Kickboxing Career

As a kid, Faisal always wanted to be a fighter, in life and in the ring. Unlike other kids who wish to be something different every second of the day, Faisal was determined to be a fighter. Any human would be intrigued with such conviction from a young boy, the question that follows is, how and what made him decide that he wanted to be a fighter. This is where the words of the great Muhammad Ali plays in, “We can’t be brave without experiencing fear”. As a child, Faisal was a subject to a lot of bullying. In his school days, he wasn’t the physically intimidating kind of child but rather a timid shy boy. In every area of life, strength has had its adverse effects on the weak. Faisal’s weakness propelled his thoughts in the direction of strength and endurance. To be a subject of bullying is witnessing fear to its highest level since a weak man can’t stand so much oppression physically and mentally. Faisal’s days of being the weak character were at its end since he realised that he wasn’t going to be the one to hide in the corner in a fight. He wanted to be the reason people never picked another fight. Him being a fighter wasn’t just a statement any young kid made but a life mantra that he carried ahead into winning championships around the world and leading a successful career.
