Rabat – The Moroccan pro boxer, Mohammed Rabii, has encountered an issue in acquiring a visa to enter the European Union to fight his sixth professional battle.
The Republic of Czech and Belgium have denied visas for Rabii and his team, despite the guarantees and reservations that he provided on his visa application in addition to his professional fight invitation.
The fight is scheduled for July 21st in Germany’s capital Berlin.
In the absence support from the Royal Moroccan Boxing Federation, the professional athlete continues to sacrifice and persevere in order to improve his level to be ready to achieve his dream in the Tokyo 2020 summer Olympics.
Rabii will try to acquire the Schengen visa through another European country, but he will have to postpone his fight until August.
A similar issue kept the Moroccan steeplechase runner, Soufiane El Bakkali, from competing in the US when his visa request was denied.
