Christian Thun

Professional career Thun made his professional debut on 2 March 2018, scoring a second-round technical knockout (TKO) victory against Georgi Urjumelashvili at the Espace Leó Ferré in Fontvieille, Monaco.

He scored two victories in 2018–a knockout (KO) against Davit Gogishvili in June and a points decision (PTS) against Euloge Bakanda Boule in September –before facing Viktar Chvarkou on 16 March 2019, at the Hotel W in Barcelona, Spain. Thun emerged victorious after Chvrakou was disqualified in the sixth round for two intentional headbutts.

After a stoppage victory against Jason Bergman in August 2020, Thun fought for his first regional championship against Mirko Tintor on 14 November at the Universum Gym in Hamburg, Germany. In a fight which saw Thun knock his opponent down in the first and second rounds, he went on to capture the vacant IBO Continental heavyweight title via third-round corner retirement (RTD) after Tintor quit on his stool before the start of the fourth round.

The first defence of his IBO regional title is scheduled to take place on 13 August 2021, at Atlantis The Palm in Dubai, against former world champion Lucas Browne.
