German heavyweight Albon Pervizaj returns to action after almost two years out on Saturday, June 21 at Gold's Gym in Berlin, Germany. The opponent for Pervizaj is Ilja Mezencev, 25-4 (21 KOs), who in his last fight was stopped against Moses Itauma.
Pervizaj, a good amateur with a pro record of 18-1 (13 KOs), turned pro back in 2017 with Sauerland Event and went 12-0 but then lost to Dusan Veletic. After that, Pervizaj was fighting more or less as a freelancer before taking a long break from boxing in 2023.
In March of this year it was announced he had signed with Fides Sports, headed by Burim Sylejmani, a company based in Ferizaj, Republic of Kosovo, but with strong ties to Germany.
