100% FEMALE MUAYTHAI EVENT
THE CONCEPT
The Queen Gloves is a 100% female Muaythai sporting event organized by Tarek Monteil, Shanelle Nicosia, and the AFMT.
​
Once upon a time, on April 19th, 2019, there was a bold idea that would change Muaythai in France, break barriers of inequality, and celebrate feminine power in the world of Muaythai.
Just a few months after this initial spark, we gathered our strength, determination, and passion to bring to life our greatest project: The Queen Gloves.
November 24th, 2019 was a memorable day. One of the first 100% female Muaythai galas was born, illuminating the sports scene with its grace and fervor.
Fearless women and inspiring warriors clashed in the ring, pushing boundaries.
With no less than 22 fights and nearly 1000 people in the audience, we proved from the very first edition that strength, grace, and determination have no gender.
From the outset, this gala proved to be much more than a sporting event: a celebration of emancipation, diversity, and progress towards equality. A vibrant testament to how dreams can materialize when believed in, worked hard for, and united for a common cause.
Since that initial spark, we have continued to shine, support women in Muaythai, and inspire others.
A few months later, we took a further step by offering a prestigious gala, "Queen Gloves 2," in the famous Wagram hall, just steps away from the Champs-Élysées.
Today, we continue our development, gala after gala, providing daily visibility for female boxers.
This continued until the 5th edition in March 2023, where we officially disrupted French Muaythai.
​
In the legendary venue of the Cirque d'Hiver, which had never before hosted Muaythai, 2000 people gathered. A national record that made the walls of Paris tremble for one evening and officially left the mark of Queen Gloves on the world of Muaythai.
​
We are proud of our history, our dedication, and our commitment to female Muaythai.
Thanks to your support, we have become the number one organization in France and aim to make ourselves and our boxers known worldwide.
