While it’s easy to think that he accomplished these feats because he’s just that good at fighting, ‘The Dutch Knight’ explains that he approaches everything with the same competitive drive.
In a recent interview with Sherdog.com, he revealed that his competitive spirit never allows him to lose at anything:
At ONE: Full Circle, Reinier de Ridder’s flawless record and ONE middleweight world title will be challenged by welterweight king Kiamrian Abbasov.
However, the 31-year-old downplays the stakes that have been put in this match as he is only focused on one thing:
Reinier de Ridder is looking to finish Kiamrian Abbasov quickly
Reinier de Ridder had no doubt in his mind that he would win against Kiamrian Abbasov even before they were scheduled to meet. He remains adamant that the outcome of their match is inevitable:
While he maintains that he has the utmost respect for Abbasov as a fighter, ‘The Dutch Knight’ believes that he is just the superior athlete. Fans may seem to think otherwise, but all the predictions and speculations will be cast aside once the two fighters are locked inside the Circle.
Reinier de Ridder is 5-0 in his ONE Championship career, having made his debut in the promotion in January 2019. After three years with Asia’s premier MMA organization, ‘The Dutch Knight’ already holds the middleweight and light heavyweight belts.
