Brussels – Abdeladim Mis, the Moroccan-born boxer based in Belgium, has clinched the prestigious WBF Intercontinental Title, further solidifying his status as a world-class athlete proudly representing Morocco on the international boxing stage.
Recently invited to a Moroccan cultural event in Brussels, Mis expressed heartfelt gratitude for the recognition he received from members of the local Moroccan community. “It meant a lot to me,” he said. “It felt like, finally, some people are starting to acknowledge the hard work I’ve put in all these years. It’s more than just a fight in the ring—it’s about representing where I come from.”
Despite the victory and growing support, Mis is still waiting for what he calls “the big doors” to open. “I’ve done this with very little backing,” he said. “I’ve carried the Moroccan flag into the ring each time with pride, but it’s time for more serious recognition—not just from the community, but from institutions and sponsors that can help push my career to the next level.”
Winning the WBF Intercontinental Title is no small feat, yet Mis remains a largely under-the-radar figure outside hardcore boxing circles. His story is one of persistence—training under modest conditions, fighting tough opponents across Europe, and staying focused on one goal: putting Moroccan boxing on the global map.
However, the road has not been without obstacles. Mis is still in the process of adjusting his legal and professional status in Belgium, a bureaucratic hurdle that continues to slow his momentum. On top of that, he lacks the kind of major sponsorship deals many of his peers rely on to sustain their careers.
“The talent is there. The discipline is there. The victories are there. What’s missing is the exposure,” he emphasized.
As Abdeladim Mis looks to build on his recent title win, he is actively seeking a major sponsor and media support that can help amplify his platform—not just for himself, but for young athletes who look up to him. “I want to be an example for Moroccan youth—both in Belgium and back home—that you can fight for your dreams, even when the spotlight doesn’t find you right away,” he said.
Mis continues to train daily, hoping that his growing list of accolades will eventually bring the breakthrough he has worked so long for. Until then, he remains the quiet champion—resilient, proud, and unwavering in his mission to represent Morocco with honor and heart.
