Twenty-two-year-old Kazakhstan boxer Firuza Sharipova may not have a world title under her belt just yet, but she’s got an international title nevertheless, thanks to her drop dead gorgeous looks.

The professional fighter has been voted the sexiest athlete in her country. And Sharipova, who is married to Kazakhstan boxer Denis Rybak, does not mind the attention.

“Thanks to all of you. I will try to make you feel glad when I hope will not just be because of my looks, but also because of my victories,” said Sharipova, whose surname is almost identical to another glamourous international sportswoman, Russian Maria Sharapova.
