I'm 17 years old, i don't practice Karate for almost a year beause of a training injury that needed surgery. I almost think of quiting Karate just today, i saw some of your videos and got motivated! I now want to get better so i can train again and hopefully one day get to a world championship like you! Man thanks a lot, because of you i got my motivation to continue practiccing Karate :) (sry for bad english if eny mistakes made)
Jesus David Burgos Garcia may God bless you even I'm also practicing shotokan Karate do. N let's see each other at world championship in future. Love from India keep it up don't lose your self 😎
Wou!! I´m impressed with Rafael. The best in the history of Karate; the only one that has been 4 times World Champion and the only Champion that has won 2 individual categories in the same World Championship. He also led the Azerbaijan team to a Silver World Medal in 2010... and he is still friendly, simple and easy going. He is not just a great Champion but a great person!!
Rafael Aghayev has really good boxing/kickboxing skills, many world class kumite semi contact karateka have trained in boxing and kickboxing to refine their fighting style
Awesome! At this rate, Busa and Smaal are a peace of cake! I can't wait to see what condition Rafa will be in the World Championships! Keep it up Rafael!
I stumbled across this fine Karate-ka by chance. I'm happy I did. I admire him greatly. I'm curious, where is he from and what style does he practice? Thanks for posting this. It would be an honor to meet my brother in martial arts one day. Osu!
Hello Jutsko! tnx for the great videos! it's possible to know the tecnichal name of those kind of elastic band used by Aghayev at 5:15 :) !? thank you!
hahaha.... Did you see machida fight in KARATE KUMITE? of course he is a world class shotokan. He won Gold world Karate title in Japan. the reason why he was not able to compete in the latest world karate chapionship is because he tried on MMA. starting 2005
