Introduction
Eduard Valentinovich Troyanovsky (Russian: Эдуард Валентинович Трояновский; born 30 May 1980) is a Russian professional boxer who held the IBF and IBO light-welterweight titles from 2015 to 2016.
Professional career
Troyanovsky made his professional debut on 28 November 2009, winning a four-round points decision over Richard Zwarg. Fighting in Germany and Russia for the next six years, Troyanovsky won 19 fights in a row, most of them by knockout. On 10 April 2015, he knocked out Aik Shakhnazaryan in eight rounds to win the vacant IBO light-welterweight title. Later that year, on 4 November 2015, Troyanovsky won the IBF light-welterweight title by stopping César Cuenca in the sixth round. He successfully defended both titles in a rematch against Cuenca on 8 April 2016, this time stopping him in seven rounds.
A second defence of the titles came in spectacular style on 9 September 2016, which saw Troyanovsky launch Keita Obara through the ring ropes in round two, and ultimately finish the fight with further unanswered punches when Obara climbed back in to resume. On 3 December 2016, Troyanovsky suffered his first career loss in a major upset, after Julius Indongo knocked him out cold in the first round.
