KEY TAKEAWAYS• How did you feel when you lost?I was undefeated for 13 years but as you approach any fight you always know that one day you are going to lose, it’s ultimately in God’s hands. It is a sport, and someone wins, and someone loses each time you fight. On the day I felt I did my best, I had challenged myself in training and learnt lots through the process. In the next fight, I’m sure I’ll be the winner. My mindset is very strong and losing has put fire in my heart about being the winner next time I fight. • When did you first realise you wanted to fight?As a child, I took part in lots of different sports and loved all of them. Atuniversity, I was approached by a scout as a potential fighting prospect due to my good eye to hand coordination. Initially, I wasn’t convinced it was for me as I don’t like confrontation. When I did start sparring I realised that when punches were being thrown at me Iimmediately responded. At this point, there was the realisation that along with my coordination and cardio I had ‘heart’, and this is not something that someone can teach you, it is a part of you. I like to compete and had been competitive in all my sports so after 6 months of training I took part in my first fight. I lost because of an elbow injury but knew then that I had found my sport. I entered full-time training at 19 although my family didn’t agree as they didn’t think it was a suitable sport for a girl, but I believed in myself. • What’s it like being a woman in your sport?It’s a big responsibility as you have to think about how people are watching you. It’s nice being a champion but being a people’s champion is the most important role I have. I have the opportunity to share my life and the journey I have been on to become a fighter. I have used my position in the sport to fight for equal rights and opportunities for women.
