This time Alimkhanuly locates himself outside his convenience area, facing an established, prepared opposition. Although this is actually Mikhailovich's first match against an outstanding enemy, the stakes are high and also he has whatever to gain. The concern is actually, can he avoid obtaining knocked senseless early? Or may he hurt the champion early to get respect?I think Mikhailovich's ruthless type could possibly trouble Alimkhanuly's counterpunching design, especially due to the fact that Alimkhanuly has only gone the full 12 rounds as soon as in his career. For Mikhailovich, making it through the early arounds and also taking the fight deep will be essential.
