\"Samir<\/a>Depuis son arriv\u00e9e au Canada il y a plus de 20 ans, Samir El Mais a toujours voulu porter la feuille d\u2019\u00e9rable au plus haut niveau et que l\u2019hymne national se fasse entendre et qu\u2019on hisse le drapeau en raison de ses exploits. Ce r\u00eave est devenu r\u00e9alit\u00e9 en 2014 quand il a permis au Canada de remporter sa premi\u00e8re m\u00e9daille d\u2019or en boxe aux Jeux du Commonwealth depuis 2002. Samir avait arr\u00eat\u00e9 de boxer \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 15\u00a0ans pour se concentrer sur ses \u00e9tudes, tout juste trois ans apr\u00e8s avoir commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 pratiquer le sport. Il a repris la boxe bri\u00e8vement \u00e0 25 ans pour ensuite la reprendre de fa\u00e7on plus permanente \u00e0 29 ans dans le but de ne jamais regretter un jour de ne pas y avoir tout donn\u00e9. La premi\u00e8re ann\u00e9e de son retour, il a particip\u00e9 aux Jeux du Commonwealth de 2010, mais a rat\u00e9 le podium de peu. \u00c0 seulement une victoire de se qualifier pour les Jeux olympiques de 2012 \u00e0 Londres, il \u00e9tait grandement motiv\u00e9 et, en 2013, \u00e9tait class\u00e9 au 10e<\/sup> rang mondial.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 PROPOS DE L\u2019ATHL\u00c8TE<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Famille\u00a0:<\/strong> Ses parents s\u2019appellent Adnan et Rasmia. Son p\u00e8re a toujours cru en ses r\u00eaves et l\u2019a motiv\u00e9 \u00e0 croire qu\u2019il pouvait accomplir tout ce qu\u2019il voulait. D\u00e9buts\u00a0: <\/strong>Il a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 boxer \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 12 ans. Il a repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 le Canada pour la premi\u00e8re fois \u00e0 29 ans, apr\u00e8s ne pas avoir pratiqu\u00e9 le sport de fa\u00e7on s\u00e9rieuse pendant 14 ans. Autres int\u00e9r\u00eats\u00a0:<\/strong> Il aime jouer au tennis. Il travaille comme entra\u00eeneur personnel. Il aimerait un jour devenir pompier, r\u00eave qu\u2019il caresse depuis son enfance. Il fait du b\u00e9n\u00e9volat \u00e0 la Calgary Islamic School dans le but de motiver les enfants \u00e0 croire en eux et \u00e0 atteindre leurs buts. De tout et de rien\u00a0:<\/strong> Il r\u00e9cite des pri\u00e8res pour la chance. Il reste calme avant un combat en racontant des blagues. Son surnom\u00a0: Sweet Sammy. Sa devise pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9e\u00a0: D\u00e9testez ce que vous aimez et aimez ce que vous d\u00e9testez.<\/p>\n
