Rudy Bundini

One of the world’s most successful male models, Rudy Bundini is a former heavy weight boxing champion who can be seen on billboards around the globe. Hailed as one of the most in-demand models in the fashion and commercial world right now, the biggest brands have been clamouring to snatch up Bundini, and in 2020 he was named as the newest face of Nike, the globe’s biggest athletic company. He has also appeared in campaigns for the likes of Calvin Klein, Armani, Versace, Hennessy and Roger Dubuis and has graced numerous runways and magazine covers.

Born in Basel, Switzerland, the talented swimmer and boxer moved to the United States to follow his dream of becoming an athlete, and he won a gold medal in the Azerbaijan international boxing tournament becoming a heavy weight champion. Bundini never planned to become a model in his youth, but his striking looks and athleticism led to several modelling propositions and he decided to begin modelling full-time.

In less than two years his career rocketed; he was named IMTA’s “Model of the Year” and Forbes named him one of today’s Top 5 Influencers in February 2020. Unsurprisingly Bundini has a huge social media presence, with more than 3 million followers on Instagram.

As a lifelong health guru and high-achieving athlete, Bundini immediately accepted Nike’s offer after catching the attention of the brand’s marketing director. The world of acting also awaits the rising star, and he has already appeared in James Wan’s Furious 7 and the series The Beautiful Grind New York.
