In Pakistan, young female boxers are fighting back against those who say boxing isn't for girls. In Karachi's Lyari neighborhood, 13-year-old Hoorain Zahra trains at a local boxing gym, inspired by professional boxer Aliya Soomro, who also also grew up in Lyari. Coach Ustad Younis Qambrani has taught dozens of girls and women since opening his gym. Despite criticism from some in the community, he says even people who initially opposed girls' boxing eventually sent their daughters to train. Zahra says she wants to succeed in boxing and compete internationally.
