Personal
Zaoui was born in the village of Zaouiet Yagoubi, near Nedroma, in the Tlemcen Province. When he was just five months old, he emigrated with his family to Évin-Malmaison, France.
Career
Zaoui won the bronze medal in the Middleweight division (71–75 kg) at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. He shared the podium with Puerto Rico's Arístides González.
Although he offered his Olympic medal to the National Olympic Museum, he never received the Olympic bonus he should have gotten as all medalists do.
