Dzianis Hancharonak (Belarusian: Дзянic Алегавiч Ганчаронак; born June 21, 1988), sometimes spelt Denis Goncheronok, is a Belarusian heavyweight Muay Thai kickboxer fighting out of Minsk for Patriot Gym. He is a five-time amateur Muay Thai I.F.M.A world champion and holds a national degree of honored master of sports in Muay Thai. Inside the amateur ring, he enjoyed victories over notable athletes including: Nenad Pagonis, Franci Grajš, Simon Marcus and Vladimir Mineev.
Dzianis has been a prominent member of the Belarusian Muay Thai national team. He won his first major international tournament during his teens, which was the 2006 I.F.M.A World Championships in -81 kg category. In 2006, when Dzianis finished high school, he continued to pursue his Muay Thai career under renowned Belarusian trainer Dmitry Piasetsky. Blood, sweat and tears in this tough training regimen earned him multiple titles from recognized Muay Thai and kickboxing organizations including I.F.M.A and W.A.K.O. Dzianis has had more than 260 amateur fights not only in Thailand, home country of Muay Thai, but all over the world. In 2010, he won the World Combat Games in Beijing, China.
Although still competing in international amateur championships as is required of the national team member, Dzianis is very passionate about professional fights. Dzianis has fought 10 professional bouts, chalking up an impressive K.O. victory over Netherlands' Boy Boy Martin on March 19, 2010, in K-1 World Max 2010 East Europe Tournament. On July 30, 2011, Dzianis took on Redouan Cairo in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. The action started immediately and after being knocked down twice in the second round, Hancharonak came back with the TKO in round three.
