Janibek Alimkhanuly will defend the IBF middleweight world title against unbeaten challenger Andrei Mikhailovich live on Sky Sports on October 4. The world championship clash will be broadcast live on Sky Sports+ starting at 10am on Friday October 4. The bout was previously due to headline a July 13 show at Palms Casino in Las Vegas but was cancelled prior to the pre-fight weigh-in when Janibek was hospitalized due to dehydration.
I will knock him out very quickly!' Janibek, a 2016 Olympian from Kazakhstan, rapidly ascended the middleweight division with key wins over Rob Brant and Hassan N'Dam. In May 2022, he knocked out Danny Dignum to secure the WBO Interim title and was elevated to full champion after Demetrius Andrade vacated the belt. In October 2023, he unified the middleweight titles with a victory over IBF champion Vincenzo Gualtieri, establishing himself as the dominant force in the division.
