NINE-year-old boxing star Kira Makogonenko is so good that she’s having trouble finding boys willing to get in the ring with her. Nicknamed the “Pink Panther” due to the colour of her boxing outfit, the undefeated nine-year-old's lightning-fast punches have won her a total of nine fights - half of them against boys in an older age category. Her deadly shots and quick footwork were honed with the help of her father and coach Artem Makogonenko.Little Kira, from Kharkov, Ukraine, has only been in training for one year, but wowed audiences online with videos of her shadow sparring with her dad while blindfolded.

5 hours a day work outs...and here I'm looking at my 1 mile walk like it is mount everest.
Lmao
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂🤣🤣🤣😅 same here
Forced 5hrs a day workout
yea but when we were that age it would be nothing!
I felt so sorry for the girl who lost when she was anticipating Kira to solace her but it was delayed. And what a wonderful moment when Kira hugged her
Jax Nean me too i dont matter if its Boxing or somthing Else always show respect
after running around the ring and doing a backflip
Jax Nean
Jax Nean she has good sportsmanship
no
I don't think she's that cocky.
I think you need to believe in yourself if you want to step in to the ring or you've already lost.
She knows what she wants, I don't think that's being cocky personally.
Boo Boo So whats cocky to you? To me she seems confident and cocky
PenDay, she’s not cocky because she believes in herself and she’s only 9. Most kids that age think they’re the best
look hes a girl hit him hard he out
she is not the best boxer
Nah, she's pretty cocky bro. Typical behavior for children.
Lmao she did a backflip on the ring. Savage!
x Blue x ikr
x Blue x right she’s better than most boys and boxing and flips!(around her age)
I feel ashamed after seeing that.. 😁😁
It was also adorable how she hugged the other girl after that :)
Nocturne I’m a kick boxer and we always hug after a fight
It was so cute when she gave the girl a hug after winning she is very confident but not cocky 👍🏼👍🏼
Everyone does that unless their really pissed
I believe she made it a point to do her flips before giving the hug.
@the1_that_dgaf Broooo why are you so pressed it had nothing to do with another
Fun fact...
Kira means killer/murderer in japanese.
Adyewur Fartoos wow, did not know that hehe....
Adyewur Fartoos Really???
Rita So Sweet Yes!
I know this cuz I watched Death Note 😂😂😂
Jin's mario doll that he threw in Just One Day Army!
She has incredible sportsmanship which helps her stand out as a powerful winner but still remains with her loyalty and courage inside

*Hell yeah baby girl! Dad won't ever have to worry about her man laying a hand or anything. Lol*
ZhaWin GutierrezFAM ikr! 😏
ZhaWin GutierrezFAM the man could one hit her tho lol
Che Guevara why would you say that tho??
Che Guevara ’LoL’ tf is wrong with you
ZhaWin GutierrezFAM If he was smart, he'd have her move onto bigger and better things like Wrestling, BJJ, Mauy Thai, etc. Really expand her arsenal and learning.
P.S. I had to edit "Muay Thai". Stupid autocorrect made it "Must Thai." 😆
I can't even punch an ant
Because your scared.🙈😨😵😵🙀🙈😱🙈😱😱😱😱😱😱😨💀😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😰
2 ManyPoisenChickens awww hehe
2 ManyPoisenChickens I'd pay to watch that fight. You vs Ant. Let's make it happen 😂
2 ManyPoisenChickens Bruh
2 ManyPoisenChickens lol
All these strength in this small body . Keep up the good work girl. Damn
Fawzy Muhammad Koné thanks 😊
Let's hope she doesn't have a death note lol
epicdragon023 😂 I was thinking the same thing...Cuz,ya know...Kira...Death note...I'll show myself out...
@Maile Yutangco not the point though
She doesn't even need it 😂
@@peekjhon750 XD
Damn. I'd be so proud if that was my kid.
She's truly an impressive fighter for as young as she is. Amazing hand speed and wonderful skills. My main concern is for her future well being. I mean how much is really known and understood about the effects of repeated blows to the body, especially the head, of young children like this. Certainly it is up to her parents and the boxing officials to decide but I do hope they are getting input from qualified doctors. Again I'm very impressed with her skills but at the same time concerned about her long term health. Best wishes to her in the future both in and out of the ring.
