Kickboxing Star Ambar Tesoudali Prepares for Big Match in Genk
Rabat – Ambar Tesoudali, a 13-year-old Moroccan-Belgian kickboxing champion, is ready to step into the ring once again. She will face Turkish fighter Erva Meryem Eren at the upcoming IFP Fight Series event.
The fight will take place on 27 September 2025 at Limburghal in Genk, Belgium, in front of an expected crowd of 3,000 fans.
The thrilling Youth Division bout will feature Morocco's fast, precise, and technically gifted Tesoudali against Turkiye's sharp, experienced, and determined Eren.
Tesoudali took to social media to express her excitement ahead of the game, saying she is 'ready' to take on the challenge.
Ambar is a rising star in kickboxing. Last year, she won the youth championship in the 46 kg category at an IFP event in Germany. She started training in martial arts at age five, first in Taekwondo, then moved to kickboxing at eight years old.
She has won praise from legends in the sport for her skills and technique, including kickboxing icons like Ernesto Hoost, who called her the 'queen of the ring,' and Andy Sauwer.
Besides her impressive fighting career, she also helped in the Belgian film Patsers 2, directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, as a boxing expert and stand-in. The film premiered in Antwerp in February 2025.
Even with her busy athletic life, Ambar dreams of becoming a doctor and her family supports her goal to do well in school. Tags: Ambar TesoudaliKickboxing
