SEOBROTHERS ambassador Jevgenijs Aleksejevs crowned IBF Europe Middleweight boxing champion

Reading Time: < 1 minute
Latvian boxer and SEOBROTHERS ambassador Jevgenijs “The Hurricane” Aleksejevs has captured the IBF Europe Middleweight title, defeating Poland’s Przemysław Zyśk in a commanding performance at the KOK 127 World Series event, held on Saturday night at the Xiaomi Arena in Riga.
The victory continues Aleksejevs’ unbeaten streak and marks his second major title. In September 2024, the 32-year-old claimed the IBO European Middleweight belt.
Eugene Ravdin, Head of PR at SEOBROTHERS, said: “Congratulations to Jevgenijs and all the team behind him. This title took an awful lot of effort from an awful lot of people. We’re proud of Jevgenijs. Winning the IBF Europe title confirms his place among Europe’s top middleweights.”
Aleksejevs dictated the pace from the opening bell, targeting the body and mixing in precise combinations. Zyśk, known for his resilience and inconvenient style, attempted to disrupt Aleksejevs’ rhythm through frequent clinches, but struggled to find momentum.
As the fight progressed, Aleksejevs showcased his technical versatility — alternating between body and head attacks, using sharp uppercuts, and controlling the distance.
The final rounds saw the Polish fighter pushing for a knockout, but Aleksejevs’ composure and defense ensured a decisive finish. The judges delivered a unanimous decision: 100-89, 99-90, and 98-91, all in favour of Aleksejevs.
Aleksejevs said: “To be honest, I got sick a day before the fight – I didn’t tell anyone, but I felt like I was run over by a truck. Still, to stand here now as European champion is incredible.”
“In the first round, I landed some good shots, but then I decided to slow down and not waste too much energy. My opponent is a tough, tricky boxer. Even though I wasn’t at my best physically, I stuck to the plan and it worked.”
