The female lady of the boxing arena ,Zarina Tsoloeva is generally mistaken as Angelina Jolie. Undoubtedly the resemblance is striking and Jolie’s fans accept Zarina as if she was the star herself. For Zarina ,this gives her ample thrills and is really pleased with the development. Afterall ,for this Khazakstan born boxing beauty ,a mere resemblance to a beauty of the film world represents dazzling stuff.
Perhaps her accomplishments in the boxing world have not fetched her such fame and acknowledgement as the striking resemblance to Jolie. Zarina has gone so far as to say that mere resemblance boosts her ego and she cannot help feeling flattered at being mistaken for Angelina who is married to Brad Pitt,a big star. Zarina is a south-paw and stated “I won’t lie, I love this actress and am amazed by her beauty.
“The whole world tries to imitate her looks, but I do not think we look similar. Maybe some features are more or less like hers, but we definitely look different.” Zarina has also shared that her favourite Angelina Jolie movie is Mr and Mrs Smith.She also agrees that her family were taken aback when she first took up boxing. But through various accomplishments she proved she had the talent and the guts to be a good boxer. Now the parents are more favourably inclined ,especially after she picked up the bronze medal in the Kazakh national championships .
It was in the semi finals that she lost to the ultimate winner and right now she is poised for competing in the Rio Olympics this summer.Her preparations are in full swing under the guidance of her coach Alexander Vistoskiy who fondly remembers his first meeting with the talented athlete and how he evaluated her. He said: “I asked her to do a couple of hits. Immediately I realised that she is an incredible talent. In five minutes, she learned as much as most people would learn in a year.” Female boxing became an event for the first time at the London Olympics in 2012 and brought forth and yielded the world’s first 12 female Olympic medallist boxers.
