    How did Sumya Anani get into the boxing world?

    Sumya Anani started fighting as a form of self-defense due to a lack of funds before progressing to professional boxing. She competed in weightlifting in 1995 and 1996. She began boxing professionally in August 1996, mostly in and around Kansas City. On December 12, 1996, she made a name for herself when her rival Katherine Dallam sustained a major brain injury during a fight that resulted in a fourth-round knockout.

    Anani beat Andrea DeShong, a former opponent of world welterweight champion Christy Martin, in her ninth fight in March 1998. Then, on December 18 of that year, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Anani faced Martin herself. Martin has never been defeated in her previous 34 fights. Anani, on the other hand, dominated the battle from start to finish and emerged victoriously.

    With a unanimous six-round decision over veteran Andrea DeShong, she became the first woman to win a major sporting event. Anani made her professional debut at the International Women’s Boxing Hall of Fame in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 2016. Her performance in 1996, when she seriously wounded her opponent, made her popular.

    She, like many female boxers, came to the sport from a circuitous path. She took a self-defense course and worked as a massage therapist in Kansas City in the early 1990s. Her trainer was impressed by Anani’s athletic skill and strong punch and inspired her to try boxing. Outside of the ring, she works as a massage therapist, yoga teacher, and holistic healer.

     

    Is Sumya Anani dating someone?

    Sumya Anani, the Island Girl, is reportedly single and unmarried. She had at least one relationship in the past, according to the new database, but she has not said much about her partner. She is single and has no children.

    Anani, like many other actors, prefers to keep her personal and love lives to herself. She has chosen not to tell anyone about her marital status or divorce and wishes to keep it private for the time being. She is concentrating on advancing her education.
