After a long lay off, Ali lost in his last Nordic Championship resulting with a silver medal.[4] Ali has also competed in the European Youth Championship, ending with a loss to Gabil Mamedov from Russia who took silver medal.[5]

Ali is known for his unusual boxing style and cocky persona. Also, he is characterized by his highly athletic and hard-hitting boxing style, and formidable one-punch knockout power.[6][7][8]

Early life

Ali was born in 1994 in Tønsberg, Norway to Lebanese parents. He started boxing when he was 12 years old at the TK boxing club in his hometown of Tønsberg.[2] At the age of 12, he started his amateur career, and has become national junior champion eight times, and Scandinavian junior champion twice.[9]

Professional career

Ali has not had an easy transition to professional boxing. Ali was supposed to box in the undercard to Cecilia Brækhus in Oslofjord Convention Center, but the opponent resigned.[9] Afterwards, Ali traveled to South America and started his professional career there. He has been living in Latin America since then, and is currently residing in Guadalajara, Mexico.
