Definetly related just by comparing their techniques. foundations have changed a bit ove the years though.
I believe www.plumpub.com has a Fujian Tiger book as part of the Fujian Martial Arts Styles Book series.
A great performance:

The clip we posted:

is of Pingnan Tiger Boxing.Further info about Fujian Tiger Boxing can be found below:

Yongfu Huzunquan is renowned as one, there are many practices, not necessarily just three.....some of the most well known are Zheng Family, Gan Family and those descendant from Zhou Zihe (as he did some modifications)....but they are the Huzunquan style. In Longyan (South of Fujian province, whereas Yongtai is North of Fujian province), there is a so called tiger set but it is not as comprehensive as Huzuquan.
Huzunquan influenced some of the neighbouring provinces: Zhejiang styles - Tiangang and Heihu etc, some of the Jiangxi styles - Yingmenquan and Pingxiang Nanquan and Guangdong styles.
Please note that the Nanyang Hakka Tiger is also a derivative of Huzunquan:

Hello Shaolin Master,
You are the clip poster for Huzunquan, aren't you? Thanks for posting great clips.
Is "Nanyang" as in Southeast Asia or as a specific school name in Singapore with that name? Thanks.
Hi Wu-ji.
1. Y and glad you enjoy the clips.
2. Y (as in South East Asia)
Cheers,

She did great on that form. IMO, her power generation is very similar to Quanzhou style Wuzuquan (Ngo Cho Kun).
Thanks. Huzuquan might be one of the styles I'm thinking of. The other two Fujian tiger systems I recall were Bai Hu Quan and Hei Hu Quan. Do you know anything about these?Quote:

Generic Tiger styles are everywhere, throughout Guangdong, Emei, Hebei, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Henan and Shandong (North), many styles have evolved. Then there are styles that have adopted names at later stages but are of different basis altogether.
I found where I read it. It was from one of your posts Shaolin Master. http://forum.kungfumagazine.com/foru...66&postcount=2
Yes, they have their foundations/influences in Huzunquan.
One is practiced as part of a style from Yongding and the other in Sanming areas of Fujian, but these are not mainstream (mother styles), whereas Huzun is.

How do they differ from Huzuquan and each other?
One looks similar to this:
