His age and high will in the challenge distinguished him despite the difficulties and challenges he went through during the tournaments, which were why they called him “The Miracle.”
The Miracle “Fadi Al-Andari” – a Lebanese nationality – at the age of 45-years won by knockout of his 23-year-old Thai competitor, “Bisit Pangongjit,” known as “Babo,” from Thailand, in the World Muay Federation Amateur to Professional Championship.

For the sixth year in a row, Al-Andari practiced martial arts such as Kickboxing, Muay Thai , Muay Chaiya , Muay Boran , and all styles of Muay before the natural bodybuilding competitions and won in a short time between these tournaments. He has been called a ” Miracle in Sports ,” and this achievement is considered the first of its kind. He has achieved these remarkable results for the fifth year in a row.
The “Miracle” was planning to participate again in competitive matches in 2020, but the Covid-19 epidemic caused the matches to be canceled.
In 2021, his Thai competitor, Bisit, withdrew.
As for the year 2022, “The Miracle” did not agree to participate in the match because he did not agree on the winner’s award value, especially after the level he reached and struggled greatly to get. Where the winner is presented with a financial prize, (which he didn’t agree the amount of which has been offered).
Unfortunately, he did not participate in the 2023 matches despite the enthusiasm of his followers and fans and their waiting to encourage him. Still, he was not ready for the matches for several reasons. The “Miracle” obtained all the love in his heart for all his fans, and he still has the enthusiasm to take on challenges and matches with the aim of success.
The “Miracle” wants to participate in a specific number of international matches in “Mixed Martial Arts ( MMA )” or “Kowat Al Rami.”
Today, Al Andari focuses on his academy to train children and adults in martial arts and self – defense , as he has his own programs and curriculum for teaching self – defence and street fighting.
He strongly encourages his mission to make everyone aware of the importance of martial arts, even if they do not participate in the matches, for their benefit in self-defense. What is also striking is his keenness to teach everyone not to attack or take the initiative in fighting, if necessary, in daily life, but rather to use these martial arts only for defense and not attack except, in one case, inside the wrestling ring.
Al-Andari teaches sports ethics and contributes significantly, especially in raising and building the character of young trainees, which the trainees’ parents have noticed in their children’s progress on the personal and psychological levels and in fighting bullying from society in a rational way before physical.
In conclusion, we give the legend and miracle Fadi Souhail Al Andari all our salutes and appreciation for his respect for the ethics of sports and for our pride in his achievements over the years to deserve the title of “the miracle, the legend, the great coach, and the champion of generations.”
Fadi Souhail Al Andari .
