<p>Efasha Kamarudin 并不容易被人推倒。作为一个孩子，她在父母的建议下学习了空手道，父母希望她能够在遭遇欺凌或攻击时自我保护。\nKamarudin，朋友们称她为 “Fash”，非常喜欢空手道，后来又报名参加了泰拳和巴西柔术课程。她喜欢这些格斗运动所要求的专注、纪律和韧性。作为青少年，她还踢足球并进行攀岩。\n 如今，这位来自新加坡的 34 岁职业拳击手在拳击擂台上如鱼得水。她是一位强硬的竞争者——在压力下保持冷静，坚定立场，并在局势混乱时坚持自己的比赛计划。\n 她为达到这一点付出了很多努力。\n2016 年，Kamarudin，战斗名为 “The Face”，成为第一位赢得国际拳击金牌的新加坡女性。这是在香港城市杯上举行的，该赛事是由香港拳击协会主办的年度拳击比赛，现在称为中国香港拳击协会。\n\n 在 2025 年中，她在世界拳击理事会的超蝇量级中排名第 15，竞争者的体重在 51 公斤（112.4 磅）到 52.2 公斤之间。\n 她目前正在努力提升排名，希望在 40 岁生日之前就能登顶。\nKamarudin 进入拳击界的时间可以追溯到十多年前，当时她在踢足球时受伤，迫使她暂停训练。她将训练转移到健身房，教练建议她尝试拳击。后来他发现她有天赋，并邀请她参加比赛。\n“当时新加坡拳击协会的会长注意到了我的表现，并邀请我加入国家队。他们正在为 2015 年东南亚运动会做准备，试图组建一支队伍，” Kamarudin 说。\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n 在 Instagram 上查看此帖子\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n 由 Fash The Face (@fash_theface) 分享的帖子\n\n\n\n 她决定更加认真地对待这项运动，尽管她全职工作作为幼儿园教师，只能在下班后训练。\nKamarudin 在接下来的几年里定期进行拳击训练。一位拳击推广人建议她转为职业拳击。她的男朋友——现在的丈夫——拉塞尔·哈里森鼓励她这样做。她在 27 岁时于 2018 年转为职业拳击手。\n“拉塞尔对我的拳击生涯起到了重要作用，” Kamarudin 说，她在 2016 年遇到了这位澳大利亚人。他是新加坡斯巴达拳击俱乐部的首席执行官，也是她的教练。\n“在他的指导下，我得到了很大的提升，” 她补充道。\n 在 2025 年，她参加了五场比赛，她说这 “很多”。精英职业拳击手通常每年只参加两到三场比赛，因为训练和恢复所需的时间较长。\n 她在职业生涯中赢得了 11 场比赛中的 9 场，1 场平局和 1 场失利。在 2025 年 8 月，她被澳大利亚选手贾斯敏·帕尔击败，贾斯敏是格斗运动传奇人物约翰·韦恩·帕尔的女儿。她在 11 月在泰国对阵法国拳手洛伊齐亚·坎帕纳时取得了反弹胜利。\n“我想达到顶级水平，所以我尽可能多地参加比赛，” 她说。\n\nKamarudin 和哈里森于 2021 年结婚，他们有一个女儿。扎赫拉今年两岁。\n 直到她成为母亲，Kamarudin 才意识到拳击对她生活的影响有多大。\n“我在生完孩子后抑郁了几周，但我知道这是正常的，因为我经历了荷尔蒙和其他身体变化，” 她说。\n“但我没有像许多亚洲新妈妈那样把自己限制在家里，避免身体活动，而是决定回到健身房。\n“起初我没有进行强度训练。我在这里那里训练，很快我就回到了擂台上。能够有这样的情绪发泄渠道感觉很好。\n“这也让我重新找回了自己。在生下女儿后，我觉得自己失去了个性，而回归拳击帮助我克服了这一点。”\n\n 研究表明，拳击可以通过多种方式改善心理健康和情绪福祉。2022 年发表在《美国生活方式医学杂志》上的一项综述发现，非接触拳击是发泄愤怒和攻击的健康途径，降低压力，提高自尊，改善生活质量，并减少焦虑和抑郁等症状。\n2023 年的一项研究显示，这项运动鼓励心理韧性——从逆境或压力中 “反弹” 的能力，以及良好适应挑战的能力。\nKamarudin 可以证明拳击的变革力量。除了帮助她度过她称之为 “黑暗时期” 的产后阶段，她表示，这项运动多年来在提升自信心方面也发挥了奇妙的作用。\n“它帮助我解决了身体形象问题。我一直有运动员的体型，我曾经会和我瘦弱的妹妹比较。我还曾经限制碳水化合物的摄入，认为碳水化合物会让人发胖，” 她说。\n“拳击让我意识到我并不大或肥胖，只是肌肉发达，而肌肉发达是件好事，因为这意味着我很强壮。这真的改变了我对自己的看法。让我更加欣赏自己的身体。”\n\n 她希望看到更多年轻女性参与拳击，因为这是一项极好的全身锻炼。但这不仅仅是保持健康或减肥的方式。它可以帮助参与者感到更有力量。\n“许多人开始拳击是因为他们想学习一项新技能或缓解压力。无论原因是什么，它都能让你对自己感觉更好。当你训练并看到成果时，你会觉得自己几乎可以做任何事情。”\n 对于那些担心拳击危险的女性，Kamarudin 表示，选择一个让你感到安全并遵循安全预防措施的健身房非常重要，这样你就不会受伤或淤青。加入一个女性会员较多的健身房可能有助于创造归属感。\nKamarudin 目前在训练和母亲的角色之间忙碌，她承认这 “困难且令人疲惫”，尤其是在准备比赛时。\n 她还与朋友共同拥有一家公司。2022 年推出的 BXHR（发音为 “box-her”）专注于女性拳击手套。\nKamarudin 的终极目标是成为 “无可争议的冠军”，这意味着要获得来自四个拳击管理机构的主要拳击金腰带：WBA（世界拳击协会）、WBC（世界拳击理事会）、IBF（国际拳击联合会）和 WBO（世界拳击组织）。\n“我现在一个都没有，但我给自己四年的时间来实现这一目标，直到我获得所有四条金腰带，” 她自信地说。\n“我相信我能做到。”\n 喜欢你所读的内容吗？在 Facebook、X 和 Instagram 上关注 SCMP Lifestyle。你还可以在这里注册我们的电子新闻。\n</p>

<p>新加坡职业拳击手 Efasha Kamarudin 利用她的格斗运动背景在拳击领域取得了卓越成就。她于 2016 年成为首位赢得国际拳击金牌的新加坡女性，并在 2025 年被世界拳击理事会评选为全球第 15 名。Kamarudin 的拳击之路始于一次受伤，促使她在 2018 年转为职业拳击手。在平衡幼儿园教师的职业和母亲的角色时，她强调拳击对她心理健康和韧性的积极影响，尤其是在经历产后挑战之后</p>

