Pioneering Olympic Champion, Advocate for Equality, and Trailblazer in Women’s Boxing, Nicola Adams OBE, is a pioneering figure in women’s boxing and a celebrated Olympic champion whose life philosophy, “Believe in yourself, and you’ll be unstoppable,” perfectly encapsulates her journey.
Nicola’s boxing journey began at the age of 12 when she discovered her passion for the sport at the Burmantofts Amateur Boxing Club. With a dream to become an Olympian, she defied the odds in a male-dominated field, quickly rising through the ranks. Nicola became the first woman to represent England in boxing, clinching multiple national titles along the way.
Nicola made history in 2012 as the first woman to win an Olympic gold medal in boxing. She repeated her triumph at the 2016 Rio Olympics, cementing her place in history. Known for her skillful technique and charismatic presence in the ring, Nicola’s groundbreaking achievements helped elevate women’s boxing to new heights. Her remarkable journey was immortalized in the Amazon Prime documentary Lioness: The Nicola Adams Story (2021).
Beyond her Olympic medals, Nicola’s legacy extends through her honors, including MBE and OBE awards. She remains an inspiration to future generations with her unyielding spirit and commitment to change.
Nicola’s recent projects include her own boxing program, “Get Started with Boxing with Nicola Adams,” in collaboration with The Prince’s Trust. She also provided expert commentary for the BBC’s coverage of the Paris Olympics and partnered with Deloitte, the main Olympic sponsor, to launch their Paris Olympics campaign.
Since retiring from boxing in 2019 with an undefeated professional record, Nicola has pursued acting. She recently graduated from the prestigious Identity School of Acting (IDSA) in London, joining an impressive list of alumni such as John Boyega, Malachi Kirby, and Letitia Wright. Her foray into Hollywood marks a significant step in her career transition, and she is currently starring in the upcoming film The Gun on Second Street.
