General
PRO DEBUT
In August 2020 he made his professional boxing debut with a second round stoppage win over compatriot Issa Akberbayev at the MTK Fight Night in Almaty, Kazakhstan. "To win a gold medal at the Olympics, you need to beat your opponents in such a way as to be a cut above them. If equal battles come out, then there is no one to blame - I will only blame myself for not being a cut above. Therefore, I try to take useful things from professional boxing in order to be better in amateur boxing. Despite having a good start in professional boxing, I will not leave amateur boxing until I become an Olympic champion." (olympic.kz, 24 Aug 2020; sports.kz, 17 Aug 2020)

CAPTAIN
In January 2019 his teammates elected him to be captain of the Kazakhstani national men's boxing team. "This is a huge responsibility for me. I believe that I should be an example for boxers. We will go forward together, we will work and defend the honour of Kazakhstan. This is our main task." (olympic.kz, 04 Dec 2020; kfb.kz, 11 Jan 2019)
