So begins writing Indian medium “devdiscurse” a few days before the World Boxing Championship in India.

The media continues writing saying that boxer MC Mary Kom will never forget 26-year-old Azize Nimani, who suffered badly in the second round of qualifications for the Rio 2016 Olympics.

European Championship bronze medallist at 51kg, Nimani admits that victory over Mary gave her career a stamp.

"The festival to Mary Kom in the qualifications for the 2016 Olympics was an important victory for me. Because Mary's a legend about boxing women and if you beat her, you beat them all. So, of course it was of great value to me after showing that I might be at the top of”, Azize said in the pre-participation interview on the Women's Boxing World that starts on November 15th.

Niman has a unique character with a blend of cultures that he proudly expresses.

I represent Europe”, she said laughing.

In the left bicep, she has a tattoo eagle and immediately continues the answer: “This is Albanian eagle and it's part of me. I don't want to hide it. Yeah, I box for Germany, but I'm proud of my Albanian blood”.

Her family moved to Germany in wartime, when she was only seven years old, Time broadcasts.

We arrived in Germany when I was seven, grew up in Germany, and it wasn't very difficult for me”, she added.

But it was not all easy for her older brother and sisters, who have memories of Kosovo's struggle for independence.

But you know, for my older brother and sisters, it was harder. Culturally, they have more roots than I do. If you want to be part of some cultures, you can be, no matter where you come from”, she added. “I am proud to have roots in Kosovo and proud to be German now. Because I'm boxing for Germany, and that's worth”.

The media report also mentioned football player Mesut Ozil's problem with German nationals. He left the national country after many years accusing him of racism and discrimination during the World in Russia. Ozili, of Turkish descent, was criticised after meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayip Erdogan.

When Niman was asked about Ozil's experience, he said that all people should work together, not against each other. There's always a way to understand each other”, she said.

Nimani has added that it has not been difficult to adapt to the German boxing national. Now nine years she says she has received the best treatment she can and has never felt insulted or humiliated because she is of German roots.
