Sergei "White Wolf" Liakhovich ([Сяргей Ляховіч, Siarhiej Liachovič] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help), also Lyakhovich; born May 29, 1976, in Vitebsk, Belarus), is a Belarusian boxer and a former WBO heavyweight boxing champion.

Amateur career

Liakhovich, who represented Belarus at the 1996 Olympic Games, was a long-time amateur who won Bronze at the 1997 World Championships. He amassed a 145-15 record [1] before turning pro in 1998.

Professional career

His first defeat occurred on June 1, 2002, when he was knocked out by Maurice Harris in the 9th round.

Liakhovich won the WBO title from Lamon Brewster on April 1, 2006. Liakhovich was knocked down in the 7th round, but went on to win on points via unanimous decision. He lost the title to Shannon Briggs by technical knockout in the 12th round on November 4, 2006, after being knocked down twice. After the first knockdown, Liakhovich, already shaky, took a big right from Briggs and fell through the ring ropes, prompting the referee to stop the match. The clock time was 2:59 at that point.

On February 16, 2008, Liakhovich lost to Nikolai Valuev by unanimous decision. He has won his last two fights a first round TKO of Jeremy Bates on November 7, 2009 in Nuremberg, Germany and a 9th round KO of Evans Quinn in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany on May 22, 2010 on the undercard of Chagaev-Meehan.

His manager is Tony Cardinale who engineered his release from Don King Productions and signed him to Main Events.
