Boxing
«I was born on September 13, 1989 in Baku. I have one sister. My mother is a housewife, my father is employed. I am the only sportswoman in the family, although my mother was a basketball player in her younger years, my uncle was a judo fighter and my father was also an amateur sportsman».
«I often had problems with other kids at school. I was naughty and would sometimes fight with them. I had plenty energy to exert as well as carrying excessive weight at school. My mother often wondered if I would ever be slim. She took me to a boxing session one day. At the time I weighed 120 kg. I started boxing to get slim but gradually became fond of it and boxing became part of my life».
