David Valeryevich Ayrapetyan (Armenian: Դավիդ Այրապետյանը, born 26 September 1983) is an Armenian-Russian amateur boxer.
After the beginning of the First Nagorno-Karabakh War and the subsequent Baku pogrom, the family was forced to move to Armenia and then later to Russia.
Ayrapetyan is only the second Russian boxer to become a European Champion in the light flyweight division, after the highly decorated veteran Sergey Kazakov.
He unexpectedly lost in the first match to Georgiy Chygayev, who won the European Championship at flyweight that year and then moved down in weight class.
[8] Ayrapetyan reached the finals at the 2009 World Amateur Boxing Championships in Milan and won the silver medal.
