Brest, Belarus – May 2, 2025. Artem Oganesyan (13-1, IBA* 1-0) secured a confident unanimous decision victory over Aliaksandr Radzionau (0-0, IBA 0-1) in an 8-round bout at the IBA PRO 5 tournament.
The fight was tense and competitive, but Oganesyan looked sharper overall, delivering accurate punches and maintaining a high pace until the final bell. This win marked his successful return to the ring after nearly a three-year hiatus.
Comeback after the break: The 25-year-old Armenian boxer had not fought since June 2022, when he suffered his first and only career loss — a decision defeat to Mexico's Dante Jardon in Montreal. Before that, Artem had an unblemished record with 13 consecutive wins, 11 of them by knockout. He fought most of his career bouts in Canada under the Eye of The Tiger banner.
