Hasim Rahman Jr.
Hasim Sharif Rahman Jr. (born June 15, 1991) is an American professional boxer who challenged for the WBC-USNBC heavyweight title in 2022. He is the son of former world heavyweight champion, Hasim Rahman.
Hasim Sharif Rahman Jr. was born on June 15, 1991, in Baltimore, Maryland. He is the son of former professional boxer and two-time world heavyweight champion Hasim Rahman.
After over 100 amateur fights, Rahman made his professional boxing debut on April 14, 2017. He started his career with three wins via TKO. In 2021 Rahman fought three times, with two fights ending via some knockout.
On April 29, 2022, Rahman fought Kenzie Morrison, the son of former professional boxer, Tommy Morrison, for the WBC-USNBC heavyweight title. Rahman lost via technical knockout.
Rahman was scheduled to face YouTuber Jake Paul on August 6, 2022, at Madison Square Garden as a late replacement, after British boxer Tommy Fury withdrew citing difficulties in entering the US after his ESTA was denied by US Homeland Security. On July 30, 2022, Paul's promotional company, Most Valuable Promotions (MVP), revealed that Rahman had withdrawn from the fight, and that the entire card was now cancelled. Rahman allegedly withdrew because of weight issues, with the New York State athletic commission unwilling to sanction the fight at the 200lb cruiserweight because Rahman's weight-cut was progressing very slowly, having only lost 1lb since signing the contract. Paul, MVP, and the State commission then agreed to move forward with a new 205lb weight limit, with Rahman initially agreeing to this. However, Rahman then stated that he would not fight unless the fight was sanctioned at 215lb, resulting in MVP terminating his contract and the entire card being scrapped.
On August 27, 2022, DAZN announced that Rahman would be boxing former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Vitor Belfort in the main event of MF & DAZN: X Series 002 on October 15, 2022, in Sheffield, England. The bout was postponed to MF & DAZN: X Series 003 on November 19, 2022, and took place at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas. Belfort withdrew from the fight after testing positive for COVID-19. Rahman then faced former NFL player and UFC fighter Greg Hardy and lost via unanimous decision.
On September 14, 2022, it was announced that Rahman had signed to Happy Punch Promotions, a boxing promotion organization founded by YouTubers Keemstar and Fousey.
Rahman was scheduled to face BKFC Heavyweight Champion Alan Belcher on the undercard of MF & DAZN: X Series 008 on July 22, 2023, at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee. However, Rahman withdrew due to an injury thus resulting in Belcher to face reality television star Chase DeMoor in an exhibition bout.
