The WBO super middleweight title fight between Hamzah Sheeraz and Janibek Alimkhanuly is officially set after Queensberry Promotions won the purse bid with over a million dollars. Top Rank bid lower, and dates are locked in for November 28 or December 5, with London or New York as possible venues. Janibek’s camp, led by manager Egis Klimas, is hyping it as the “Best Fight of the Year,” challenging Sheeraz to step up. But Sheeraz questions the bid amount and raises concerns about Janibek’s mandatory status, citing his past VADA suspension. The payout splits at roughly $750K for Sheeraz and $250K for Janibek — a hefty sum but possibly less than Sheeraz hoped. Now, it’s up to Sheeraz to accept the terms and finalize the details — will this truly be the fight of the year?
