From Norifumi “KID” Yamamoto to Kyoji Horiguchi, the KRAZY BEE gym has consistently produced fearless, brick-fisted knockout artists. With Horiguchi splitting time at American Top Team, RIZIN lightweight Yusuke Yachi (20-6 MMA, 5-0 RIZIN) has emerged as the standard bearer for the prestigious team.
A gentle soul sporting a big smile and funky hair, Tokyo’s Yachi flips a switch when its time to compete.
His wild striking has been reckless at times, but the 28-year-old Yachi has slowly but surely evolved into a more measured, craftier counter puncher.
