Canadian Cruiserweight Ryan Rozicki Joins Zuffa Boxing Roster

Canadian boxing sensation Ryan Rozicki, also known as 'The Bruiser', has inked a multi-fight contract with Zuffa Boxing, bolstering their already impressive cruiserweight division. This powerhouse stable boasts an array of talented fighters, including champion Jai Opetaia, former titleholder Chris Billam-Smith, and top contender Brandon Glanton. Rozicki has built a reputation as a formidable knockout artist, with 21 out of 22 victories coming by way of stoppage. His only loss was to Oscar Rivas, a seasoned heavyweight contender, in a decision back in 2021. Since then, Rozicki has been on a tear, remaining unbeaten in his last nine bouts, often performing in front of packed crowds in Nova Scotia. Notably, he drew with Yamil Alberto Peralta in a WBC interim title rematch in 2024. Rozicki's impressive resume also includes a significant win over Olanrewaju Durodola, who had previously gone the distance with notable boxers Richard Riakporhe and Ilunga Makabu. His most recent fight saw him deliver a second-round knockout against Gerardo Mellado in March. Rozicki expressed his enthusiasm for this new chapter, stating, 'I'm thrilled to join Zuffa Boxing and be a part of their vision. My team has worked tirelessly to get me to this point, and I'm eager to capitalize on this opportunity and make a lasting impact.' Details of his Zuffa Boxing debut are expected to be announced shortly.
