Stefi Cohen, a renowned powerlifter, professional boxer, and social media influencer with over 1 million Instagram followers, was arrested last week on a domestic violence battery charge after an explosive altercation with her boyfriend in Miami.
The incident, detailed in court documents obtained by TMZ Sports, reportedly unfolded on July 1 at around 12:47 PM inside a Miami-area residence.
???? What Went Down?
According to the alleged victim, Cohen and her boyfriend were arguing about their relationship when tensions escalated after he noticed Cohen was recording their conversation on her computer.
The man told officers he decided to leave and grabbed his phone, placing it in his pocket. Cohen, however, allegedly believed he was taking her phone—and that’s when things turned physical.
The accuser claims Cohen scratched him on the neck and chest and even tore the pocket of his pants during the confrontation.
???? Two Sides of the Story
Cohen, who holds a 4-1-1 record as a professional boxer, reportedly told police a very different version of events.
She alleged that her boyfriend had struck her in the face with a closed fist and scratched her.
However, officers noted that they found no physical evidence on Cohen to support her claims.
“Based on the fact that the victim in this case is a professional fighter and the allegations made by the defendant claim that she was struck… there is no physical evidence of injuries on the defendant that supports her allegations,” the police report reads.
In contrast, officers confirmed the alleged victim’s injuries “were consistent with his statement regarding what occurred with the defendant.”
???? A Troubled Legal History
This isn’t Cohen’s first run-in with the law. In 2023, she was arrested on charges of sexual cyberharassment, further complicating her public image.
Currently, Cohen has not issued a public statement about the incident. Her Instagram account, where she goes by Dr. Stefi Cohen, is now set to private, leaving her 1 million followers in the dark.
???? Who Is Stefi Cohen?
Cohen is known worldwide in the fitness community as a record-breaking powerlifter and has built an empire around her athletic achievements and online presence.
With an inspiring career in both weightlifting and boxing, she has been celebrated for breaking barriers as a female athlete in male-dominated sports. But her legal troubles are raising eyebrows among fans and fitness industry insiders alike.
