After performing almost too well against Tim Tszyu in 2024, Bakhram Murtazaliev has gotten nowhere near the leading names in the 154lbs division and has had to wait for a willing contender.

Bakhram is a interesting style for all these top guys. He is not a come forward brawler or he is a boxer with heavy hands. If you watch his fights he actually looks a lot like Kovalev. They have very similiar styles. I'm really interested how he fights Kelly as Kelly struggled with C level pressure fighters and struggled is an understatement.
I wouldn't be suprised if Bakhram just patiently boxes him. But maybe he fell in love with the boogeyman hype and he goes in for the kill right away, which could be very ******.
I think Bakhram can box Kelly and still win the rounds but who knows.
Murtazaliev has elite fundamentals but Tzsyu is the type of fighter that allowed Murt to apply the power game. I think Murt will struggle with a someone like Ennis who brings more movement to the ring.
I see Boots forcing Murt to reset repeatedly untli a crashing counter starts the downfall of Murt.
