This boxer has accomplished more in the sport of boxing in 8 years than most will in a lifetime.  Moe Zawadi, sixteen years old, was first introduced to boxing through his brothers friend, Mark Smither.  He was only 8 years old when he first walked through the doors of Uptown Boxing Club in Barrie Ontario. 

“Jack once told me the first time he saw me throw a punch, he knew there was something in me.  From that day on, he has been in my corner and by my side.  He has helped me through everything in this sport, working with my diet and training when I have a big fight coming up.  We both think that I’ll become a 2020 Olympic champion!”

Moe is in grade 11 at St. Peter’s Catholic High School, in Barrie Ontario.  He loves training when he can because he wants to be the best at his level.  In his words, I like to surround myself with champions”.  Moe’s life goals, besides boxing, include becoming a personal trainer, so he can work with younger boxers who are trying to take the same journey as him.

Moe’s Cancer Story

My grandfather, my mother’s dad, passed away 10 years ago in Lebanon after battling cancer.  I want to take this opportunity to be able to fight on this show to support a great cause and to continue my grandfathers fight!
