WBO/IBF middleweight champion Janibek Alimkhanuly (16-0, 11 KOs) responded to the statement made by WBC titleholder in his weight class, Dominican Carlos Adames (24-1-1, 18 KOs), as reported by Sports.kz.
On the night of February 22-23, Adames ended up in a controversial draw with British fighter Hamza Shiraz (21-0-1, 17 KOs), thus retaining his championship belt. Carlos felt that this result was enough to declare himself undefeated: “Without a doubt, I am a fighter who takes on challenges. I see no one in middleweight or super middleweight who could stop me,” he posted on his social media account X.
“Wake up this businessman!” was Janibek's comment on Adames' post.

It should be noted that after Carlos Adames' fight with Hamza Shiraz, "Kazakh style" labeled the Dominican boxer a coward and promised to knock him out.
