The Kazakhstan boxing team's triumph at the 2025 World Boxing Championships in Liverpool, England, has sent ripples of excitement through the country. The team, led by the President of the National Olympic Committee of Kazakhstan, topped the medal table, with victories in both the men's and women's categories.

The success of Kazakhstan's boxers was warmly welcomed at Shymkent, Astana, and Almaty airports, with citizens eager to celebrate their heroes' achievements. Amidst the festivities, a hint of a potential oura ring return emerged from a familiar figure—Gennady Golovkin.

Golovkin, a renowned Kazakh boxer, has not fought since September 2022. However, after witnessing his compatriots' success, he felt 'itchy' to get back in the ring. In an interview, he hinted at a possible comeback, saying, 'Yeah, why not? I feel my old emotions here.'

Despite the intrigue, Golovkin remained tight-lipped about a potential opponent and timeline for his return, stating that when and with whom it might happen is still a secret. This secretive approach is characteristic of the boxer, who did not reveal any information about his last opponent, Mexican Saúl 'Canelo' Álvarez, in his response.

Golovkin's role in securing boxing's return to the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles is well-documented. Under his leadership as the chairman of the Olympic Commission of World Boxing, the sport will once again take centre stage at the global sports event.

As the dust settles on the 2025 World Boxing Championships, the anticipation for Golovkin's potential return to the ring continues to grow. While details remain scarce, one thing is certain—the Kazakhstan boxing team's triumph has reignited the passion for the sport in the hearts of its fans, especially with the upcoming paralympics 2024.
