European heavyweight Champion Labinot Xhoxhaj, to defend his title against challenger Mourad Aliev
History is about to be made in Hamburg when two undefeated Heavyweight champions of the future meet.
The two unbeaten heavyweights are set to collide for a continental title on June 7th.
This is not just any other fight; it is the biggest Heavyweight fight to take place in Hamburg since the Klitschko Brothers ruled the heavyweight ranks. When you look at the two competitors, you can understand the excitement.
Xhoxhaj, who is 32 years old from Kosovo, has never lost a boxing match since he started his professional career. His record of 20-0-1 certainly shows that he knows what it takes to win a boxing match, with 16 knockouts out of those 20 wins, he has displayed the ability to end fights.
He recently won the European title in an effortful battle. He still came to the top even after being knocked down. Xhoxhaj again faced Oleksandr Zakhozhyi, who was much bigger, and he still won the match.
"This is one of the biggest fights of my career," said Xhoxhaj to his fans on his Instagram account recently in May 2025. Can you hear the determination in his voice?
Challenging him will be Mourad Aliev, a 29-year-old left-handed boxer. Aliev represented France as an amateur in the Olympics before turning professional. He, too, is undefeated with a record of 13-0, with 10 knockouts, and is looking to add a European title to his WBC International Silver belt.
Both fighters’ styles make the matchup interesting. Xhoxhaj is a grinder and is going to come forward all night long no matter the cost. Aliev is the slick boxer and Olympian who will make you miss and make you pay.
Both fighters have a lot to fight for. Both will walk away with the rights to brag about being European Heavyweight champions. This opportunity also represents a legitimate chance to potentially fight for a World title.
