Artem Harutyunyan, a talented boxer, was born in Yerevan in 1990. In 1991, his family moved to Germany, where they started a new life from scratch. Despite the hardships the Harutyunyan family faced, they managed to create a decent future, becoming some of the most prominent figures in the boxing world.
By the way, boxers from Germany have not won championship fights in the USA since 1930 when Max Schmeling (56-10-4) defeated Jack Sharkey (37-13-3) at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Twice, Arthur Abraham also failed to win in the USA. Now it is Harutyunyan's turn to make history.
Artem is facing a new challenge — a fight against Shakur Stevenson, who is ranked second in the lightweight division by Boxrec.
Shakur Stevenson is a three-division champion with a record of 21 wins and no losses, including 10 wins by knockout.
