Jevgenijs ‘The Hurricane’ Aleksejevs is a professional boxer with an impressive unbeaten record, IBO European middleweight champion, and SEOBROTHERS brand ambassador since September 2025.
Here’s his profile:
The Hurricane had his first professional fight in 2013, and in more than ten years has amassed an impressive undefeated record with 55% of his victories coming by way of knockout or technical knockout. Check his BoxRec profile for detailed stats.
Though his nickname may infer a wild, dominating, fist-flurry of a fighter, The Hurricane is actually more controlled in his fighting style.
His main attributes closely align with those of a counterpuncher. He works from a defensive stance with a good, strong and sudden jab, a healthy dose of unpredictability, and good technical defense.
He is incisive with his attack though, and can overwhelm opponents in the mid-to-late rounds.
It’s worked for him so far, with only eight of his 18 fights going the distance.
Jevgenijs will face experienced Polish gatekeeper Przemysław Zyśk for the vacant IBF Europe Middleweight title on October 11, 2025 in Riga, Latvia. In 2022, Zyśk fought Sam Eggington for the vacant IBO World Super Welter and lost via unanimous decision after full 12 rounds.
The Hurricane defeated Misto Abdulaev in September 2024 to claim the IBO European Middleweight belt. Several months later, Jevgenijs emerged victorious via UD in the first ten-round bout of his career against former IBO Continental Middleweight champion and IBF International Middleweight contender Ismaël ‘Issou’ Seck in Braunschweig, Germany.
Jevgenijs “The Hurricane” Aleksejevs is the SEOBROTHERS ambassador because his drive, discipline, and international ambitions align perfectly with the company’s vision.
“Partnering with Jevgenijs is a natural step for us… he is a symbol of determination, which makes him the perfect face for SEOBROTHERS.”
For Aleksejevs, the partnership is inspiring: “SEOBROTHERS is a large company, and I’m proud to be their ambassador. I will showcase my skills as an athlete and embody forward momentum for the company.”
Before The Hurricane donned the boxing gloves, he was a kickboxing competitor, fighting under K-1 rules.
His nickname stems from one of his unique and eye-catching moves – a spinning, 360-degree kick. Powerful, devastating, and incapacitating, it is a suitable name for a man who won two contests via this method during his brief kickboxing career.
It stayed the course and now follows him into the boxing ring.
The Hurricane is a true fighting man – you just have to look at the depth and breadth of the titles he has won in different combat sports to see why he is one of the most respected sportsmen in Latvia.
He won his first boxing belt on 28 September 2024 as he defeated Misto Abdulaev from Germany and took his career record to 17-0-0. Aleksejevs secured the IBO middleweight title by TKO in the final minute of the second round at the Trofeu de Boxing Fira de Canals tournament in Canals, Valencia.
His achievements across various formats include:
His promising career in kickboxing came to a shuddering halt after a sickening kickboxing injury resulted in a fractured leg.
He broke his leg within 17 seconds of his first fight at the KOC World Championship Fight Show against Estonian fighter Rain Karkinen in 2015.
It was a tough mental obstacle for The Hurricane, but thanks to an intense rehab program, he was back on his feet soon enough, trading heels for hands.

Fiodor Czerkaszyn, Vincent Feigenbutz, and Ričards Bolotņiks are other notable names he has stepped into the practice ring with.
From a competitive standpoint, he has gone toe-to-toe with rivals including Latvian legend Valērijs Mikalauskas, Frenchman Maurice Possiti, and prominent Argentinian fighter Nicolas “Mazazo” Veron, who is from a boxing dynasty.

We spoke to the man himself: “Combat sports are my lifestyle, and boxing is a combination of beauty and skill. I love the athletic and creative parts of my personality in boxing. My goal is to win a belt from one of the leading organisations such as WBC, WBA, IBF, or WBO. I believe I am good enough and strong enough to get there. Winning my first title felt amazing, I was on cloud nine. My dream is to fight on the big stage, like Matchroom Boxing or American promotions. This was just the first step.”
