Cem Senol
With more than 20 years of competition experience in full-contact karate, kickboxing & mixed martial arts, Cem Senol can be called an experienced heavyweight. With many titles and championships to his name, he is still looking for new challenges. When he heard years ago about an "ultimate" test where few people have a chance to complete it, he was immediately interested. Completing the 100-man Kumite would be a fantastic achievement! And in addition to the physical and mental challenge, it is also a direct means to show everyone what this sport entails: "Real budo; a way of life full of discipline, respect & commitment "   "So that those who need it can be helped"
