Murtazaliev Seeks Title Shot This October | Boxing News
Description
Bakhram Murtazaliev is poised for a major comeback this October, eyeing a shot at IBF junior middleweight champ Josh Kelly — the very fighter who ended his reign in January. After dominating Tim Tszyu to claim the title and surviving a brutal war with Kelly, Murtazaliev remains the mandatory challenger despite losing the belt. A planned eliminator against Brandon Adams fell through due to visa issues, forcing his team to scramble for an opponent stateside. With Kelly holding the leverage of the title and no urgency to fight, Murtazaliev’s promoter calls him “a brutal fight” that few want to take. But Murtazaliev’s ready — he’ll take on anyone willing to step up, determined to reclaim his place atop the division.
