With nearly two decades spent competing at the highest level of mixed martial arts, Dan Henderson has impacted multiple generations of fighters coming up in his wake. Of those who have been inspired by Hendo's work inside the cage, Tim Boetsch is certainly a card-carrying member of the club.
The former wrestling standout from Maine watched the former Olympian turned knockout artist use his grappling skills and power game to become a success in the MMA world. Knowing he had similar tools to work with, The Barbarian set out to find success of his own, and the results he's produced have validated his decision to step into the cage in the first place.
