WBO president Gustavo Olivieri <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/OlivieriLaw\/status\/2107895342356136256\" rel=\"nofollow\">announced yesterday<\/a> that \u201cQazaq Style\u201d and fellow top contender Jacob Bank had \u201creached terms to contest the vacant WBO Super Middleweight World Championship.\u201d Bank\u2019s manager <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ringmagazine\/status\/2107913439041445956\" rel=\"nofollow\">tells Mike Coppinger<\/a> that the two will meet \u201cin December in Copenhagen, Denmark.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">For those unfamiliar with Bank, he\u2019s a genuine threat to Alimkhanuly, the furthest thing from an easy entry into the division. The 25-year-old Dane <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ATokkers5\/status\/2102532093947384057\" rel=\"nofollow\">put a beating on former Canelo foe William Scull last year<\/a> and will be facing Alimkhanuly at the latter\u2019s most vulnerable, with lingering questions about his post-PED performance on the heels of a career-long layoff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">This one will presumably land on DAZN, which has hosted Bank\u2019s biggest fights so far and partners with Janibek\u2019s team at Top Rank.