<p>Efasha Kamarudin is not easily pushed around. As a child, she took up karate on the advice of her parents, who wanted her to be able to defend herself if she was ever bullied or attacked.\nKamarudin, or “Fash” as she is known to friends, enjoyed karate so much that she later enrolled in Muay Thai and Brazilian jiu-jitsu classes. She liked that these combat sports required focus, discipline and resilience. As a teenager, she also played football and was a rock climber.\nToday, the 34-year-old professional boxer from Singapore feels at home in the boxing ring. She is a tough competitor – staying composed under pressure, standing her ground and sticking to her game plan when things get scrappy.\nShe worked hard to get to this point.\nIn 2016, Kamarudin, whose fight name is “The Face”, became the first Singaporean woman to win an international boxing gold medal. It was at the Hong Kong City Cup, an annual boxing competition hosted by the Hong Kong Boxing Association, now known as The Boxing Association of Hong Kong, China.\n\nIn mid-2025, she was ranked 15th in the world by the World Boxing Council in the super flyweight division, whose competitors weigh 51kg (112.4lb) to 52.2kg.\nShe is currently working her way up the ranks and hopes to take the top spot well before her 40th birthday.\nKamarudin’s entry into boxing started over a decade ago, when she injured her foot playing football, forcing her to take time out. She moved her training to the gym, where an instructor suggested that she try boxing. He later saw that she had talent and asked her to take part in a match.\n“The then president of the Singapore Boxing Federation noticed my performance and invited me to join the national team. They were preparing for the 2015 Southeast Asian Games and were trying to put a squad together,” Kamarudin says.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nView this post on Instagram\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA post shared by Fash The Face (@fash_theface)\n\n\n\nShe decided to take the sport more seriously, even though she worked full time as a preschool teacher and could only train after work.\nKamarudin boxed regularly over the next few years. A boxing promoter suggested she turn professional. Her then boyfriend – now husband – Russell Harrison encouraged her to do so. She turned pro in 2018, at the age of 27.\n“Russell has been instrumental to my career as a boxer,” says Kamarudin, who met the Australian in 2016. He is CEO of Spartans Boxing Club in Singapore and her coach.\n“I’ve developed so much under his guidance,” she adds.\nIn 2025, she fought in five competitions, which she says is “a lot”. Elite professional boxers typically take on only two or three fights a year due to the amount of time required for training and recovery before and after.\nShe has won nine of 11 bouts in her career, with one draw and one loss. In August 2025, she was defeated by Australian competitor Jasmine Parr, daughter of combat sports legend John Wayne Parr. She had a bounce-back win against French boxer Loetizia Campana in Thailand in November.\n“I want to make it to the top level, so I’m doing as many fights as I can,” she says.\n\nKamarudin and Harrison, who married in 2021, have a daughter together. Zahra turns two this year.\nIt was not until she became a mother that Kamarudin realised how much of an impact boxing has had on her life.\n“I was depressed for a few weeks after giving birth, but I knew it was normal because of the hormonal and other physical changes I was going through,” she says.\n“But instead of confining myself to the house and avoiding physical activity, like many new mums in Asia do, I decided to go back to the gym.