Sameenah Toussaint was first taken to Northolt Amateur Boxing Club by her dad aged 10 and despite dreading the training sessions, she kept showing up.
The featherweight struggled being ‘roughed up’ by the boys but soon she was holding her own and made her Commonwealth Games debut at Birmingham 2022.
Toussaint reached the women's featherweight quarter-finals, defeating Zoe Andrews of Wales en route to the last eight.
Since 2015, the 21-year-old has earned six national titles, five junior and one senior, and two European under-22 bronze medals.
