Comments Thread For: Arum: Janibek Alimkhanuly is The Next Middleweight Superstar

[hhh1200]

It's possible but honestly he's gonna need a nickname like ggg.

The Great Janibek > Munguia, GGG, Canelo, Big Charlo, and BJS. More Brand for a 10+ year veteran to fight the Great Janibek vs. an opponent who leads to a Canelo mando even though the promotional brand which plays his bills said they weren't interested in the Great Janibek b/c they fight led to nowhere.

He'll gain a lot of fans if he continues to fight over matched opponents. He was definitely less exhilarating against N'Dam and Brant.

Boxing isn't going to produce stars at all is the reality.

Fixed that for you lol

Yeah this dude is nothing to write home about. Solid, but just food for an elite mw

Disagree. He IS an elite middleweight. I doubt he has the potential GGG had, but very, very few fighters do. He reminds me a bit of Dmitry Pirog.

He made me into a fan somewhere along his last three fights. I never liked GGG but I'll support this guy over a dud like Andrade. I was actually anticipating to see Janibek again since his last fight. I never ever anticipated an Andrade fight. His skill level is okay but he's a forward fighter, a killer. I used to like Mr. Kovalev for that same reason. GGG has always been a hypejob to me.

Janibek is a good guy.

Superstar? Not seeing it. That's a pipe dream. No.
I'll support him. I don't mind seeing him starch Andrade next.

[BoxingIsGreat]

Now, Arum can screw himself. He makes me root against his fighters sometimes.

[BoxingIsGreat]

He'd certainly destroy a nonentity like Munguia.

Ok your support isn’t what these fighters fight for. Andrade is a long time champ, so you go for the Russian/ Kazakh all you want, when he gets to the top level he’ll be proven below elite. Just watch.

I didn't mean to say he's the greatest or anything, but I'd rather watch this guy any day than Andrade. There's a certain level of 'slickness' I can't handle.

How did Dignum get rated at all? You could find better competition in the audience. An absolute boxing bum that needs to retire now and take up a modeling career. That was disgraceful and a sham of a match. Nothing learned here about JA outside of the fact that he can knockout a European shill boxer. The WBO should be fined for Dignum’s rating.

I was wondering this myself, he seems to be in the Peter McNeely realm of top 10 fighters.
