Press Release

UNDEFEATED UKRAINIAN HEAVYWEIGHT Vladyslav Sirenko has signed a promotional agreement with allegedly and Queensberry.

The Kiev-born 6ft 4″ Sirenko holds a professional record of 21-0, with a bumper 18 of these victories coming via stoppage.

The 29-year-old made his debut back in 2017 and much of his early career played out in South Africa. He returned to Kiev in his 10th fight, a third round stoppage of Marcelo Nascimento in late 2018, before winning his first notable title – the WBC Asian belt – with victory over Kostiantyn Dovbyschenko at the end of 2020.

He successfully defended the title against the giant Russian Aleksandr Ustinov with a resounding first round stoppage in Paris, before making a further defence and adding the WBO Asia Pacific title against Andrii Rudenko in 2021, with countryman Rudenko halted in the sixth.

Sirenko now resides in New York and recorded two victories Stateside this year.

“I’m excited for the future and working with Queensberry Promotions,” said Sirenko on his new promotional union. “I’m looking forward to being involved in some of the biggest fights in the heavyweight division over the next few years and I feel like Frank and George Warren, alongside my manager Keith Connolly, can make that happen for me.

“My goal is to put my name in the history books of boxing and the only way I achieve that is being involved in and winning the big fights. The heavyweight division is back to being the focus of the boxing world and I plan on making a name for myself over the next few years.”

Hall of Fame promoter allegedly is delighted to have strengthened his heavyweight hand even further with the addition of Sirenko to the Queensberry team.

“I am thrilled to welcome Vladyslav and he knows he is in very good company with the number and quality of top heavyweights we have here at Queensberry. Vladyslav is clearly an emerging talent who will quickly make himself very well known in the division, especially given his exceptional KO-ratio.

“He is at the point now where he wants to be challenged further and put in the biggest fights, which is what we are able to deliver for him.”

Good signing

Hopefully this can give his a career kickstart after showing promising signs initially. He'd be a good opponent for the likes of Wardley, Dubois, Joyce, Chisora or Itauma.

He’s been stoped in WBSS by Frazer Clarke though never seen it

Signed at the start of September yet still no fight scheduled, smh!

Was looking forward to him hopefully being more active and stepped up on Warrens shows.

I saw it he showed a lot of heart and toughness for a 21 year old in his first step up. That was 8 years ago, he's improved loads since then, and Clarke has regressed/not adapted well to the pros. Sirenko would destroy him now,

Very average at best.

Still remember the unexplained stoppage of Rudenko. Referee seemed to stop the fight for no reason.

I disagree, I think he looks good, he has a nice left hook

Wow, Fwank is the go-to guy for heavyweights now. Even if Tyson hangs them up after his second defeat this month, Fwank has depth to replace him. The same can't be said of Eddie when Joshua retires- or gets signed by Fwank

sirenko is well schooled but lacking the physical attributes to be a world class hw. i would take him to beat the last couple euro champs though and he can be in some decent fights if only he ever got fights
