Mea Motu
Mea Motu, a formidable force in the world of boxing, has recently etched her name in the annals of sporting history.
In April 2023, Mea triumphed over Canada's Tania Walters to clinch the IBO Super Bantamweight World Title, a testament to her unparalleled skill and resilience in the ring. This victory at the Fight For Life event in Auckland not only showcased her prowess as a boxer but also marked a significant milestone: it was the first time women headlined the Fight For Life card, further cementing Mea's role in shaping the trajectory of women's boxing.
Her journey in boxing intertwines her athletic accomplishments with a deeply personal narrative of overcoming adversity. Mea's path has been one of remarkable transformation, where boxing emerged as a crucial tool for her mental health and wellbeing. She has been candid about her struggles with mental health and how boxing, particularly her affiliation with Peach Boxing, played a pivotal role in her recovery and revival. Her story is not just about her victories in the ring but also about her triumph over life's toughest challenges.
In 2022, Mea broke a 14-year record in New Zealand women’s boxing by holding the greatest number of national titles. This achievement is just one of many that illustrate her dedication and commitment to her sport. Her story resonates beyond the boxing community, serving as an inspiration to many who face their own battles.
As a speaker, Mea Motu is a beacon of inspiration and determination. She is scheduled to speak at various EQUALIZE events in Hamilton, Dunedin, and Wellington in July 2023. Her speeches are anticipated to be as powerful and impactful as her presence in the ring, providing key insights into her journey and the lessons learned along the way.
