Perseverance
--Part 1
"Boxing can change lives and achieve seemingly impossible goals."
From a young age, Michele Aboro had a deep passion for boxing.At that time, she was rebellious and angry, and boxing became her outlet. However, in England, women were prohibited from participating in boxing, and no coach dared to risk training her because they could be arrested for breaking the law.Her response was: "As long as I'm awake, I want to box. I have no other choice."
In 1996, the UK lifted the ban on women's boxing, allowing Michele Aboro to become a boxer. By then, she had already been training for ten years. Despite the challenges, Michele never gave up—she was born for boxing.She proved her determination with an outstanding record: three-time World Kickboxing Champion, two-time K1 Champion, and ultimately, induction into the World Boxing Hall of Fame.

In 2012, she was diagnosed with breast cancer, causing her life to come to an abrupt halt.After a brief period of despair, she resolutely chose to fight the illness with the same determination she had in the boxing ring.During her battle with illness, Michele Aboro gained a new understanding of life: acceptance.
