Nuri Seferi, also known as Albanian Tyson, is an Albanian professional boxer born on December 23, 1976, and competes out of Burgdorf, Switzerland. With over 20 years of experience, Seferi has a total of 53 fights in his career, winning 42 with 24 coming from knockout wins, and has suffered 11 losses, all in non-title bouts. He has never won a title, neither has he done any title defenses.

Seferi made his professional boxing debut at the age of 22 on March 31, 1999, against Miroslav Dzurenda, where he defeated the Slovakian via 1st round KO. After his debut, he went on an impressive run of seven consecutive wins, which included seven victories via stoppage. He has fought notable boxers like Nenad Stankovic, Gusmyr Perdomo, Douglas Otieno Okola, and Giulian Ilie, among others.

All of Seferi's 11 losses have come in non-title bouts, and his first defeat was against Kostyantyn Okhrey via 4th round TKO on June 16, 2001. He has lost eight times via decision and has been stopped three times via KO. His most recent fight was a non-title bout against German boxer Mahmoud Charr on December 21, 2022, which he lost via 2nd round TKO.

Seferi's fighting stance is orthodox with a height of 5 ft 11 in (1.80 m), and his weight class is both Cruiserweight and Heavyweight. Seferi nicknames himself Albanian Tyson, which shows a lot about his fighting style and aggressiveness.

Before transitioning to the professional scene, Nuri Seferi had a remarkable amateur career with a perfect record of 10 wins, including 9 knockouts. He became the Swiss amateur heavyweight champion in 1998 but retired from the sport soon after to focus on turning pro.

Seferi's professional boxing record is undoubtedly impressive, with 42 wins, 24 of which came via KO. However, he has never won a title, and he has not fought against some of the big names in his weight class.

Seferi has a younger brother, Sefer Seferi, who is also a professional boxer in the Cruiserweight division. In December 2011, both brothers were named honorary citizens of their birthplace, Gostivar in Macedonia, by the city's mayor Rufi Osmani.

On 31st March 1999, Nuri Seferi made his professional boxing debut at the age of 22, facing and defeating Miroslav Dzurenda, a Slovakian boxer via first-round knockout in Worb, Switzerland. Since his debut, he has fought 53 times, winning 42 fights, losing 11 and drawing none. Of his victories, 24 have come by knockout. Seferi, who was dubbed the Albanian Tyson early in his career for his aggressive style, has had a long and illustrious career in professional boxing.

Seferi has never won a title, and he has not fought against some of the big names in his weight class. However, his fighting style and proactivity in the ring make for an entertaining bout. Nuri's agility and strength have seen him with back-to-back wins in the past, making it clear that he is a force to be reckoned with no matter who the opponent is when he is focused.

Despite Seferi's success and experience over the years, he has never held a title or done any title defenses, making him an underdog amongst his peers. Although he has fought some big names in the industry, he has not proven himself to be a consistent contender for a title.

Seferi's losses total up to eleven, and they all came in non-title bouts. He has been stopped three times and lost eight times via decision. This proves that Nuri Seferi needs to focus on more intense training and preparation mentally and physically for his future fights. The lack of a title victory or a significant win in recent years is explainable in part by Seferi's inconsistency.

Seferi's most recent fight was a non-title bout against German boxer Mahmoud Charr on December 21, 2022. Nuri lost the fight via 2nd round TKO. Despite this defeat, Seferi's decision to take on newer boxers, including the German boxer Charr, demonstrates his hunger to challenge himself on the professional level.

It's been over 20 years since Nuri Seferi first stepped into the ring for his professional boxing debut, and his illustrious career has been marked by memorable bouts and performances in the ring. He has fought notable boxers like Nenad Stankovic, Gusmyr Perdomo, Douglas Otieno Okola, and Giulian Ilie, among others. Although he has not attained a title victory, he is undoubtedly looked upon as a boxer with a lot of potential and an aggressive, action-oriented fighting style.

Nuri Seferi is a formidable opponent in the ring, with an impressive record of 42 wins and 11 losses. His fighting style has earned him the nickname "Albanian Tyson." Although he has not won any titles, he remains a memorable boxer in the industry, with his impressive wins over notable boxers. Seferi's consistency seems to be the only thing holding him back, as he's not attained a title victory, but his hunger and competitive spirit remain unabated. With a fierce fighting style and a knack for landing impressive punches, Nuri Seferi continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the professional boxing world.
