Teshi Cheema is a Thai boxing champion and owns a business which manages 16 properties at just 22 years old
A Leeds man who was a terror to his teachers growing up has turned his life around after being suspended, becoming a boxing champion and running a successful business at just 22, raking in a staggering £45,000 in just one month.
“I was just more bothered about going out on the weekend with my mates, going to house parties and getting drunk.” “I was sick of it, to be honest, I hated it. I just didn’t agree with it and I started swearing at him. We got quite close to each other and it nearly was an altercation and teachers did come out. Then that was just the last straw and I got suspended.
It wasn’t until he picked up Thai boxing that his attitude in life changed. He’d been watching fights on Youtube and decided to try it out for himself at Kiatphontip Thai Boxing Gym in Holbeck. In the background during his training as a teenager, Teshi secured an apprenticeship in maintenance engineering at Unilever’s aerosol factory in Leeds, earning £20,000 a year. By the age of 21, he had a full-time job as an engineer with Morrisons earning £45,000. However, working as an employee made him feel he was ‘making someone else rich’ and so he decided to try his hand at becoming a property entrepreneur.
