Biography
Kingsley Ibeh (born in Nigeria, 1993) is a Nigerian-born American professional boxer who competes in the heavyweight division. Nicknamed “The Black Lion,” Ibeh is known for his imposing size, standing 6 ft 4 in (193 cm) tall with an 80-inch reach, and for his exceptional knockout power. He is based in Phoenix, Arizona, and fights under the promotion of Azat Torosyan.
Ibeh turned professional in August 2019 and quickly established himself as one of the most dangerous punchers on the U.S. heavyweight scene. His early career was marked by a string of first-round knockouts, showcasing his raw strength and aggressive approach. Despite facing setbacks against top prospects like Jared Anderson and Guido Vianello, Ibeh demonstrated resilience by rebuilding his record with consistent stoppage victories.
Between 2023 and 2025, Ibeh enjoyed a strong resurgence, scoring multiple early knockouts against experienced opposition and capturing regional recognition, including winning the vacant WBC FECARBOX Heavyweight title.
