De Ridder is a ONE Championship light heavyweight and middleweight champion, who holds an undefeated MMA record of 15-0… With 10 out of those 15 wins being earned via submission!
The announcement of the match came just over a week after De Ridder submitted Kiamrian Abbasov with a Head And Arm Choke to retain his middleweight title. After the fight, he took the microphone and called out Galvao:
Andre Galvao, let’s find out who the best grappler is around these parts. Let’s go man, I’ll choke you out!

De Ridder predicted that he will submit Galvao. The reaction of Galvao was all class:
Grappling fans are in for a treat! It’s going to be interesting watching Galvao, who’s one of the best grapplers in history, take on a man who’s a grappling and MMA expert himself… What do you think – how will the match go down?
