Choi Sun-ho (also Choi Seon-ho, Korean: 최선호; born June 24, 1977) is a South Korean judoka, who played for the middleweight category.[1] He won a total of three medals (gold, silver, and bronze) for his division at the Asian Judo Championships (2003 and 2008 in Jeju City, and 2007 in Kuwait City, Kuwait).[2][3][4]
Choi represented South Korea at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he competed for the men's middleweight class (90 kg). Unfortunately, he lost the first preliminary round match, by a koka and a superiority decision, to Egypt's Hesham Mesbah.[5]
