Kade Ruotolo, a seasoned competitor, has been competing at ONE Championship events for nearly two years – amassing a 5-0 record.
He currently holds the title of lightweight submission grappling champion, which he secured in his second match by defeating Uali Kurzhev.
Since winning the title, Ruotolo has successfully defended it twice, notably against Matheus Gabriel and Tommy Langaker in 2022.
Despite taking a pause from competition in 2023, he returned to defend his title against Langaker once more.
On the flip side, however, this marks Francisco Lo’s debut in the ONE Championship – therefore presenting a significant challenge for him in his first appearance with the promotion, even though it’s worth remembering that he is a 2023 IBJJF No-Gi Pans Champion.
