Mourad Aliev

Mourad Aliev is a French heavyweight known for his imposing height, southpaw stance and power-packed finishing rate. Nicknamed the “White Wolf,” Aliev fights out of Nice, France, though he was born in Moscow, Russia. At 201 cm he has established himself as a marquee domestic figure in the European heavyweight scene and is the current WBC International Silver heavyweight champion. Aliev turned professional in Hamburg on November 20, 2021, scoring a unanimous decision over German Skobenko in his debut. He built momentum through 2022 with a string of stoppage wins and accumulated rounds experience, including second-round TKOs of Đorđe Tomić and Mirko Tintor and a stoppage at the end of round six over Džemal Bosnjak. That November he stepped up to ten rounds to capture the vacant WBC Mediterranean heavyweight title with a fifth-round KO/TKO of Yakup Sağlam, his first title success as a pro. A year later Aliev won the vacant WBC International Silver heavyweight belt on February 4, 2023, when he stopped Ali Kiydin in the ninth. He defended that belt in September 2023 with a decision over Evgenios Lazaridis and added further defences in 2024, stopping Dilan Prašović in May and Davide Brito in December while remaining active across cards in Germany. Aliev’s only professional defeat came on June 7, 2025, when he lost a unanimous decision to Labinot Xhoxhaj in a 12-round title fight contested for the EBU (European) heavyweight title and the WBC International Silver belt. That loss cost him the WBC International Silver strap. He returned to the ring later in 2025 with a first-round RTD win over Yonny Molina in Tirana, then reclaimed the vacant WBC International Silver heavyweight title on May 23, 2026, defeating Raphael Akpejiori by unanimous decision. Through the fights compiled in his dossier Aliev’s professional record stands at 15 wins and 1 loss, with 11 stoppage victories. He has mixed stoppage power with capacity for longer fights, showing both early-round finishing ability and the conditioning to go the distance when required. His career to date features regional and international silver-level titles, high-profile domestic cards in Germany and a trajectory that has seen him contend for European honours. As an active WBC International Silver heavyweight champion, Mourad Aliev remains a notable presence in the European heavyweight ranks. His southpaw style, tall frame and 11 stoppages are the pillars of his ring profile, and his record reflects experience against a range of tested opponents in the 2021–2026 period.