As far as my educated guess goes.. it's fine at that age as I doubt even the average 10 year-old's punching power is proportionally strong enough to seriously hurt another 10 year old, especially with proper protection like in the match in the video. I wouldn't even consider it dangerous at all compared to playing full-contact American football in middle school imo
Although, once you become an older teenager/adult then does striking power become proportionally great enough to actually deal serious damage to another person of the same size, especially if we're talking about a person who'd be placed in a heavyweight category.
Other girls to their bullies: I’m gonna get my daddy and he’s gonna beat you up!
Kira to bullies: *cracks knuckles* Ready to get beaten up by a 9-year-old girl?
Not really xD I'm not a fighter or anything but my mom always taught me that I had to defend myself 💪🏼💪🏼
She's strong and talented
Sara Abotalebi 7
Lightbulb 06 so saying someone is strong and talented is being a feminist..? Well then I’m a feminist, heck, we can all be feminists
Sara Abotalebi I
Sara Abotalebi She doesn't have talent any girl her age has potential she'll be outclassed at one point
she sux she couldn't even knock me out and then when i leg swept her i won by TKO
She was born to fight 🥊🥊🥊🥊🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Boxing like this is no more dangerous than any other contact sport. I've been to plenty of martial arts tournaments with all ages, safety is paramount especially for the kids. Her form is excellent, she looks like she'll be just fine.
Boxing is dangerous but it is much less dangerous when the punches are light, as is the case with lighter men, women and kids. Probably not too dangerous for women to box. Even when it is very dangerous, like with male heavyweights, in the case of adults at least, it is a matter of personal liberty, and it should be allowed, just like climbing without ropes, and so on.
What’s very great about her is that she is so determined
Damn she’s awesome
Awww the other girl was crying..that was so sweet of her to hug her afterwards. She's a beautiful young girl and great at what she does.
Me: goes in that gym or whatever it’s called
Me again:see’s her
Me srlly again:I am out of here this is a matter of life or death
She's a great boxer 😃🥊
Wow
@jieqiang luo surreeee you can
she sux compared to me and won't last 2 rounds with me in the ring she will go down
@@walmartian Why are you all so proud by saying that you are older than her and could beat her up? Beaten a child is a source of pride?
@jieqiang luo Naf
HER: Training for a short time became a champion
ME: Training for 5 years could not even lift a leg
She Is A Hard Working Talented Young Lady With A Dream, To The Haters, She Is Confident, Believes in Herself, She Is Not Arrogant, Don't Be Jealous Because you or your kids are only good at playing video games or watching T.V. !
Thanks for you support 😊🐆💪🏻🥊
Ты - молодец!) 💕
It looks like she was reminded to show respect to her opponent at the end
This girl could go extremely far in the MMA circuit aswell in a few years. Or even go multi disciplines like very few have done before her.
let’s not get carried away she’s only 9yo…. if she’s forced to do 5hr a day workouts she’ll quit by the time she’s 14
She’s very determined, I like that about her.
Nine and a professional boxer?
HOW MUCH CASH SHE MAKE DOE!
she aint no professional
shes not a proffesional
just amateur
4:01 you looked like she was a cat playing with a ball😂
As long as she's not getting hurt and she's happy... have at it.
lol...it's 'have at it' not 'have had it'
Tell that to Google Talk to Text.
theylied1776 lol
As long as shes not getting hurt you say that like you don't care about the other kids
It’s kind of hard not to get hurt when you box
ihre bewegungen, reaktionen, angriffe und schnelligkeit zeigen dass sie ein wirkliches talent für den ring ist. gratulation an die eltern, sie bestmöglichst zu unterstützen. so ähnlich war die ali in diesem alter und wurde weltmeisterin.
Less prancing about and acknowledge your opponent after the fight.
It's interesting that a 9yearold girl beat a 9yearold boy. It'll be interesting to see if she can beat 19yearold boys when she's 19, what with the differences in male and female maturation.
an experienced female will never beat an experienced male in adulthood. thats ridiculous
HarryIsTheGamingGeek But both in the video were girls. And the opponent was 2 years older than her.
HarryIsTheGamingGeek Girls and boys are pretty much about the same strength before puberty, once puberty hits the boys gets their testosterone levels to be a man and will easily beat her
Blur Icy yes, easily with the strength difference. However skilled she may be. That is not me trying to say strength is more admirable and praiseworthy than skill
She only fought 5 boys maybe they were all just trash at boxing their is defenitley someone better than her that is nine
Wouldn't wanna mess with her!
