WAYNE OTTO? YOU EVER SPAR HIM?

[informer]

Any of you ever fight the champ Wayne Otto?

 

How was it?

 

I want to spar him.

Who is he? What kind of "street cred" does he have? Seeing as no one else has posted he's either unknown or evil.

Wayne Otto is the assistant coach for the England karate squad. He's pretty well known in the karate world over here in the UK, but I don't think that many people have heard of him outside of England.

 

He's the 9x WUKO World kumite champion, 9x European champion and winner of the 10K Karate Klash, as well as winning a shed load of other titles. He's also very proficient at kata.

 

If anyone ever gets the chance to train with him then jump at it - he's a great guy to learn from. I once went to a seminar where he was guest speaker and found that he was a very friendly and knowledgeable guy.

Yes he is the best fighter to ever come out of the UK. (some say)

 

To win 1x at the wuko/wkf is hard enough!

 

He must be the man, I hope I get to meet him some-day.

I agree with the above statement.

I can back up aefibird - he s awesome. I trained at seminar with him also, the warm up alone was like fighting on the mat.

He is a very pleasant chap - on the mat his face looks like a 'cheetah about to pounce'.
