Emine Arslan
Turkish mixed martial artist (born 1989)
Emine Arslan (born 4 January 1989) is a Turkish kickboxer competing in the full contact 52 kg division. She is a world, Islamic Solidarity Games and European Games kickboxing champion.
Sport career
Arslan discovered kickboxing at the age of 23 as her younger sister started to attend a new gym, which opened in a local basement. The gym owner, Hasan Fahri Şen, was a former Turkish champion in martial arts and a coach. He offered to start training her for kickboxing. In the beginning, she was not interested because she had to work until late leaving little spare time and she was very tired after work. She also smoked two packs of cigarettes a day, and coughed up dust due to the conditions in her workplace. The coach and Deniz Işık Doğan persuaded her to begin training in the gym. She soon realized that kickboxing was very different from what she had thought. She exercised three days a week, and made great progress as a sportswoman in the first four months.

Why this record matters
“Emine Arslan” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Emine, Arslan and Turkish provides the most credible route into that argument.
Chronology provides the most reliable spine for this subject; interpretation should follow only after identities and dates are secure. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 28, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q120441977. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1989.
A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
