One of my favorite sportsmen is boxer Bahar Jalolev. The first I have known about him in 2016, at the time he became an Olympic champion that occurred in Brazil, Rio de Janeiro. After that situation he became immediately the famous around the world, especially if I say that he is really highly respected by the Olympic boxing federation, it would not be wrong. Especially one thing I really respect towards him is his dedication and his ideology, that he always say, never give up in any case. Because I usually follow him on social media and he post some special motivation speech and he is the preparation time for the special Olympic games or other competitions. And that’s why he also remember he is the first year of his beginning period. Because if I say a bit information about his initial career path, he was a loser boxer. But despite this he tried to harder as much as possible every day and worked on himself. And finally he became one of the best boxer around the world. He is not only well known for in our country but also he is someone who has conducted special sports school. That’s why I highly respect him because he is not only just sportsman but also good person.

I usually follow him on social media, where he posts special motivational speeches during his preparation for the Olympic Games or other competitions. I also remember the early years of his career. If I share a bit of information about his initial career path, he was a struggling boxer. But despite this, he tried harder every day and worked on himself. Finally, he became one of the best boxers in the world. He is not only well-known in our country but also someone who has established a special sports school. That's why I highly respect him; he is not just a sportsman but also a good person.
