Tim Eschtruth Looks “to show the World What [he’s] got” at RIZIN 16

Michigan native Tim Eschtruth (4-1) has never fought outside his home state. Eschtruth, who trains at the Scorpion Fighting System, has not had to travel very far for his five pro fights. On June 2 at RIZIN 16, he will get his wish to travel far away from home when he has his first fight not only outside Michigan but the United States. He will be taking on decorated Greco-Roman wrestler Erson “Badman” Yamamoto (2-4). Erson is the nephew of legendary fighter Norifumi “KID” Yamamoto and son of Miyuu Yamamoto.