BeeGee 26 I would
SpriteRider 1 you feel big now
Salty boys😂😂😂
Of course not!!
@@walmartian doubt it very much 🤔
Impressive.... unlike other lil boxer girl....she puts her skills to the test with a live opponent vs a dead tree or a door.
She's a talented boxer🥊🥊🥊
Precious Ruiz not really she is average
@@yoelistrujillo333 your right ive been boxing for six years and ive seen nine yr olds better than me and her
Geraldine Blore I’d like to see her fight a decent boxer that blue kid was not too good
Yoelis Trujillo if shes so ungifted explain her awards
I think it was so sweet that she hugged her defeated opponent
She will be able to do this the rest of her life. The muscle memory will kick in, instantly, if she start training again when she's older.
You need muscle memory when you're on steroids like I said no ten-year-old or nine year olds have acne
Walk to the grocery store kills me 😂
Why couldn't I be like this as a kid
Cuz we were too busy watching spongebob
IKR i wish i had this fiery passion when I was a kid. My mom enrolled me into piano classes every week when i was 5 and i quit months after. Now that im 20 i dreaded it, if only i continued for 15 years to come, now i would at least be able to read musical notes n show off some talent a bit😭😭
Knocked the noodle from his hand and kicked it away. This kid has a future 👏
I'm 12 and my goal in life is to go to the Olympics.ive been doing martial arts since I was 4.i used to do kickboxing then I started to do k1 I have know been doing boxing for a year and cant wait to win the gold medal one day.when I tell people in my class I'm going to the 2024 Olympics they look at me stupid.in school im a very shy person and only my friends know me but when I'm in the gym I become myself.i like watching videos like this because there isnt many girls in boxing there is me and only one other girl that goes to my gym and she's 16.i hope one day I win a gold medal.
If u work hard u will but if you dont then u wont.Good Luck
How’s your progress?
she has the extra confident because she knows that her super hero, her dad, is always their for her. So she has no fear and nothing to hold her back. Papa will always be there to help out.
Me:I’m nine too I could beat her!
Her:comes over to fight me”
Me:fights her”
Her:beats me up in a second”
Me:has a bloody nose”
Daddy should be proud 👏
Wow very impressive, I’d like to see more of her fights. I would gladly be a fan of hers.
I put my kids in boxing a couple years ago. It's my daughter's main sport now. I read somewhere that you should put your kids in when they are young...around seven, when they dont have the power to really hurt each other. They get their feet, their hands, their defense. And then you can move them on to judo or BJJ or something less intense on their body. But get those hands early.
What a badass 💪🏼💪🏼
@random person The fact that they give her the opportunity doesn't remove her own talent and hard work. Talking about "Some parents won't even let their child make their dream come true" is an entirely other topic (that is a real problem but is irrelevant here). Why are you salty that she has this opportunity?
MY DAD IS MY COACH AND I TRAINING 8 HOURS TO DAY!
WHAT?
YOUR DAD IS A ABUSIVE MAN!
YOU ARE JUST A LITLE GUIRL!
Why are y’all hating so bad on her talking about some “I could beat her” or “Any *guy* could beat her”. If this goes any farther she’d be in women’s boxing so wether you can beat her is irrelevant if your a guy and or older than her.
OMG. She got understanding of boxing at professional level
And my 9 yro/ friends is singing: "Hello from the other fartttttttttt"
;-;
Confidence should never be taken for arrogance. I love this!!!
Mad skill Kira!
Great job!
God bless and protection!!🐑
She says she is a professional boxer and then she says I want to be a professional boxer
She’s amazing! Bravo!
Lmao when she kicks his pool noodle away 🤣😂🤣😂😂 savage
So cute hope she goes far.
I can't believe she was doing it blindfolded
Dang, you go, little mama :-)
"goddamn it kira how many times i have to tell you handshake THEN backflip!!" 3:24
cmon man sportsmanship lol
Dang nice boxing skills
This girl is so good at boxing 🥊 🥊 and strong hope that one day she’ll be a great champion 😃
what a amazing achievment and beautiful fighter keep up the good work :)
The most important thing in teaching them is SPORTSMANSHIP. Respect your opponent, win or lose. Hope she succeeds. 😊❤
Awesome!
