Errol Zimmerman (born April 20, 1986) is a Curaçaoan kickboxer, fighting out of Hemmers Gym in Breda, Netherlands. He is three time Dutch Muay Thai champion, and K-1 World Grand Prix 2008 in Amsterdam and SUPERKOMBAT Fight Club tournaments champion.
He has competed in the K-1, It's Showtime and SUPERKOMBAT promotions and is currently signed to GLORY. Zimmerman has also competed in one Openweight mixed martial arts fight at K-1 Dynamite!! 2008 against the Japanese MMA icon Ikuhisa Minowa. Zimmerman lost the fight by a toe hold, a move that is rarely seen in MMA, to the submission specialist.
Zimmerman began training at age of 12 and competing in kickboxing in 2001 at the age of 15. He competed in the under-85 kg division early in his career before moving up, eventually reaching heavyweight.
On January 19, 2005, he won the Dutch Muay Thai title at 86 kg when he knocked out Bas van den Muijsenberg in Tilburg. He then followed this up with a fairly successful showing at the K-1 Canarias 2005 eight-man tournament in Tenerife, Spain on April 2, 2005. After knocking out local fighter Mario Ostos in the quarter-finals and Cameroon's Eric Kouman in the semis, he was defeated by Henriques Zowa via unanimous decision in the final.
