Ramla Ali, the first female boxer to represent Somalia in the Olympic Games, defeated her Dominican counterpart, Crystal Garcia Nova, in the first women's match in the Kingdom, which was held on the sidelines of the World Boxing Championship in heavyweight "Rage on the Red Sea" in Jeddah on Saturday.

It is worth noting that Ramla, who is currently 31 years old, was a young girl when she fled to the United Kingdom, with her family, to escape the civil war in her country, and managed to achieve several titles in the British Championships.
