"Denzel Bentley eagerly embraces challenge against Brad Pauls to advance his boxing career"
Denzel Bentley is not your average challenger as he steps into the ring to face Brad Pauls in a high-stakes middleweight showdown this Saturday. The British title and the vacant European belt are on the line, but Bentley has his eyes set on bigger prizes.
With Hamzah Sheeraz opting to challenge WBC middleweight champion Carlos Adames, Bentley has been catapulted to the top spot in the WBO rankings, positioning him as the likely next contender for unified champion Janibek Alimkhanuly. Instead of waiting for the perfect opportunity, Bentley chose to stay active and seize the moment, stating, "I want to be going through the gears. I'm not losing what I've had to work hard to get back."
Known for his explosive power, Bentley is not one to back down from a challenge. His upcoming opponent, Pauls, may have a reputation as a fierce puncher, but Bentley's knockout ability speaks for itself. Their shared history in sparring sessions adds an intriguing layer to their upcoming bout, with Bentley confident in his readiness for whatever Pauls brings to the table.
Looking beyond the immediate fight, Bentley's ultimate goal is a rematch with Alimkhanuly, whom he faced in Las Vegas two years ago. Despite the loss, Bentley gained valuable experience and is determined to even the score. His relentless pursuit of the top spot in the division drives him forward, with a singular focus on reclaiming his British title and securing a shot at the unified champion.
In Bentley's words, "I want Janibek," emphasizing his unwavering commitment to facing the best in the division. His strategy is clear - stay active, keep improving, and never shy away from a challenge. With momentum on his side, Bentley is poised to make a statement in the middleweight division and fulfill his quest for redemption.
