A Fighter&#;s Beginnings
Born Mohammed Qissi on September 12, , in Oujda, Morocco, Michel Qissi&#;s life has been a testament to the fighting spirit. Moving to Brussels with his brother at a young age, Qissi&#;s towering 6&#;2&#; frame would later become a signature feature in his film roles. But before the cameras rolled, it was in the boxing rings of Belgium that Qissi first made his mark. An amateur boxing champion by 17, Qissi&#;s promising career was cut short by elbow problems, but not before he claimed the title of Belgium Champion.
His martial arts prowess didn&#;t end with boxing; Qissi also trained in Shōtōkan Karate, Muay Thai, and Kickboxing. It was this dedication to martia
