About Dennis Alexio

  • Dennis Raymond Alexio (born March 12, 1959) is an American former kickboxer who competed in the light heavyweight, cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions.
  • Starting out as a light heavyweight, Alexio kicked off his career with an extensive, knockout-laden undefeated streak before losing a decision to Don "The Dragon" Wilson in a WKA World Super Light Heavyweight Full Contact Championship match in 1984.
  • He rebounded from this by winning the PKA World Light Heavyweight title that same year before moving up to cruiserweight and taking the ISKA World Cruiserweight Full Contact strap.
  • In the late 1980s, he began his transition to the heavyweight division where he won six world titles and was, for a short time, considered the undisputed World Heavyweight Champion.
  • He faced the two toughest tests of his career in 1992 against Branko Cikatic and Stan Longinidis, both who were heavier fighters fighting to a controversial draw with Cikatic and losing to Longinidis via an early low kick KO. An aggressive fighter possessing good boxing skills and a powerful spinning back kick to the midsection, Alexio retired with an impressive 92% KO ratio.
