Diana Prazak

Diana Prazak (34) joined a boxing gym at 27 years old. She had gone through what she now refers to as a fat stage in her life where her weight was approx. 87 to 90kgs. She was a workaholic, a heavy smoker and her self esteem was at an all time low. While drinking at a party her friend invited her to go boxing. They went to a trial class at a local boxing gym. Diana joined the gym that night.

After a year of training Diana had her first amateur fight. Her amateur career lasted a year and a half with 6 fights, 6 wins. In 2010 she turned professional and in 2012 she moved to Los Angeles and start training with Lucia Rijker. Up to her fight with Frida Wallberg, Diana was undefeated in her weight class (Super Feather Weight). The only loss (by points) in her professional career was against Holly Holmes two weight classes above her own.
