Egorov amassed a 7-0 record during the next three years, with six stoppages, before being booked to fight Thomas Oosthuizen for the vacant IBF International Cruiserweight title on 23 March 2019. He won the fight by unanimous decision, with scores of 100-90, 99-91, and 98-92. Egorov faced Roman Golovashchenko three months later, on 16 June 2019. HE won the fight by a third-round technical knockout. Egorov faced Serhiy Radchenko on 7 December 2019, in his final fight of 2019. He won the fight by unanimous decision, with all three judges awarding him a 100-89 scorecard. Egorov fought once in 2020, against Vasil Ducar on 12 March 2020, in a stay-busy fight. He won the fight by unanimous decision, with scores of 99-92, 97-94 and 97-94.

On 12 February 2021, the WBA ordered their "Super" cruiserweight champion Arsen Goulamirian to make a mandatory title defense against Egorov. They were given a 30-day negotiation period, starting with February 11, 2021. After a thirty day period of unsuccessful negotiations, a purse bid was held, with a 65-35 split for Goulamirian. The bid was won by World of Boxing, who submitted a bid of $210 000. The fight was eventually scheduled for December 10, 2021, at the RCC Boxing Academy in Yekaterinburg, Russia. Goulamirian was later forced to withdraw from the bout, as he tested positive for COVID-19. On 23 August 2022, the WBA once again ordered Goulamirian to face Egorov, giving the fighters 15 days to negotiate the terms of the bout. As they failed to do so, a purse bid was called, which was won by Y2 Boxing who bid $364,000. The title bout was booked to take place on 19 November 2022. He lost the fight by unanimous decision.
