Ercument Aslan is a Turkish boxer who won a bronze medal at 1997 World Amateur Boxing Championships in the 70–75 kg category.[1] He briefly appeared professionally.

Career

A member of the Turkey national boxing team since 1988, Ercument’s amateur career record was 175-25. Highlights include being the Junior world amateur champion in Istanbul in 1994, 3rd at the World Amateur championships in Budapest in 1997 and 2nd at the European Amateur championships in Minsk in 1998. Unfortunately an injury at the World Amateur Championships in Houston in 1999 caused him to miss out on selection for the 2000 Olympic Games, but ultimately lead to his decision to turn professional. Having started boxing at the age of 12, Ercument has a wealth of experience and fought current world champions Markus Beyer and Sven Ottke as an amateur. He spent time as a training camp room mate with the Klitschko brothers and Sinan Samil Sam and is hoping to emulate their professional success as a middleweight.
