India has been a dominant name in the world of Boxing. Hundreds of Boxers emerge as winners in various global platforms taking place around the world. The Khelo India Scheme has recently encouraged more young citizens of our country to join the world of sport. Often we come through various news where kids from poor families emerge as winners in local sporting competitions. Today, we are going to talk about two such children who emerged as winners in a local competition making their father proud.
According to a report, the father of the two children earlier aspired to be a boxer. He failed to follow his dream due to several financial and family issues. The father who once dreamt of being a great athlete is now fulfilling his dream through his children. Following their father’s footsteps, the two siblings started their boxing practice at a very young age. With some impressive performances in boxing and wushu (a Chinese Martial art), the two children have already clinched several gold medals.
Ayaan Ali and Afza Ali children of Amir Jan and Kairunnisa, a resident of N R Mohalla in Mysore, Karnataka, have amazed people with their impressive skill in boxing. In an Interview with Local 18, Ayaan said that he started taking his boxing training at just the age of five.
Ayaan is presently 11 years old and studies in 6th Grade. At this young age, he brought glory to his state by securing the first position at a multi-martial arts competition held in Raipur, Chhattisgarh. In Addition, the boy from Mysore has showcased some exceptional skills in various other sports like kickboxing, wrestling, and multiple other extracurricular activities.
