Kade Ruotolo has been absolutely dominating the submission grappling scene.
Already the youngest person ever to win the ADCC title, a WNO champion, and an undefeated ONE Championship athlete… He’s almost done it all!
With that said, he has also been preparing for an MMA debut.
But when will his first match take place?
Well, as he revealed in a recent ONE Championship interview, Kade would like it to be as soon as possible:
I want it to be this year, no matter what. Hopefully, in the near future.
Like I said many times, if it was up to me, it would be next month.
But who would Kade like to fight against?
It appears that he doesn’t really have a preference. He is open to all possibilities:
As I said before, that’s always what motivates me.
It’s whoever wants to fight me, especially, when there’s a bit of tension as someone comes at me with: “I want Kade Ruotolo.”
Then I’m like, let’s get it. That’s the one that I want.
