Armed with a fearsome punch and a fitting nickname, Siberia’s Albina “The Lion” Moldazhanova has turned her latest knockout victory into a promotional deal with Most Valuable Promotions.

Moldazhanova, 25, knocked out Kirstie Bavington just 44 seconds into the fourth round on Sunday’s card in Texas, headlined by Alycia Baumgardner’s unanimous decision victory over Elif Nur Turhan for the IBF lightweight title.

A former member of Russia’s national boxing team who medaled at European and World championships, Moldazhanova is now 6-0 (6 KOs).

Announcing her signing on Monday, MVP highlighted the power that has brought the junior welterweight six knockouts in as many professional appearances.

“Her relentless power was on full display on August 21, when she delivered a devastating first-round body-shot knockout of previously undefeated Sheila Liesegang just 1:21 into the opening round on the MVP x TikTok Live card in Temecula, California,” the promotion said.

“Her latest performance at [Sunday’s] MVPW-07 further demonstrated her potential to emerge as a major contender in the women's super lightweight division at 140lbs.”

Moldazhanova, who hails from the small Siberian village of Demyanka, welcomed the opportunity to continue her career under the MVP banner.

“I come from a small village in Siberia called Demyanka, and boxing has taken me further than I ever could have imagined. From moving to Tyumen to pursue my dreams, to representing my country on the international stage, every step of my journey has taught me that anything is possible with hard work, determination and belief in yourself,” she said.

“Now, with six professional fights and six knockouts, I’m ready for the next chapter of my career. Signing with MVP is an incredible opportunity to showcase my skills on the biggest stages in boxing, continue my knockout streak and show the world the strength of the Siberian spirit. I want to become undisputed world champion and inspire others to believe that the impossible is possible. This is just the beginning, and I can't wait to show the world what I'm capable of.”

Moldazhanova joins an MVP roster that includes established champions Baumgardner, Amanda Serrano and Chantelle Cameron.

“Albina ‘The Lion’ Moldazhanova is a special talent with the kind of explosive power that can change a fight in an instant,” MVP founders Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian said in a joint statement.

“Six fights, six knockouts speaks for itself, but what makes Albina especially exciting is the contrast between her infectious personality outside the ring and the relentless aggression she brings inside it. She's charismatic, entertaining and knows how to put on a show.

“Her performances on our cards have already demonstrated why she's a fighter fans should be paying attention to. We see tremendous upside in Albina and are excited to officially welcome her to MVP as we work toward establishing her as a major force in the 140lbs division.”
