His style has been likened to Vasyl Lomachenko and Floyd Mayweather Jr., as he works off angles, has an incredible defense, and has a deadly balance in both hands.

I know they will guide me to the pros by working with my leadership team, and they will also produce the best welterweights in the professional ranks from Kazakhstan.
