Press Release: October 3, 2024 By Lee McLaughlan - 3rd October 2024, Houston, TX – Long-time boxing manager Bobby Harrison aims to supercharge Houston’s boxing scene after securing his promoter’s license. Harrison, who has a strong stable of boxing talent including Houston’s current NABF middleweight champion Marquis ‘Marvelous’ Taylor and Jr lightweight contender Eridson Garcia, applied for the license after becoming frustrated at seeing his world class fighters denied major bouts. Taylor and Garcia, both 30, are his prize assets and Harrison feels both boxers should be given the chance to have world title bouts in 2025.

Harrison, who owns the city’s Legions Training Complex, is now looking at potential venues, dates and opponents so the duo can catch the eye of boxing’s sanctioning bodies. Given Houston’s sporting pedigree, Harrison definitely wants to add some bloc...

The 160lb. Middleweight division has been one that has gradually moved on from an era largely dominated by former two-time Middleweight world champion Gennady Golovkin and towards a period of ongoing transition. A transition that to date has no finish date as no fighter has yet emerged as the division’s next central figure. One fighter that has been making a strong case for himself, however, is current unified WBO/IBF Middleweight world champion Janibek Alimkhanuly. Alimkhanuly, a native of Zhilandy, Kazakhstan, is in many ways viewed as Golovkin’s unofficial successor. Not only are both Golovkin and Alimkhanuly, Kazakhstan natives, but like Golovkin, Alimkhanuly established himself off of an ability to score quick and often devastating knockouts. Unbeaten in fifteen professional fights, Alimkhanuly has scored knockouts in ten of those bouts registering a current career knockout percentage of nearly 67%. While not quite at the same degree as what this observer often called “A Path Of D...