\n“I didn’t work out intensely at first. I trained a little here and there, and pretty soon I was back in the ring. It felt great having this outlet for all the emotions I was experiencing.\n“It also reconnected me with myself. After having my daughter, I felt like I’d lost my sense of individuality, and returning to boxing helped me overcome that.”\n\nResearch shows that boxing can help improve mental health and emotional well-being in a number of ways. A review published in 2022 in the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine found that non-contact boxing is a healthy outlet for anger and aggression, lowers stress, increases self-esteem, improves quality of life, and reduces symptoms of conditions like anxiety and depression.\nA 2023 study revealed that the sport encourages psychological resilience – the ability to “bounce back” from adversity or stress and adapt well to challenges.\nKamarudin can vouch for the transformative power of boxing. Besides helping her get through what she calls a “dark period” after having her baby, she says that the sport has, over the years, worked wonders on her self-confidence.\n“It’s helped me with my body-image issues. I’ve always had an athletic build, and I used to compare myself to my younger sister, who was skinny. I also used to restrict my carb intake, thinking that carbs were fattening,” she says.\n“Boxing reminds me that I’m not big or chunky at all, just muscular, and being muscular is a good thing because it means I’m strong. It’s really changed how I see myself. It’s made me appreciate my body more.”\n\nShe would like to see more young women take up boxing as it offers an excellent total-body workout. But it is more than just a way to keep fit or lose weight. It can help participants feel more empowered.\n“Many people start boxing because they want to learn a new skill or relieve stress. Whatever the reason, it can make you feel better about yourself. When you train and see results, you feel like you can do just about anything.”\nFor women who are concerned about boxing being dangerous, Kamarudin says it is important to select the right gym, one in which you feel safe and that follows safety precautions, so you do not end up bruised or injured. Joining a gym with many female members may help create a sense of belonging.\nKamarudin currently juggles training and motherhood, something that she admits is “hard and exhausting”, especially when she is preparing for a competition.\nShe also co-owns a business with a friend. Launched in 2022, BXHR (pronounced “box-her”) specialises in boxing gloves for women.\nKamarudin’s ultimate goal is to be an “undisputed champion”, which would entail holding major boxing belts from the sport’s four governing bodies: the WBA (World Boxing Association), the WBC (World Boxing Council), the IBF (International Boxing Federation) and the WBO (World Boxing Organisation).\n“I have none right now, but I’m giving myself four more years of doing this professionally until I hold all four belts,” she says confidently.\n“I believe that I can get there.”\nLike what you read?

新加坡职业拳击手如何运用擂台上的技能来应对生活中的其他挑战
