Reinier de Ridder didn’t care about the stigma surrounding BJJ when he first started.
After a trio of highlight-reel victories over Gerald Meerschaert, Kevin Holland, and Bo Nickal, ‘RDR’ will face his toughest test yet when he meets former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker this Saturday in Abu Dhabi.
With 20 career victories to his credit, de Ridder has forced 14 of his foes to either tap, nap, or snap, establishing himself as one of the best BJJ practitioners in the sport today.
