Fighter Nickname: The Panther
Country of Origin: Cameroon / Hong Kong
Weight: 102KG
Instructor: Fitness, Strength and Weight Training, Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Kyokushin Karate
Fighting Style: Muay Thai, MMA, Kickboxing, Karate
Personal History:
Alain started learning Judo at the age of six, following in the footsteps of his brothers. He started showing his exceptional abilities early by winning back-to-back junior tournaments in Cameroon and later all over Africa. His first step was really influenced by his mother, who had a love for the sport and wanted her boys to learn discipline yet to focus their energy positively. Since then, Alain successively learnt Judo (Black-belt), Shotokan Karate, Koshiki Karate, Kyokushin Karate, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, French Boxing (Savate), Full Contact Kickboxing and, last but not least, Muay Thai. Alain was a former bodyguard of VIP's and high profile personalities in the Ivory Coast before immigrating to Hong Kong. He is famous for his brutal training regimen which is explosive and intense (check YouTube). With a huge fan base not only in Hong Kong but throughout the world, Alain is known as one of the fastest heavyweight fighters weighing at 102KG. His trademark move is the Panther Low Kick with his fights (always exciting to watch) usually ending with brutal knockouts. Michael McDonald, Carter Williams and Bob 'The Beast' Sapp have all had a taste of what Alain 'The Panther' Ngalani has to give.
