Biography |
|
| Donnie Williams co-founder of the Black Karate Federation (BKF) in 1969 Los Angeles (alongside Steve Muhammad).
Born in 1947 in Savannah, Georgia, USA, he began his martial arts training in Texas with a brief introduction to the Shotakan Karate system under Jerry Atkins. He then studied Taekwondo while stationed for four years in Korea after enlisting with the U.S. Navy.
Upon his return he moved to California and continued learning TKD, now under Byong Yu.
Four years later, he had developed into a superb kicker who gained renown on the tournament scene for his aggressive fighting style, as well as unique ring antics. It was this combination of fun and fury that earned Williams the nickname “Clown Prince of Karate.”
It was during this time of tournament competition that Donnie Williams met Steve Muhammad. During the ensuing 14 years, Williams learned about Muhammad’s deceptive Kenpo techniques. |
