Nadir Baloch, is an internationally recognized Pakistani boxer. Who is ranked the number 1 boxer in Pakistan and is ranked at 7th position in Asia. He has a record of 10-0. While all of his victories were knockouts.
In an interview he expressed his feeling about boxing as a career and how difficult, it can get in Pakistan
to get the proper support and motivation to keep on moving forward. In 2016 Nadir turned pro and has since been the beacon of light for young boxers trying to make a way in the boxing community of Pakistan. He was dishearten by Pakistan Boxing Federation (PBF) lashing out at them for not prioritizing athletes.
His Beginning
Ever since the beginning, Nadir has always been a hard worker. Nadir was 6 years old when he won his first fight. It was at the Lyari Fight Club, where young Nadir first got taste of his passion. After the winning the prize money of 100 Pak Rupees, he knew that this was going to be his future. And since that day he never looked back and was fully fueled for his fights to come.
His Dream
Nadir recalls his Grandfather’s (Qadir Baksh Baloch) wish; “at least one boxer from our family should change the course of Pakistani boxing”. “I know this was his dream but it is mine now”, Nadir owned his grandfather’s dream and is now on the road to alter the course of boxing in Pakistan.
Nadir Baloch, followed the steps of his friend planned to go professional. Leaving PBF behind he set out on his own to pursue his grandfather’s dream and overcome all obstacles that are too come in his way. He fought his last amateur boxing match at the Olympics qualifiers in 2015.
Pakistanis tend to celebrate boxers in their own unique way. Some prefer being patriotic by supporting boxers of Pakistani origin such as Amir Khan. While others have a profound taste of international boxers like Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr.
