to Turki who told the magazine Ring that he could not negotiate with Adames, and that he had “had”wasted his time. “
Janibek does not want to give up the fight against Adames, and he hopes Turki can review the negotiations to mediate an agreement possible. Yesterday alimkhnuly Adames shouted “To live in the past” When he placed an old photo of him and Sergiy Derevyanchenko on X.
It is unclear why 31-year-old Adames chose to post a photo of himself and Derevyanchenko from their fight in 2021. This is the distant past, and Adames must move forward with his career.
Maybe we should give him a fight again? I’m sure he will accept your offer with pleasure and a smile this time! I’ll be ready on November 22! @Turki_alshikh Insha Allah in November I have my third title and in May I fight for my fourth title! Unbearable ✅ pic.twitter.com/gxx4wm3p73

At some point, Janibek must forget about Adames and consider him a lost case and continue. It seems quite obvious to people that he is wasting his time. Adames did not show much desire to fight against him.
The price he wants is likely to be out of reach for even Turki to pay for this fight. If the game did happen, it would be on the bottom map of David Banavidez against Anthony Yarde on November 22, and will probably be buried deep in the map in sixth place under these battles:
- David benavidez vs. Anthony Yarde
- Brian Norman jr. Against Devin Haney
- Abdullah Mason vs. Sam Noakes
- Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez against Fernando Martinez
- Artur Bererbiev vs. Deon Nicholson
