Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Fighter Mike Rethmeyer

Mike Rethmeyer is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Master. He learned to fight because he had to- he had been picked on mercilessly and no one was willing to step in.

Mike Rethmeyer is a world class martial artist. He was exposed to violence at a young age and had to learn how to control his temper and rage.
