About Shohjahon Saidmurodov.
Shohjahon Saidmurodov sat down for Kumite Lifestyle. That conversation is episode 65, “Uzbekistan To Team USA & The Marines”.
Shohjahon, who goes by Sho, was born in Uzbekistan and moved to the United States when he was three years old. He lives on Long Island, New York.
He grew up watching his mom work three jobs for the family, and even as a fourth grader he knew he needed to lock in. He became a national team karate athlete, representing his dojo, his family, his roots and his country.
Sho is also a United States Marine. He talks about why he joined, failing his swim qualification at boot camp and relearning how to swim, and staying grateful and humble about the opportunities he has.
