Professional career.
Kabayel compiled a perfect record of 15-0 before winning the vacant European heavyweight title with a unanimous decision victory against Herve Hubeaux on 24 February 2017 in Cologne, Germany.
In his next fight, Kabayel defended his European heavyweight title against former WBC world title challenger Derek Chisora at the Casino de Monte Carlo Salle Medcin in Monte Carlo, Monaco on 4 November 2017. In a largely low-key affair, Kabayel outboxed his opponent to a majority decision victory. The judges' scorecards read 115-113, 115-114, 114-114 in Kabayel's favour, handing Chisora his 8th professional loss. Chisora started the fight slow, remaining patient. He became more active after round 6, but failed to bustle the attack on Kabayel, who moved well with his feet. Kabayel also used quick combinations and jabs to win many of the rounds.
Kabayel was victorious in his next three fights, which all took place in his native Germany, to improve to 20-0.
In November 2020, it was revealed that Kabayel was in talks to challenge undefeated WBC and "The Ring" heavyweight champion Tyson Fury on 5 December 2020 at the Royal Albert Hall, London, and that he had been sent a contract by Fury's promoter Frank Warren. However, the fight was ultimately cancelled, due to complications with Fury's contractual disputes with former WBC champion Deontay Wilder regarding a potential trilogy fight between them.
Personal life.
Kabayel was born in Leverkusen, and currently resides in Bochum.
