Igor Bugaenko (born 1981), also referred to as Ihar Buhaenka, is a Belarusian professional kickboxer who has been active since 2008. He previously held the SUPERKOMBAT Cruiserweight Championship and is a two-time winner of the Tatneft Arena World Cup (2008, 2014).
Between March 2015 and July 2021, Bugaenko was consistently ranked among the top ten middleweight kickboxers worldwide.
Tatneft Cup achievements
Bugaenko began his professional journey competing in the Tatneft Cup during 2008 and 2009. He claimed the 2008 title by defeating Elvin Abbasov with a first-round TKO in the final match. However, in 2009, he was unable to replicate this success, losing in the semifinal to Semen Shelepov and subsequently falling short in the third-place bout against Sergei Lascenko. This period marked a difficult phase as he suffered five losses out of seven fights, including four stoppages. His downturn concluded at the 2013 Tatneft Cup, where he achieved a first-round knockout over Eduardo Maiorino.
SUPERKOMBAT Fighting Championship
On November 9, 2013, Bugaenko earned a victory against Lorenzo Javier Jorge in a SUPERKOMBAT Cruiserweight Title Eliminator. This win led to a title challenge against Bogdan Stoica at the SUPERKOMBAT World Grand Prix 2013 Final held in Galați, Romania on December 21. After three rounds, Bugaenko secured the Cruiserweight Championship through a unanimous decision.
In 2014, he entered the Tatneft Arena Middleweight tournament by overcoming Vladimir Toktasynov and Martin Pacas via decision in early rounds. He went on to win both the semifinal against Valentin Slavikovskiy and the final versus Alexander Vezhevatov through extra round decisions.
Victory in Croatia
During Obračun u Ringu 13, Bugaenko participated in the VVWS 95 kg elimination tournament. He defeated Stefan Anđelković by unanimous decision in the semifinals and then secured a TKO victory over Pacôme Assi in the finals, earning qualification for the main VVWS event. Subsequently, he triumphed over Claudiu Istrate by unanimous decision in the semifinals and clinched the tournament championship with a first-round stoppage of Alexandru Burduja.
Absolute Championship Berkut
Following his tournament success, Bugaenko recorded seven consecutive wins by decision, including notable victories against Redouan Cairo, Luis Tavares, Hicham El Gaoui, and Freddy Kemayo. At ACB KB 15, he contested for the inaugural ACB KB Middleweight title against Artem Levin, but lost by decision.
Subsequent career
After losing the title bout, Bugaenko faced Mikhail Chalykh at Zhara Fight Show and won via decision. In October 2019 at Fair Fight, he was defeated by César Almeida following an extra round decision.