That's so cute how she hugged that girl
Somebody wanted a son
lmaooooooooooooooo
this girl is so lucky
When I was 9 I was a great boxer greater then all of my cousins
But I was no fair my cousins got to compete in tournaments when I didn’t
Kira is a great boxer she totally deserves to be famous
When I was 9 I trained with a good coach but I didn’t get to fight for a tournament
Now I’m a lightweight boxer aiming to be a professional heavyweight boxer
I could still take her out in a fight. Atleast until she turns 16.
Ye she small as
xj0469_clank ugh no .
xj0469_clank what about the other boxers in the gym, they will always kick ur ass😂
I started box when I was 9 but I stopped doing boxing. This inspires me to come back to it.
Don’t mess with her
ROLEX ismygame she is maybe more well trained that you soo you wouldn’t stand a chance
What’s she gonna do when I start grappling? (Those boxing moves aint gonna do nothin)
I thought the backflip was such a brag
I really want to start boxing but my parents are always saying this “No it’s a boy sport not a girl sport” I get so annoyed when they say that, they also say “Why don’t you do karate if you wanna learn how to fight” and I say ITS NOT THE SAME
God bless you
great footwork-- and what a great double left jab at 3:05 !!
one suggestion: have her work on her sportsmanship BEFORE showing off with backflips after defeating an opponent - nothing ruins talent like a too big ego
I love her confidence I wish I had that much confidence
1:05 Awesome that she disarmed dude and immediately gets rid of his weapon. Smart kid. She has a bright future.
Her future is so bright
Mostly 9 year old girls will be playing with their barbie dolls n tea party with their friends LIKE MY LITTLE SISTER DID
id be scared of her at school lmao
Hardcore Absolute Fact: Most parents globally lack the humility and discipline of raising children! Parents have no idea what damage they are spreading to their children by encouraging “ ways of the flesh “ instead should be encouraging “ spiritual discernment and all things not related to the physical realm!
She is a little bit arrogant!
Shut up
A little? So arrogant!
@@nicholasmoss6825 Morten L is right
Sheesh very nice. Though she needs to polish those jabs and keep her arms tucked, very good for her age! Incredible! Pretty adorable as well keep up the good work!
I think I could be her tho and I'm only 10
I'm 10 too
Yeah and she's only 9
She is the best boxer in the world she will make it to the the highest level boxing place you can believe when you achieve
She kept poppin him right in to the corner
That’s the next Adonis creed and rocky balboa
I want to be just like her!
Twilight sparkle Show you’re already an alicorn princess of equestria
No u don't.
So you want to be a Boxer who brags about everything??
Ask your parents to find you a place, work hard, and you'll get there
OK Now I found my new Body Guard.
Robbing your kids of a childhood always turns out great...
+Lila Rose Just because she enjoys it does not mean she always wants to do it. I guarantee you that they often force her to train even if she doesnt feel like doing it. That's something an adult has to deal with, when they for example have a job. You have a responsibility to go. Boxing is a hobby for her and she's a child. Yet they'll pull her in to the gym to train even if she doesnt feel like it. It's always the case with children who're extreme athletes.
Plague Doc true. look at how it turned out for little hercules
It’s her choice and it’s not ruining her childhood she still has plenty of time for whatever else she wants to do
Plague Doc well I've been trainning since I was 4 I didnt get forced to do it I want to train its just the same as if a little girl want to do gymnastics the perants arnt making them do it they want to do it.
robbing? this is her passion... her parents donat make her do this..
Never mess with her
GIRL POWER!
Patrick Debellefeuille 💗💗💗
#GirlPower
Girl Power equals Boy Power. But Man Power shadows Women power
Lol no.
@@josebracamontes2754 Kid power!
This is helpful criticism, she throws light left jabs and throws them with the end of her glove. Everything else is fine, but she needs to work on her stance as well. She drops her hands when she backs up, she needs to keep her hands up at all times, if i fought her (me being a few years older than her), I'd notice that right away. Any talented boxer would. Anyway, good luck with your career, Kira! :)
This girls the next Rhonda Rozie she looks good right now but as soon as she gets a real challenge she will probably get knocked down.
The person in the blue was unco-ordinated
😎 COOL
She is very kind and talented even when she won the fight she decided to hug the person who she boxed with
