Reinier de Ridder and Bo Nickal have a common enemy.
In May, ‘RDR’ handed Nickal his first career loss in mixed martial arts, brutally KO’ing the former Nittany Lion in the second round of their UFC Des Moines co-main event.
Now, the Dutchman is eager to train with Nickal in hopes of giving the world-class wrestler a shot at being the man to beat the newly minted middleweight world titleholder, Khamzat Chimaev.
