Muslim teen knocks out boxing stereotypes by wearing hijab

Share
The International Boxing Association (AIBA) last month lifted a ban on hijabs and other full-body uniforms that fighters wear for religious reasons.
She said: 'Boxing keeps me sane and keeps me happy, I absolutely love it.
'I started just for fun but I've really fallen in love with the sport.
'I was bit worried at first about being a hijabi girl going into a boxing gym. It's not what people are used to.
'But everyone has been so nice and supportive. No one minds that I wear a hijab in the ring.
'It doesn't affect my boxing at all, some people think it might make it hard to move but I forget I'm even wearing it.'
GO GIRL! :)
