Throughout his career, Dimitrenko proved himself to be a fierce fighter with a powerful punch and a hunger for success. Let's take a closer look at his career.

Dimitrenko started his boxing career in 2001 at the age of 19 with a bang by defeating Marcus Johnson in the fourth round via TKO. With that victory, he began a 29-fight win streak, which came to an end in 2009 with a majority decision loss to Eddie Chambers. Nonetheless, throughout his professional boxing career spanning more than 17 years, Dimitrenko managed to win 26 fights by knockout, demonstrating his power and skill.

Among his notable victories are wins over Luan Krasniqi, Albert Sosnowski, Gonzalo Basile, Adrian Granat, Derric Rossy, Michael Sprott, and Yaroslav Zavorotnyi. His opponents were not limited to Ukrainian fighters, and he fought against boxers from multiple countries worldwide. As a result of his impressive performances, he gained an army of devoted fans throughout his career.

Despite his knockout power and the numerous accolades won throughout his career, Dimitrenko never won a world title in his career. Throughout his boxing career, he did not have any title fights, though he was widely considered one of the top-ranking heavyweights in his prime. His six losses were all non-title fights. He lost to Dillian Whyte, Joseph Parker, Kubrat Pulev, Bryant Jennings, Eddie Chambers, and Tony Yoka.

Dimitrenko's style of fighting was to let his fists speak for him. He was one of the most feared fighters in the ring due to his size, strength, and power. However, his heavyweight career also had its ups and downs, with Dimitrenko experiencing five knockout defeats throughout his career. This demonstrates his willingness to step up to a challenge and face the best in the division.

Over the course of his professional career, Dimitrenko gained a reputation as a modest but determined fighter respected by his peers. He was not one to indulge in trash-talking or brawling outside the ring. Furthermore, he was recognized as a family man dedicated to his children by spending time with them and supporting their interests outside of boxing.

His last professional bout was a non-title match against French boxer Tony Yoka on July 13, 2019, where he lost via third-round TKO. Dimitrenko announced his retirement from professional boxing with a record of 41-6, which included 26 knockout wins and five losses via knockout.

In conclusion, Alexander Dimitrenko's career in boxing provides insight into the tenacity and skill that one must possess to excel in the sport. From his early days in the game to his final fight, Dimitrenko remained a force to be reckoned with in the ring, with his knockout power and technical abilities creating a legacy that will be remembered by the boxing community for many years to come.
