Harut Grigorian (born March 24, 1989) is an Armenian-Belgian kickboxer who competes in the middleweight division. Having competed in the It's Showtime, K-1 and Shootboxing promotions, he holds notable victories over Alessandro Campagna, Abdallah Mabel and Chris Ngimbi.
Contrary to popular belief, Harut and Marat Grigorian, who is also a kickboxer, are not brothers, as confirmed by Marat.
Grigorian rose to prominence as a young fighter with an extensive record in his adopted country of Belgium. In perhaps the most notable bout of his early career, he featured as a reserve fighter at the S-Cup Europe 2008 in Gorinchem, Netherlands on September 20, 2008 where he defeated Abdallah Mabel by decision.
On February 21, 2009 he defeated Pedro Sedarous via decision after five rounds to claim the Benelux Muay Thai -70 kg Championship. He debuted in the It's Showtime organization later that year when he defeated Chris Ngimbi by an extra round decision at It's Showtime 2009 Lommel on September 24. He followed this up with a technical knockout win over Seo Doo Won at It's Showtime 2009 Barneveld on November 21, 2009.
