Jevgenijs Aleksejevs (born 6 July 1993) is a Latvian professional boxer and former kickboxer. He fights in the middleweight division and is undefeated after 17 fights.
Early life and amateur career
He began his combat career in kickboxing, where he won several titles. Aleksejevs was the European Kickboxing Champion in 2008 and the Baltic K-1 Champion 2010, but a serious leg fracture forced him to change to boxing.
Professional career
After overcoming his leg fracture, Aleksejevs began training to become a professional boxer and made his debut in 2013, beating compatriot Mareks Kovalevskis by knockout in the first round.
He has also beaten Latvian Valērijs Mikalauskas, Frenchman Maurice Possiti, Argentinian Nicolas "Mazazo" Veron, and experienced Estonian fighter Pavel Semjonov.
Aleksejevs is known for his counterpunching ability and has been recognized for his fast hands and technical skills. He often dominates his opponents in mid-to-later rounds and has been tipped as one of the fastest rising stars in European boxing.
