First name Norifumi
Norifumi Yamamoto is a Japanese martial artist and boxer who competed in the UFC bantamweight category. He quickly became famous in Shooto due to his aggressive, comprehensive and controversial personality. He switched to K-1 Hero, where he became the champion of the 2005 Grand Prix K-1 Hero Middleweight in December 2005 after defeating Genki Sudo through a controversial TKO over punches. Although by most measures he is a born underweight, many of Yamamoto's most important battles are in light weight as it is the Hero's lightest rank. Most recently, he competed in the Ultimate Fighting Championship in bantamweight, although he didn't perform well there, going unbeaten in his first four matches.
