Adding one of the most accomplished amateur stars to turn pro in recent times, he joins an unprecedented flood of Kazakh and Uzbek Olympians into the pro ranks (most based in the US). Just debuted on the Jacobs-Sulecki undercard:

DANIYAR YELEUSSINOV http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Daniyar_Yeleussinov

2016 Olympic Gold Medalist, 2015 World Championships Silver, 2013 World Championships Gold...all at 152.

Yet another Uzbekistani Olympian entered the pro ranks this past weekend, debuting on a Lou DiBella undercard at Foxwoods Casino.

BAKHODIR JALALOV http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Bakhodir_Jalolov

He's a 6'6" Heavyweight who won Bronze at the 2015 World Championships and was a Quarterfinalist at the 2016 Rio Games.

Jalolov is the FIFTH member of the 2016 Uzbek Olympic Team to turn pro so far, 4 of them medalists. All 5 of them are based in the US and have fought all their pro bouts in the States so far.

Over 200 amateur fights in Russia it seems, but the record is hard to find. He arrived in Canada and started his pro career in late 2017, he is a friend of Artur Berterbiev.

He has a lot to learn still, but he is big 6'5" and strong. People will hear about him next year when he starts fighting better opponents :bow:

It probably will be cool, if he one day faces Conlan with their Olympic build-up to this.

You nailed it amigo. Bob Arum/Top Rank is an EXPERT at milking controversies to make $$$, so I'm sure he'll do his best to make Conlan-Nikitin happen somewhere down the road, especially if both make impact as top-notch pros!!
