Former ONE lightweight MMA world champion Shinya Aoki is undoubtedly one of the best submission artists in history, and his career resume solidly backs that claim.
ONE Championship even reminded everyone of how great Aoki's grappling skills were by publishing his win over Ev Ting in October 2018 on the ONE: Kingdom of Heroes card, which went down inside the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand,
The world's largest martial arts organization wrote in the caption:
"No escape, no mercy 🔒 Does Cole Abate have what it takes to avoid Shinya Aoki's traps at ONE Fight Night 26 on @primevideo? @shinya050983"

In the video, 'Tobikan Judan' made quick work of 'ET', as he only needed less than a minute to put him to sleep and get the submission victory.
The Japanese icon's squeeze on the arm triangle technique was so tight that Ting's eyes almost popped out. Fans were mind-blown but at the same time showed concern for the Malaysian-Kiwi contender, as users @x._ave._x, @jaydenletterman09, @qcxvxvq, @jonb.716mma, and @nblhnnaifa commented:
"Homie's eyes rolled to the back of his head :/"
"Eyes bouta pop out"
"Haven't watched Aoki fight for years, but just from the sheer ruthlessness and hatred in the way the choke was applied I knew it was him, even from the back of his head."
"Bros eyes were poppin out 👀"
"Bro almost met the grim reaper"
Shinya Aoki welcomes young BJJ phenom Cole Abate to ONE Championship on Dec. 6 at ONE Fight Night 26
The Evolve MMA representative is now in his 12th year of competing on the global stage, but he is still going strong, and his previous win over John Lineker at ONE 165 in January proves this.
Now, Aoki is set to welcome the 20-year-old BJJ phenom Cole Abate to ONE Championship on Dec. 6 at ONE Fight Night 26, as they will collide in a lightweight submission grappling contest in Bangkok.
North American viewers with an active Prime Video subscription can watch all the action at ONE Fight Night 26 on Dec. 6, which goes down inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
