3734Aman Konisbekov, originally from Uzbekistan, secured a bronze medal at the 2024 Kazakhstan Boxing Championship while representing the Turkestan region.
In the quarterfinals, competing in the up-to-71 kg weight category, Konisbekov faced off against Almas Kusherbayev from the Aktobe region. Konisbekov claimed a decisive victory by unanimous decision, advancing to the semifinals and guaranteeing himself at least a bronze medal.
Despite his Uzbek origins, Konisbekov chose to represent Kazakhstan this year, competing under its flag.
Previously, in November 2023, during the semifinals of the Uzbekistan Boxing Championship, Konisbekov faced world champion Asadkhodja Moydinkhodjayev. Although Konisbekov knocked out Moydinkhodjayev in the first round, he ultimately lost by a controversial decision after three rounds.
