Fadi Merza: Withdrawal from resignation - the legend conquers the ring back!

Thailand - On November 30, 2024, the six-time Thaibox world champion Fadi Merza (46) entered the boxing ring for the last time, but unlike planned, the fighter athlete immediately decided to revise his decision. In the run -up to his big fight against the Hungarian Pal Olah, Merza was particularly pleased with the presence of his nine -year -old son Michel, who wanted to experience the father live in the ring - a premiere for the two. "That motivates me incredibly!" Merza proudly said when he recorded the preparations for "his last dance". But during the fight, Merza felt that he was not yet ready to stop. After a clear victory in six rounds, he announced: "I decided in the middle of the fight not to stop", the boxer said in an interview after his triumph, such as reported.

The return of Fadi Merza comes without a fight after ten years. "I read everywhere: 'Legend Fadi Merza'. That triggered mixed feelings in me," he told the "crown". Although it is referred to as legend, it does not feel old. Merza, who was preparing for his fight through targeted training in Thailand, is now on the best way to his fitness. With a weight of currently 74 kilograms, he almost reached his desired struggle weight of 72.5 kilograms for the upcoming Bounce Fight Night on April 6th. His wife Ines is concerned, but wants to support him. "She is very worried, says I should take care of myself," said Merza, while at the same time he is determined to continue his way, as krone.at reported.
