Ritu Phogat’s career reflects the values that Parimatch Sports celebrates, including the courage to step into the unknown, the discipline to continue improving, and the resilience to move forward despite challenges. Her journey demonstrates how dedication and a willingness to evolve can help athletes achieve more while pursuing bigger goals.
After establishing herself in wrestling, Ritu began a new chapter in mixed martial arts. During the episode, she explains that the opportunity to learn disciplines such as jiu-jitsu and kickboxing, while constantly challenging herself, made the transition a natural progression in her career.
“I switched from wrestling to MMA because I wanted to become the first MMA world champion. I found it exciting because it gave me the opportunity to learn new skills and challenge myself,” said Ritu Phogat.
The episode also highlights Ritu’s life beyond competition as she shares personal experiences and speaks about the people who continue to inspire her.
“Champions have a responsibility beyond just winning. There are many things that happen in life — I am a mother, a wife, a sister and a daughter as well. When you have a goal, it gives you motivation, and that helps you continue moving forward,” explained Ritu Phogat.
Reflecting on the challenges behind every achievement, Ritu also speaks about the setbacks that have shaped her career and strengthened her determination.
“There have been times when you work very hard but still lose, and that is one of the most difficult moments for any athlete. But those moments teach you the most. My father and my elder sisters motivate me to work harder and come back stronger,” she added.
