Charlie Zelenoff Bio

Charlie Zelenoff was born on July 27, 1988, in Los Angeles, California, USA. He was raised in Los Angeles where he attended ‘Fairfax High School.’ Zelenoff became passionate about boxing at a young age. Subsequently, he decided to pursue professional boxing. In his first official fight, Zelenoff was pitted against Andrew Hartley in the Welterweight category.

Refusing to hang up his boxing gloves, Zelenoff continued challenging amateur and professional boxers alike. Subsequently, he started posting his boxing videos on the internet, gaining popularity as an internet troll. Thanks to their controversial nature, many of his videos went viral. In one such video, Zelenoff was seen fighting a kid, which provoked an outburst of anger on the internet. In another video, Zelenoff was seen challenging heavyweight boxing professional Deontay Welder. Despite receiving heavy blows from Welder, Zelenoff claims to be the best boxer at the end of the video. He has also sparred with boxing legends, such as Floyd Mayweather Sr. among other famous boxers. He also claims to be the undisputed ‘Underground Boxing Federation’ (UBF) World Champion and carries around a couple of fake boxing championship belts.
