renketsu Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Hi, Does anyone know of the White Tiger Karate Club/Association in the Wigan area (North West England)? I have had a mate ask about it and I have never heard of them and am looking for some background info/website etc (I have looked on Google but cant find anything). I will advise him to check the usual stuff but am looking to forwarn him incase it is a McDojo Cheers, Andy.

Zorba Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 There was a white tiger club at a tournament i was in at the end of may (australia). They got warned for misconduct by one of the refs (the whole club, not just one fighter). they looked pretty mcdojoish. i think with a name like "white tiger", it sounds a bit dodgy. It takes a big man to admit when he's wrong, and I am NOT a big man.Tae Kwon Do (ITF) - 1st Dan Black BeltShotokan Karate - 6th Kyu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.A.L Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Do you remember in one of the early versions of UFC there was a white tiger figher who reached to final and lost decently to Graice. He was pretty good with a open hand tiger look guard . Graice couldn’t take him down instead he went into guard and choked him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
searcher Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 The fighter you are refering to is Keith Hackney and his style is White Tiger Kenpo Karate. I believe it is an offshoot of Ed Parker's system, but I am not 100% sure. As for White Tiger in the U. K., sorry no help here. "let those who shed blood with me be forever known as my brother."
