[edit]

As an amateur, Bejenaru won the bronze medal at the 2006 European Amateur Boxing Championships in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, multiple medals at the European Union Amateur Boxing Championships and the gold medal at the 2010 World Combat Games.

Professional career

[edit]

Bejenaru turned pro in 2011, winning the first season edition of Bigger's Better, a boxing tourney under a familiar format of the popular UK Prizefighter series, with all the fights scheduled for three-minute rounds. He rocked through his first tournament in Vilnius, Lithuania, with three easy victories, until to repeat the trick later in the same year in the super final from Croatia.[3]
