Reigning ONE welterweight submission grappling world champion Tye Ruotolo has collected a perfect 6-0 record in ONE Championship since making his promotional debut in May 2022.

In fact, he has become the inaugural titleholder of the division during this incredible stretch. Ruotolo also finished four of the six opponents that he came across inside the Circle.

The world's largest martial arts organization recently compiled all Tye's submission wins in a recent Instagram account, as they wrote the four-slide video post with:

"Pure domination 💪💥 Can Tye Ruotolo stay perfect in ONE when he faces teen prodigy Jozef Chen in a catchweight submission grappling bout at ONE Fight Night 23 on @primevideo? @ruotolobrothersjiujitsu"

In the said post, the one-half of the famous Ruotolo twins left a trail of destruction by submitting the likes of Garry Tonon (in May 2022 at ONE 157), Marat Gafurov (in December 2022 at ONE on Prime Video 5), Dagi Arslanaliev (in August 2023 at ONE Fight Night 13), and Izaak Michell (in April 2024 at ONE Fight Night 21).

These highlight-reel triumphs by the Atos representative have earned massive praise from fans, especially from platform users @lucasmr990, @_a_saint, @alexandre.luu, and @kcquesi7, who commented:

"Gonnar be lit"
"Is that last one an Anaconda or a D'Arce?"
"usually u tap twice to signal u give up, here its a one slap so his confusion is logical"
"Tye the Titan"
