Zak is 6-0 and has been dominating the competition thus far in his pro career, which began a year ago. The 26 year old from Ashdod, Israel has consistently fought more experienced foes, three of them with winning records. Nicknamed the “terminator,” he typically boxes, utilizing eye-catching counters and creative combinations.
Singh is a 27 year old from the village of Chakar in southern Punjab, India. His older sister, Olympian Simranjeet Kaur, inspired Arshdeep to take up boxing when he was 11 years old. With a record of 11-2 with 9 KOs, Singh is another experienced opponent with a winning record. He traveled to New Zealand early in his career and upset an undefeated local fighter there back in 2024. That same year, he traveled to Slovakia where he lost to journeyman Pavol Garaj.
Singh keeps a high guard and is a good, tough fighter, but he’s likely not on Zak’s level in terms of speed and skill. Boxing has brought Singh all over India. He’s fought in Chandigarh – a capital city shared by the states of Punjab and Haryana. Bangalore, Mumbai, Goa, and New Delhi have been other locales for his fights.
Zak and Singh share a common opponent. Zak blasted out Darshan Singh in one round while Arshdeep went the eight-round distance in their first fight and scored a second round KO in the rematch. This bout is scheduled for eight rounds.
