Meet Arslanbek Makhmudov's wife, a mother to his two kids

While Arslanbek Makhmudov’s professional front has been in the limelight, the Russian heavyweight boxer has kept his personal life extremely private. However, his recent interview with The Guardian proved Arslanbek is a dedicated family man. He is married and is dad to his three children, a daughter, who is currently 11, a son, who is currently 10 and his other daughter, who is currently 4. As Arslanbek leads a very private life, his wife’s name is not available online. 

However, Arslanbek's busy schedule and profession clearly indicate that his wife takes care of his kids and the household. Currently, Arslanbek and his family reside in Montreal, Canada. Sharing an update about his wife and children, Arslanbek said that they miss Dagestan, Russia, where they earlier lived. He also mentioned whether he will always live in Canada. The Russian heavyweight boxer was quoted as saying:

"I like Canada. It was still bad at the start because I had zero English, and the culture was different. But you adapt, and it was good I bring my wife and kids. Now my daughter is 11, my son is 10, and my other daughter is four. The kids go to school. They speak French. I don’t know. We will see. I have house here, I have car here, the kids’ school, a very good school, is here. Everything good is here. But of course, my wife and kids miss Dagestan."

Arslanbek Makhmudov was born on July 6, 1989. He was born when the country was called the Soviet Union, and later it became the Russian Federation. He grew up in Dagestan. He had humble beginnings. His father was a bus driver, and his mother was a school teacher. None of his parents received any salary because the country was breaking apart at the time. However, things got better when Arslanbek’s parents started a pharmacy business. Speaking about his early life, Arslanbek said The Guardian:

"I was born in the Soviet Union, and this became the Russian Federation. But I am from Dagestan, and I remember, as a kid, a hard time. There was war in Chechenya and I remember people being taken to the cemetery. We had no money. My father was a bus driver. He worked for one year, but he had no salary because we had no government that worked. My mother was a schoolteacher, and she also didn’t receive a salary. But after my parents started a pharmacy business, our life became much better. It was a very happy life."

Arslanbek is a professional boxer and holds a good record with 21 wins and two defeats. His first defeat came in December 2023 against Agit Kabayel, and the next came in August 2024. Now that he is in good form to compete against the former world champion, Tyson Fury, the anticipation is much higher. In the recent interview with The Guardian, Arslanbek called his opponent, Tyson, the 'professor' and 'master' of boxing. The Russian heavyweight boxer is pretty confident about the forthcoming match. He said:

"Tyson Fury is the professor of mind and boxing. A lot of boxing is mental, and he is a master. But boxing is also spiritual. I am going to be strong, spiritual and smart. You can say this is a war between mental and spiritual, and we’ll see who is more successful. Inshallah, it is spiritual. I don’t know how I will beat Tyson Fury but of course, I believe I will win. I invest a lot of my time in training, and I believe this is a good fight for me. I will do everything to win, inshallah, so that’s why you cannot miss this fight."
