Georgi INSANE Karakhanyan
About Georgi
Georgi
was born on May 29, 1985 in Moscow, Russia in a family of Armenian
entrepreneurs. He was introduced to martial arts by his father at the
age of six (Georgi's father has a black belt third dan in Karate Do
Shotokan and he's also a SAMBO expert). Georgi was just eight years old
when he first fought in a full contact martial arts competition.
Georgi's
dreams completely changed after the 1994 World Cup. Inspired by world
soccer legends Ronaldo, Romario, Roberto Baggio and Georghe Hagi, Georgi
made a strong decision to become a professional soccer player. He played
in world class clubs TORPEDO Moscow and SPARTAK Moscow. After Georgi's
family moved to Tarragona, Spain he continued practicing soccer with the
professional club GYMNASTIC DE TARRAGONA (reserve team of FC BARCELONA).
In the U.S. Georgi played with NOMADS San Diego, ODP (Olympic
Development Program) U.S. Under-18 and professional indoor soccer club
SAN DIEGO SOCKERS.
Georgi made his first professional MMA debut just after six months of training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Although Georgi never dreamt about cage fighting, wining his very first fight against a veteran MMA fighter in the KOTC, gave him enormous confidence and belief that he's on the right path.
Currently, when Georgi isnt fighting, he shares his experiences and trains different groups and classes of kids, adult and anyone who is willing to learn self defense techniques.
Georgi never give up his biggest dream: SOCCER!
Georgi wins the "HyeFighter of the Month" award for September 2007:
