12-Year-Old Prodigy Clinches Fifth World Kickboxing Title in Abu Dhabi
Amira Tahri, a 12-year-old Moroccan-origin kickboxer, has won her fifth world kickboxing championship title in Abu Dhabi.
The girl, who lives in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, won the championship by defeating the French Shaina Moniek. She had already won her fourth world champion title against the same opponent in 2019.
On Instagram, Amira expressed her joy at this new title. "I did it again," she wrote with a photo of her fifth victory.
Amira Tahri, nicknamed "The Wondergirl", has already won several European titles. She started her career at the age of 6 and is trained by her father. She had even managed to impress Mike Tyson, who had invited her to the United States a few years ago.
