Levin then ran off another winning streak knocking out guys like Ray Austin before facing fringe contender Jeremy Williams in 2004, and losing via TKO in the 8th. He then fought undefeated Nikolay Valuev, and was TKO'd in the 3rd round. After three years off he restarted his career in 2008 with a win against Willie Perryman (TKO) in a boxing gala held in Kissimmee, Florida.
