You don’t just get up one day in Newfoundland and decide to win a national kickboxing championship.
Not in a province with limited fight camps. Not when you’re hundreds of kilometers away from Canada’s combat sports hotspots. And definitely not without being an absolute beast—physically, technically, and mentally.
But that’s exactly what Hady Tarek has done. Again and again.
He’s not just a fighter. He’s one of the most technically sound and mentally disciplined competitors in the Canadian amateur fight scene. His resume is thick with national medals, but his evolution is what truly sets him apart.
Breaking Down the Fighter
Hady doesn’t rely on flash. His foundation is built on technical mastery: distance control, tempo shifts, defensive discipline, and ring IQ. He’s the one downloading his opponent’s patterns, setting traps, cutting angles, and gradually breaking you down.
When you watch him fight under WAKO rules, it’s clear he understands the scoring system. Volume and clean technique matter more than brute force. Hady fights smart—stringing together combos with purpose, scoring with surgical precision, and keeping his output high without gassing. The man can fight in multiple styles and still impose his game.
It’s in the Grind—Not the Glamour
Ask anyone who follows Hady on social media, they’ll tell you this didn’t happen overnight. What you don’t see on the podium is the grind behind it:
- Daily multi-hour training sessions
- Conditioning circuits that push past exhaustion
- Technical drilling until it becomes muscle memory
Let’s look at the facts:
- 2025 WAKO National Champion
- 2024 Top Senior Male Athlete
- 2024 WAKO National Champion
- 2023 WAKO Team Canada Atlantic Tryouts Winner
- 2023 WAKO Kickboxing Nationals Bronze
- 2019 WKA Kickboxing Nationals Gold, Muay Thai Silver
- 2018 & 2019 Muaythai Canada Nationals Gold & Silver
- Multiple provincial and national medals across BJJ, MMA, boxing
That’s sustained technical excellence across styles and organizations. In a sport where most athletes specialize, Hady is proving that cross-discipline mastery is not only possible, it’s a weapon.
Setbacks Built His Engine
In 2023, Hady qualified for the WAKO Worlds in Portugal. Immigration delays kept him out. That would’ve crushed most fighters.
Hady came back in 2024 and put on a clinic at Nationals, reclaiming gold and being named the top male athlete in the country. He didn’t pout. He retooled and came back sharper. That says everything about his mental make-up.
The Mission Ahead: Abu Dhabi and Beyond
In 2025, Hady will represent Canada at:
- The WAKO World Senior Championships in Abu Dhabi
- The World Games in China
These are not just tournaments. These are global proving grounds. And Hady is stepping into them not just as a representative, but as a real contender.
Support the Mission
To make this leap, Hady needs backing—from Newfoundland and from Canada. Support isn’t just financial—it’s belief. In a fighter who trains in silence and competes with surgical intent. In a fighter who hasn’t just built a record—but a reputation.
