Dejan is one of the most recognisable athletes in Slovenia and is well known in the boxing community abroad. Zavec, whose professional carreer spans from 2003 to 2015, is the only Slovenian boxer to have held a world title, and was named Slovenian Sportsperson of the Year in 2010. He has 40 professional fights on his record, with 35 wins (19 wins by KO), 4 losses and 1 no contest.

Since wrapping up his pro career Dejan is actively working with young athletes, primarily at Dejan Zavec Gym in Ptuj, Slovenia, focusing not only on boxing and martial arts training, but also spreading the philosophy of positive thinking and well being, which he considers essential not only for sporting success, but also in general.
