Kofi Abalo

“Boxing is more than just a sport to me. It's a way of life.”

Kofi grew up in the bustling city of Chennai, India, but his heart lies in Togo, West Africa. His passion for boxing began when he was just a young boy, watching Muhammad Ali fights with his father. From then on, he was hooked, and spent every moment he could in the gym. Though he's been in and out of the ring over the years, Kofi always finds his way back to the sport he loves.

What's been your most memorable moment in the ring?

Definitely when I won my first professional fight. It was like all my hard work had finally paid off.

How has boxing helped you in your personal life?

It's taught me discipline and perseverance, and given me a sense of purpose. Without boxing, I don't know where I'd be today.
