Servet Tazegül (born September 26, 1988 in Nuremberg, West Germany) is a world and European champion Turkish taekwondo practitioner competing in the featherweight division.
He competed in the men's 68 kg class at the 2008 Summer Olympics held in Beijing, China and won the bronze medal. Throughout a majority of his fights he seems to be fighting in the Southpaw position, which is very powerful and is also used around the world by various martial artists. This position applies to a taekwondo competitor, who is stronger with his right leg, but places the right leg in front gaining more accuracy while also confusing the opponent.[citation needed]
