Answer key:

Laila Ali was born on December 30, 1977 in the USA. Ali began boxing when she was 18 years old. She started her fights in 1999 and finished in 2007. Her father is a champion and the most famous boxer in the world. When she told him that she wanted to box professionally, he was very unhappy because boxing is a very dangerous profession. “I move in the ring just like my dad and I am very strong”, she said. She is tall (178 cm) and has 75 kg. Her coach trained her like a man. She is a niece of famous boxer Rahman Ali, the younger brother of Muhammad Ali who was an Olympic champion. In her first match, on October 8, 1999 Ali boxed April Fowler and won. Although this was Ali’s first match, many journalists came because she was Muhammad Ali’s daughter.
Then Ali had eight wins one by one. On the evening of June 8, 2001, Ali and Frazier finally met. Ali won and became a world champion again. She had 24 fights and she won all of them. In the match on February 2, 2007 in South Africa Ali defeated O’Neil. It was Ali’s last professional fight.
