Bentley set to tackle Alimkhanuly in Las Vegas on November 12 – British Boxing BBTV

In response to reputable boxing website BoxingScene, Kazakhstan’s Janibek Alimkhanuly will tackle Battersea’s Denzel Bentley in defence of his WBO middleweight title in Las Vegas on November twelfth. Oscar Valdez was initially set to headline the present however was pressured to tug out via a ‘non-boxing associated damage’.

Alimkhanuly was upgraded to full champion by the WBO following former champion Demetrius Andrade‘s latest trip of the title, and can tackle one other British fighter in his second consecutive bout in what would be the first defence of his recently-acquired title. The twenty-nine-year-old, who boasts eight knockouts in twelve skilled outings to this point, disposed of Essex’s Danny Dignum in two rounds 4 months in the past and can look to claim related authority over present British middleweight champion Bentley.

The latter impressed with himself with a fourth-round stoppage of Marcus Morrison final Friday at York Corridor and, whereas he has not fought wherever close to on the stage of ‘Kazakh Type’ Alimkhanuly, main credit score needs to be afforded for combating a person who the vast majority of fighters on the high stage at 160lbs shrink back from.

The venue in Vegas has not but been decided on the time of writing.
