Pursuing the Absolute Title: The Ambition of Janibek Alimhanuly

Janibek Alimkhanuly, the current World middleweight champion by WBO and IBF versions, is not content with just two belts. The 27-year-old Kazakh boxer has set his sights on becoming a champion in all four versions, a feat that he admits will not come easy.

"I don't see easy wins in my pursuit of becoming a champion in all four versions," Alimkhanuly said. But he remains undeterred, hoping to raise the Kazakh flag and make history by achieving this goal.

Alimkhanuly, who goes by the nickname "Qazaq Style," symbolizes a style that combines technique, cold calculation, and spectacular combinations. This boxing style is based on endurance, discipline, and character, according to the champion.

His nickname is a representation of Kazakhstan, emphasizing that the country has its own unique boxing style. Alimkhanuly believes that the path to the top requires risk, patience, persistence, and immense willpower.

In his last fight in April, Alimkhanuly knocked out Anouar Almaghni in the fifth round. His next ring appearance has not been announced yet, but he is scheduled to fight Vincenzo Gualtieri in the night from Saturday to Sunday (German time), according to the latest reports.

However, Alimkhanuly's quest for unification has not been without controversy. He has criticized WBC champion Carlos Adames for his unwillingness to face him, expressing his frustration about Adames' reluctance on Twitter.

Despite this, Alimkhanuly is not one to give up halfway in his quest. He wants to unify all belts and become the undisputed champion, a dream that he is determined to make a reality.

As of now, there is no information available about a new challenge or dream fight for Alimkhanuly. But one thing is certain - the Kazakh boxer is not one to back down from a fight. Whether it's in the ring or in his pursuit for boxing history, Alimkhanuly is ready to conquer any peak.
