“Shiraz (21-0, 17 KOs) will face Adames (24-1, 18 KOs) as part of the grand card of Turki Al Sheikh on February 22 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. If Shiraz wins this fight, there will be significant interest in a matchup between him and Janibek (16-0, 11 KOs), whom many fans regard as the king of the middleweight division.
It’s hard to imagine that Hamza would agree to fight Janibek if he secures the WBC title, as he would then be offered a lucrative bout against Chris Eubank Jr. He likely wouldn’t want to turn that down for a fight against Janibek, where he would probably be the underdog, and in which Alimkhanuly could take advantage of his shaky chin,” the article states.
