Hello, my name is Analina Henderson, and I’m a 14-year-old amateur boxer from Anchorage, Alaska. Boxing isn’t just a sport to me—it’s my passion and my purpose. I train at Alaska Boxing Academy, a place that has become my second home. Every day, I push myself to improve, no matter how I feel. Whether I’m happy, tired, sad, or frustrated, I show up and put in the work because I know what it takes to be great.
Boxing has instilled in me discipline, focus, and dedication. It has shaped who I am and continues to push me beyond my limits. In October 2024, I won the International Women’s Boxing Tournament in Seattle and claimed victories at the Gene Lewis Invitational Tournament in both 2023 and 2024.
My ultimate goal is to make history and become one of the greatest boxers of all time. I know that staying disciplined and committed is the key to reaching the top. But for now, my focus is on maintaining my winning streak and making it to nationals.
