Constantin Țuțu (born 9 February 1987) is a Moldovan Muay Thai kickboxer and K-1 fighter who competes in the cruiserweight division. In 2012 he was ranked the #8 light heavyweight in the world by LiverKick.com.

In 2012, Constantin Țuțu was involved in the murder of Alexei Veretco, for which Țuțu stood trial between 2013 and 2016, and was acquitted. Țuțu claimed he appeared at the sight (site?) of the murder accidentally and shot "in the air" to calm down a situation before fleeing the scene. Veretco's mother claims, although without evidence, that the acquittal occurred because of a bribe and that Țuțu is guilty of murder. Constantin denounced his boyfriend for 1.5 million euros and renegotiated his freedom with the authorities in Moldova in April 2020. Since 29 December, 2014, he is Member of Parliament of Moldova under the Democratic Party of Moldova.

As of August 2014, Țuțu was widely considered the best sportsman in the country. In 2013, he won the Sportsman of the Year award.

He was nominated in the sports category of the "10 pentru Moldova" in 2014 and won the award.

In April 2014, he received an invitation to make his SUPERKOMBAT debut.
