He is currently Chief Commander and Head Instructor of the Israel Defense Forces Krav Maga Instructional Division[2] and holds a professional boxing record of 26 wins with 18 by knockout and one loss.[3] He scored his latest victory on January 21, 2012 defeating Derek Bryant by unanimous decision.[4] Nakash’s only loss occurred on April 2, 2011 against WBO Cruiserweight champion Marco Huck.[3] Despite accepting the fight on short notice as a late replacement for Giacobbe Fragomeni, Nakash fought a competitive fight, pressing his opponent throughout the 12-round bout, though Huck was ultimately awarded the victory on points.
