Muay Thai Muay Thai is commonly referred to as the "science of eight limbs," and is Thailand's national sport. Muay Thai is derived from the hand-to-hand aspect of the ancient Siamese art known as, "Krabi Krabong;" and was once performed for the entertainment of the King of Siam. Muay Thai is known for its distinct rituals, incredible conditioning, devastating round (Thai) kicks and the merciless use of knees and elbows.

Sorry compadre, I've never heard of him. The only reference I could find on him on the web was on this site, http://www.akbba.com/ and he's only mentioned in passing there. Wish I could've been more help.

He's mentioned on the about page, here: http://www.akbba.com/about.html
and on the hdb page, here:
www.akbba.com/hdb.html

If you're using Internet Explorer, type Ctrl+f, then type in andy white and it should find it in the page for you. If you are using Netscape or some other browser, well, Ctrl+f should still work. Be warned, there's not much info on him in there, I think his name is just mentioned in passing. That's all I could pull off of google when I did a search for andy white plus kickboxing. Hope it helps, but it probably doesn't much...

Re: Does anyone know a kickboxer named Andy White?

I don't know if it is the same Andy White but I took Tae Kwon Do from a guy named Andy White in Lubbock, TX who was a former kickboxing champion. He was there for a while teaching and training other kickboxers. Then, I think -- it's been years since I've heard the name, he moved to Midland, Tx and that is the last I've heard of him. He had an excellent kicking ability. I'd like to know what happened to him since he was my first karate instructor when I took lessons from him as a kid with my dad back in the 1980's. I remember he used to get this x-ray paper from somewhere and one person would have to hold up the sheet of x-ray paper and we kicked those things till our legs felt like they were going to fall off. I've never seen karate instructors use x-ray paper since. It made a really loud sound when you hit it just right.
