In 2010 Denis Kudla started for the first time at the Junior European Championships for Cadets, which took place in Sarajevo . In the weight class up to 63 kg body weight, however, he still had to pay hardship and only came in 19th place. Just one year later, grown into the weight category to 76 kg body weight, he was far more successful and won in Warsaw in the same age group behind Muchamad Kogitschew from Russia and Lasha Gobadse from Georgia a bronze medal . Just 14 days later, he exceeded this success again at the Junior World Championship (Cadets) in Szombathely , because he became Junior World Champion with five wins. In the decisive battles he defeated Muchamad Kogitschew and Ogushan Mesut Sarisoy from Turkey . In his five fights he only gave a rating against Kogitschew.
In the international competitions of the juniors of the year 2012 he was not as successful as in the cadets in 2011.

In 2013 Denis Kudla became German junior middleweight champion, but had to accept a point defeat in the German men's championship in the semi-finals against Eugen Ponomartschuk from SV Burghausen, so he could only fight for 3rd place. But he got back on the road to success in his second junior year, because at the European Championships in Skopje he won over Zakarias Berg, Sweden, Robert Kobliaschwili, Georgia, Mikola Krisew, Ukraine, Ilya Gulijew, Russia and Dorian Parwan, Romania, the European title. In the Junior World Championship this year he could not take part due to an injury.

In August 2016, he achieved his greatest international success to date at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. After a defeat against the future Olympic champion Dawit Chakwetadze from Russia, he then defeated Habibollah Jomeh Akhlaghi from Iran and Victor Lörincz from Hungary in the consolation round and thus deservedly won an Olympic bronze medal.
At the U-23 European Championship 2017 in Szombathely, Denis Kudla surprisingly lost in the semifinals against Kristoffer Zakarias Berg from Sweden, but then secured a bronze medal with a victory over the Hungarian Erik Szilvassi.
