BIOGRAPHY

Billy Dib's life story is one of unyielding resilience and unshakable faith. From the moment he came into this world, he confronted adversity head-on. Born with chronic asthma, his early months were marked by the struggle for every breath. Growing up in one of Sydney's most challenging suburbs as one of only two Lebanese families, he faced relentless bullying, making his journey to adulthood a gritty battle.

Despite his apprehension about attending school due to the constant torment, Billy's faith provided him with the strength to persevere. He embraced the art of fighting with not just physical prowess but also with resilience and humility. However, it was when he stepped into the boxing gym at Sutherland PCYC that his destiny was irrevocably set in motion.

Billy Dib, a two-time world champion boxer, candidly shares the extraordinary tale of his life, a narrative that spans the spectrum of human emotions. From triumphant victories to gut-wrenching despair, from moments of jubilation to heartbreak, his autobiography delves deep into the highs and lows that defined his existence.

Within the pages of his book, readers are transported into the exhilarating world of a world champion, where international rock stars rub shoulders with iconic boxers, and the birth of his son brings unparalleled joy. Yet, this emotional journey plunges even deeper, delving into the sorrow of losing his first wife to cancer and the excruciating battle he waged against cancer himself – the "hardest fight of his life."

Billy Dib's life could have taken a different turn on many occasions, but his unwavering faith and an unquenchable desire to be the best father for his son fueled his determination. Throughout his tumultuous journey, he refused to surrender.
