You can't be a badass if you do soft shit.
🥊 Where It All Started
Hi! I'm Mohammad, 18 years young and a heavyweight boxer.
But trust me: I wasn't always a strong guy.At 15, I was the complete opposite. I was weak and had zero respect from my surroundings.
I was the definition of a "wimp"
⚡️The Turning Point
That all changed one night when I was out with friends and got into a confrontation with another group of teenagers.I froze, completely lost, not knowing how to defend myself.That broke me.For a man, there's almost nothing worse than knowing you came up short.
🎯 Day One
From that moment, I knew I had to change.I walked into the nearest boxing gym and took my first session.Back then, I had no big dreams, all I wanted was to be able to defend myself and earn some respect.The first months were inconsistent.
As I started training regularly and bulking up, everything changed.I gained over 60lbs within a year.Sure I gained fat too, but the muscle and strength I built were insane.
đź’Ą Finding My Power
More importantly, I realized I had real talent.My body adapted fast, my punching power grew and my sparring partners often pointed it out.One year of training completely changed my life.I became stronger, more confident, more social. For the first time, I had a punch that people actually felt.And at just 16, I thought:
Imagine what would happen if I kept this up for years?
🥇 Inspiration and Vision
My biggest inspiration was Mike Tyson. I knew every single one of his fights.I connected with him - both his character and his boxing style.Later, I also studied fighters like Canelo, Mayweather and Morrison.What fascinated me the most wasn’t just their skills, it was the money flowing through the sport.Getting paid to push your body to the limit and become a star?
That sounded like the perfect path for me.So I started preparing for competition.I lived with extreme discipline:
Up at 5 AM, running 4-5 km, calisthenics circuits with hundreds of reps, shadowboxing, weight training after school and boxing at night.My whole body was sore. I soaked in hot salt baths at night and even took painkillers to ease the pain.I truly believed: more is more.
🤕 Setbacks
But then came disappointment: One year of preparation, yet no fights.Events got canceled, no opponents were found, I got sick, injured or my parents refused to sign contracts since I wasn’t 18.Bit by bit, I lost my drive.The knockout blow came when I broke my wrist. The doctor told me I’d always feel pain when throwing hard punches because of how my bone healed.That crushed me.
I stopped training seriously, wasted time on games and social media.I felt empty and without purpose.
🧩 The Smarter Comeback
At 17, I got back into the gym.Even with poor sleep and bad nutrition, I noticed something:
I was still improving.And that’s when the fire returned.This time, I want to approach it smarter.I realized boxing isn’t just sport - it’s business.Too many talented fighters waste themselves in backyard fights or in the gym without ever getting paid properly.I promised myself:
If I train and fight like a pro, I want to get paid like a pro.That’s why I started social media.My vision: To build a community that gives value both ways.
📱 My Message
Without boxing and the mindset it gave me, I’d be wasting my potential.And that’s exactly the message I want to spread:
So many people have incredible potential but they waste it.My mission is to show people how to change completely and bring out their best - in boxing and in life.
🏆 The Goal
Now I’m back - training harder and smarter than ever.I’m building the foundation for my boxing career until I graduate from school.At 19 I’ll move abroad to start my pro career, with a few amateur fights as preparation.My ultimate goal is to get the WBC heavyweight belt by the age of 23.The competition is tough, time is short and I have five years to catch up.But I know I can do it - with smart and hard work.Boxing is my path, social media is my tool.
