Andy Ristie (born March 17, 1982) is a Surinamese-Dutch kickboxer who competes in the lightweight division. After an unremarkable beginning to his career, he came to prominence with a lengthy and entertaining winning streak in the It's Showtime promotion in 2011 and 2012. This earned him an invite to fight amongst the 70 kg/154 lb division's elite, competing in the K-1 World MAX 2012 Tournament and debuting in Glory shortly after.
Standing at 1.82 m (5 ft 11+1⁄2 in), Ristie is tall for his weight class and is known to look for knockouts from the first bell. He utilizes devastating knee strikes to the body and possesses considerable punching power, especially in his left hook.[1] As of 2 November 2015, he is ranked the No. 2 lightweight in the world by GLORY.[2]
