{{About|the Australian kickboxer}
Steve Moxon (born 9 November 1987) is an Australian kickboxer who competes in the middleweight and super middleweight divisions. Known for his speed and knockout power, Moxon captured the ISKA South Pacific Middleweight (−75 kg/165 lb) Championship early in his career before taking the WKF World Middleweight title from Expedito Valin in 2012. He signed with Glory that same year. As of 2 November 2015, he is ranked the #11 lightweight in the world by GLORY.
Moxon hails from the small town of Ballan, Victoria. He is a joiner by trade and also served in the Australian Army.
Debuting as a professional fighter eight months after he first stepped in the gym, Moxon won his first fight by third-round technical knockout against Onur Yudical. Then continued his career with his first 16 fights remaining undefeated. He rose to prominence by winning the ISKA South Pacific Middleweight (−75 kg/165 lb) Championship early in his career, and moved to Sydney to train under Peter Graham at the Boxing Works gym. In 2010, he was a competitor on the Enfusion kickboxing reality TV show, in which he was eliminated by Pasi Luukanen.
On 10 July 2010, he made his K-1 debut against Kenmun at the K-1 World Grand Prix 2010 in Canberra, and took a split decision over the tall Japanese fighter. A month later, he drew with veteran Jordan Tai at Kings of Kombat 2010 in Keysborough, Australia. The pair rematched at Kings of Kombat 3 on 2 April 2011, with Moxon emerging the victor via majority decision this time.
