“It's so hard to steer him” - Kade Ruotolo says submission-minded twin brother Tye will get the tap at ONE Fight Night 23

Reigning and undisputed ONE lightweight submission grappling world champion Kade Ruotolo of the United States is back in Bangkok this weekend to corner his twin brother, Tye Ruotolo, the ONE welterweight submission grappling king.

Tye Ruotolo is set to face dangerous South African grappler Jozef Chen at ONE Fight Night 23: Ok vs. Rasulov on Prime Video.

The event broadcasts live from the historic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

Speaking to Sportskeeda MMA in a recent interview, Kade Ruotolo says he is confident his brother will once again score another highlight-reel submission victory.

The 21-year-old BJJ black belt said:

"I believe Tye will get the sub, dude. Tye’s, you know, he never really changes, man. It's so hard to steer him away from his goal - take down, pass, submit, you know. He does it to everyone for the most part and I don't see him not doing it this weekend."

Tye's fight will be a non-world title affair and will be contested at a catchweight of 186-pounds.

Meanwhile, Kade Ruotolo himself is getting ready to return to action.

Following his successful professional mixed martial arts debut in early June, Kade will return to the submission grappling arena to face his most accomplished foe to date.
