He defeated several seasoned fighters, some with TKOs and some others by referee stoppage to reach the final, earning a silver medal.

The pinnacle of the Krasnodon native’s amateur career came the following year, in August 2012. It was when Denys Berinchyk represented Ukraine at the London Olympics. Competing in the lightweight division, Berinchyk fought against Roniel Iglesias and earned a silver medal after a hard-fought final.
