Past

Growing up in Osaka to a middle class family. Shiyomi had it nice and easy growing up. Never short of anything she needed. Growing up she ended up developing a brat complex. Something that wasn't dislodged out of her until her parents force her to take some martial arts classes when she turned 14. Trying multiple styles, Shiyomi turned her nose up at them all, her brat complex getting in her way. That all changed when she visited the local boxing gym, the only place that she had not tried yet. It was there that Shiyomi was thrown in the deep end, straight away being gloved up and turned against a 16 year old girl. Shiyomi lost horrifically, but it also stung her pride so much that she no longer cared what people thought about her. She kept coming back every week and tried fighting this girl... always losing.

From these defeats however, Shiyomi Began to learn things. While she would never openly admit it, she had given up on defeating the girl and focused on training instead. Without fail every week she turned up to training, building her strength and stamina until she turned 16, and was old enough to compete. Starting out from the bottom, Shiyomi entered the state boxing circuit. Her debut was one to forget however, being K.Oed in the third round. After suffering a few more losses, things turned around for her, scoring a decisive win on her 4th match.

From there it was onwards and upwards, winning the state belt and numerous other events too. However she was nowhere near ready for the radical upgrade in skills required to box nationally. Shiyomi found herself back where she was at the beginning. Being hopelessly outclassed, It took a full 3 years of boxing training to get her to a level where she could compete Nationally, now aged 19 Years old. For the next 3 years, Shiyomi enjoyed mixed success. Trying to secure a belt or event win proved difficult but she was able to hold her own. With success seemingly unlikely, Shiyomi decided to chance a change to the AFW momentum circuit to see if she could secure a belt there.
