ONE Championship video: Tye Ruotolo submits Garry Tonon with D’Arce choke in 97 seconds

Tye Ruotolo and his twin brother Kade continue to shake up the grappling world.

On Friday, it was Tye who pulled off one of the most impressive feats of the combat sports calendar, forcing a tap from decorated jiu-jitsu champion Garry Tonon. Tye caught Tonon with a D’Arce choke just 1:37 seconds into what was scheduled to be a 12-minute pro grappling contest at ONE Championship 157 on Friday in Singapore.

Watch the incredible submission above.

Kade Ruotolo also scored a win over a grappling legend in a 12-minute grappling contest at the same event, winning a unanimous decision against two-time ONE lightweight champion Shinya Aoki. Ruotolo’s twin, who is longer haired than his opponent, used some clever maneuvers to impress the crowd and beat his older rival.

The Ruotolos are on fire in the world of jiujitsu, knocking out veteran names like Tonon and Aoki. Kade also made headlines back with a perfect execution of the rare buggy choke at the 2020 Combat Jiujitsu World Championships.
