Alhamdulillah. 🙏🏽
I can’t even put into words what this moment means. Every tear, every bruise, every setback, it all led me here. Winning the IBF International Title wasn’t just about a belt.. it was about proving to myself that everything I’ve poured into this sport, every sacrifice, was worth it.
From the early mornings to the lonely nights, from pushing through pain to finding strength, this was built on pure heart and faith. Those closest to me have seen my journey, seen me fight my way up in the division, and to stand here now as the champion.. it means everything.
To my coaches, my team, and everyone who’s been in my corner
@coachakkawy @akkawyboxingclub @coach_watkins @raymorcomb @coachsubotic thank you for believing, for pushing me, for helping me become the fighter and the woman I am today. None of this happens alone.
A special thank you to
@sam_labruna for making all of this possible and giving me the platform to showcase what I can do. Your belief and effort made this moment happen.
And to my good friend
@beylal_racheha thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping bring this fight to life.
The team on fight week who made everything so smooth on fight night
@styllsjay @billiejeantheartist @vahigo @thecombatphysioguy thank you.
To those who doubted me, who counted me out, who thought I couldn’t do it, thank you too. You made me dig deeper. You made me fight harder. Because belief has always been my power, and I never stopped believing in myself. The power of manifestation is real.
This win isn’t just about boxing. It’s about resilience, faith, and purpose. It’s for every person who’s ever been told “you can’t.”
The sky was never the limit, it’s only the beginning.
I am Mai Soliman. I am that champion. And there’s so much more coming. 🫶🏽
