About me
ACHRAF OUCHENE
I am Originally from Nador Morocco currently living in Aargau Switzerland, born the 1st of November 1997.
I started my Martial Arts Journey with Karate at a young age of 6 years old.
I started my successful professional career with joining the National Team of Morocco at the end of 2012, this step helped me to evolve both technically and physically to be one of the best Karatekas in the History of the Moroccan Karate.
My life story
I Spent my childhood in Nador city , started Practicing Karate same year that I started my 1st grade of school, to my parents sport was as necessary as education, no matter how tired I could be during the day skipping the karate classe was never an option , so I basically grow up with karate as part of my life.
​
Started competition at a young age of 7 years old went from winning the regional qualifications to dominating the national championship for several years consecutively and becoming 10 times Morocco’s National Champion only at young age of 20 years old.
​
I joined the National team in Rabat at the end of 2012 with a one goal in mind is to be the greatest of all time in the karate history, My first participation in the Junior’s World Championship was in Guadalajara (Spain) in 2013, I got my first ever bronze medal and that only gave me more motivation to go for the gold in the next edition.
In 2015 I became WORLD CHAMPION of the U21 +84kg category and directly after winning the final bout i received a congratulation from the King of Morocco and in August 2016 I got decorated with the Royal medal of honor “WISSAM AL ALOUI” from his Majesty Mohamed the 6th King of the Moroccan Kingdom, this blissful day charged me with big motivation and also gave more responsibility to give my best in the Elite-Senior’s World Championship of November 2016.
This was my first participation in the Senior World championship, with great performance I made my way to the finals among the greatest athletes in the heavyweight category while only being 18 years old making me the first ever athlete to qualify to the final match of the World championship of the +84kg category at a young age of 18.
​
This historical silver medal gave me the opportunity to sign a professional contract with KOKO Sports Management to fight in the world’s First ever Professional Full Contact Karate under the name of “KARATE COMBAT” World's first and best Professional Karate Organization.
​
Besides my successful Karate career I also graduated from the Royal Institute of Prince Moulay Rachid in Rabat as bachelor degree student in sport’s science.
​
I Finished my Semi contact karate WKF (World Karate Federation) career with an expected comeback in 2019 to the African Games of Rabat Morocco, and taking the Gold of +84 kg after a competition stoppage that lasted 2 years.
I am the current number 1 ranked fighter of heavyweights in Karate Combat organization with an undefeated record of 4-0 and 2knockouts and taking the 6th place in the Pound for pound ranking. My Goal is to be the First and only Moroccan Karateka to win a World title in both semi and full contact karate.
