    Belief is at an all-time high for middleweight boxer Andrei Mikhailovich ahead of his world title fight against IBF champion Janibek Alimkhanuly in Sydney next month


    The rescheduled bout on October 4 comes after the Kazakh pulled out of the original fight in July due to dehydration.

    Mikhailovich is confident he can get the job done after facing off with the world champ in Las Vegas.
