“Wonderful News”: The announcement of Murtazaliev’s cryptic struggle

Bakhram Murtazaliev, IBF Junior IBF champion of heavy weight, says he has “Wonderful news” Entering for his next struggle. Judging by enthusiasm by the unbeaten Murtazaliev (23-0, 17 kos), is an important struggle.

Fans hope the good news for Bakhram is unification against Terence Crawford or Sebastian Fundora, but it is unlikely. It is certain to assume that these two champions of 154 pounds want nothing to do with the fight against Murtazaliev next to or never. It is too dangerous for either of them.

Logical options for Murtazaliev’s next struggle:

– Erickson’s Lube
– Josh Kelly
– Serhii Bohachuk
– Charles Conwell

Murtazaliev said he would be willing to go to 160 for an interesting struggle if he cannot get a unified match at 154. The middle weight division is quite empty right now and has few options.

Crawford focuses on fighting Canelo Alvarez for a giant day of payment in 168. Even if it weren’t, I would not want to do with Murtazaliev after what he did to the former Wbo champion, Tim Tszyu. He destroyed him in three rounds on October 19 in a four -time victory in Orlando, Florida.

This victory was, much, the largest of Murtazaliev’s career, as the other champions and the best contestants have been ignored and avoided. The ex -champion of 1540 pounds, Jermell Charlo, never wanted to fight him and for a good reason. Would have ended in the same shoes as Tszyu.

Surprisingly, 32-year-old Murtazaliev was not included in Turki Al-Shiekh card in Riyadh. A struggle between Murtazaliev and Vergil Ortiz Jr. It would have been more interesting than his confrontation scheduled against the recent one who struck the Middle Weight Champion of WBA, Israil Madrimov, on the card.

This would have been a much more dangerous struggle for Vergil than Madrimov, who does not go to the attack as Murtazaliev does. However, Ortiz Jr. He had the option of choosing his opponent for this card and wanted Madrimov.
