Mourad Aliev (born 31 July 1995) is a French professional boxer. As an amateur he won a silver medal at the 2019 European Games. While representing France at the 2020 Summer Olympics, Aliev was disqualified from his quarterfinal bout.

Early life

Born in Moscow, Russia, and of Azerbaijani descent, Aliev moved to France at the age of six as a political refugee and became a naturalised French citizen at the age of 22.

Amateur career

At the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Aliev was disqualified in his bout against Frazer Clarke due to a head-butt. As soon as the decision was announced in the ring, Aliev had denounced an injustice. Later, the supervisor certified an error in refereeing and said that there is no error on the part of Aliev, but the decision can not be modified. Aliev staged a sit-in protest for an hour, after punching the ringside camera. Both actual and former French National Olympic and Sports Committee presidents supported Aliev against what they consider being an injustice.

Professional career

Aliev made his professional debut on 20 November 2021, scoring a four-round unanimous decision (UD) victory against German Skobenko at the Universum Gym in Hamburg, Germany.
