Nili Block (Hebrew: נילי בלאק; born January 16, 1995) is a professional Muay Thai and kickboxing fighter. She is a four-time Muay Thai and two-time kickboxing world champion representing Israel.[1][2][3]
At age 11, Nili began representing Israel in international competitions as a member of the Israeli Women's American Flag Football National Team.[3][8] She gave up the sport in 2012 in order to focus more fully on a single sport: Muay Thai.[9]
As her sports are not supported by Olympic-style budgets, Nili cleans homes and delivers newspapers to pay for her travel and training.[6]
Kickboxing and Muay Thai career
When she was 10 years old, Nili's mother suggested she learn kickboxing, as a manner of self-defense.[2][5] She trained at a kickboxing academy at Teddy Stadium in Jerusalem.[3]
Her coach her entire career has been Benny Cogan, who is also Israel's national kickboxing and Muay Thai coach, and she is trained as well by Eddie Yusupov.[3][11][4][6]
Nili is designated as an "outstanding athlete" by the Israel Defense Forces, which allows her to be in a special program that permits her to compete in international kickboxing competitions.[5]
In 2012 she became world champion in the flyweight class (50.5-53.5 kilos) at the 10th Amateur/Pro-Am Muay Thai Championships in Bangkok, Thailand.[6]
In May 2015, when she was in 12th grade, Block won a gold medal in her age category in the XIX KickBox World Cup in the 52- to 56-kilo category in Hungary.[10]
In October 2015, Block won a gold medal at the Kickboxing World Championships in Belgrade, Serbia, in the 60 kg (132 pound) senior division.[2][5][7][12] She said: "It is such a good feeling [being a champion].... it’s so special to become a symbol in the world as a Jew and as an Israeli. They didn’t expect me to win, coming from such a small country. Who would have expected it?"[5] That year she was named Female Athlete of the Year by the Federation of Non-Olympic Competitive Sports in Israel (Ayelet).[5][7]
In 2017, Nili won the gold medal at the Muay Thai World Championship in the 60 kg division.[2][14]
She is also the two-time defending European champion.[2] In October 2017, she won the gold medal at the Thai Boxing European Championships in the women's 60 kg division in Paris, France.[15]
