==Professional career==
==Kotelnik vs. Alexander==
Kotelnik made his professional debut on 16 December 2000, scoring a first-round [[knockout]] against Peter Feher. On 24 January 2003, Kotelnik won his first regional championship—the vacant [[World Boxing Association|WBA]] Inter-Continental [[light-welterweight]] title—following a [[unanimous decision]] (UD) over Fabrice Colombel. He defended this title twice before a career first loss on 21 October 2004, a [[split decision]] (SD) against [[Souleymane M'baye]]. On 9 July 2005, Kotelnik challenged [[European Boxing Union|European]] light-welterweight champion [[Junior Witter]], but lost via UD.<ref>[http://www.bbc.co.uk/southyorkshire/content/articles/2005/07/11/junior_witter_defense_0705.shtml "Witter retains title"]. [[BBC]]. 11 July 2005. Retrieved 21 September 2016.</ref> In his next fight, on 26 November 2005, Kotelnik defeated [[Muhammad Abdullaev]] via UD to win back the vacant WBA Inter-Continental light-welterweight title, as well as the vacant [[World Boxing Organization|WBO]] Asia Pacific light-welterweight title.
Kotelnik's last fight before announcing his retirement was against undefeated IBF and WBC light welterweight champion [[Devon Alexander]]. The fight was fought at an extremely fast pace, with a total of 1876 punches being thrown by both fighters. Alexander in fact had thrown nearly 650 jabs, however only landing 64, compared to Kotelnik who threw 397 but landed 116. Alexander would win a very controversial decision, receiving a 116-112 victory from all three judges. Most observers felt Kotelnik did enough to win by landing the more effective punches also utilising a very effective jab. HBO's Harold Ledderman scored the bout 117-111 for Alexander which was looked at as a terrible scorecard.<ref>http://www.boxingnews24.com/2010/08/alexander-vs-bradley-won%E2%80%99t-be-taking-place-in-devon%E2%80%99s-home-town-of-saint-louis/</ref>

Andriy Mykolayovich Kotelnyk (Ukrainian: Андрій Миколайович Котельник; born 29 December 1977), best known by the Germanicised name Andreas Kotelnik, is a Ukrainian former professional boxer who competed between 2000 and 2014, and held the WBA super-lightweight title from 2008 to 2009. As an amateur boxer, he won a silver medal in the lightweight division at the 2000 Olympics.

Amateur career

[edit]

Professional career

[edit]

Kotelnik made his professional debut on 16 December 2000, scoring a first-round knockout against Peter Feher. On 24 January 2003, Kotelnik won his first regional championship—the vacant WBA Inter-Continental light-welterweight title—following a unanimous decision (UD) over Fabrice Colombel. He defended this title twice before a career first loss on 21 October 2004, a split decision (SD) against Souleymane M'baye. On 9 July 2005, Kotelnik challenged European light-welterweight champion Junior Witter, but lost via UD.[2] In his next fight, on 26 November 2005, Kotelnik defeated Muhammad Abdullaev via UD to win back the vacant WBA Inter-Continental light-welterweight title, as well as the vacant WBO Asia Pacific light-welterweight title.

A rematch against M'baye on 30 March 2007, this time with M'baye's WBA light-welterweight world title on the line, ended in a split draw.[3] Almost exactly a year later, on 22 March 2008, Kotelnik won the aforementioned WBA world title—now held by Gavin Rees—by stopping the champion in the twelfth and final round.[4] Two successful defences were made: a UD against Norio Kimura on 13 September 2008,[5] and a close SD against future world champion Marcos Maidana on 7 February 2009.[6] In his third defence, Kotelnik lost the title to Amir Khan after a clear UD.[7] After more than a year of inactivity, he returned on 7 August 2010 to face unified WBC and IBF light-welterweight champion Devon Alexander, but lost a UD which was widely viewed as controversial and a "robbery".[8][9][10]

Having spent more than four years out of the sport, Kotelnik had a farewell fight on 4 October 2014, winning a dominant eight-round UD over Alexander Benidze.[11]
