ONE Fight Night 13 event is fast approaching.
But, even though it takes place on August 4 – in just 3 days – some changes were made to the card…
One of which being the addition of a submission grappling match between Tye Ruotolo and lightweight MMA fighter Dagi Arslanaliev!

Arslanaliev is a second-ranked lightweight MMA contender at ONE Championship, who has become one of the most exciting MMA fighters of his organization.
The Turkish national owns a staggering 100% finishing rate, with a 9-2 professional MMA record.
However, this is Arslanaliev’s first submission grappling match under the ONE Championship promotion. So, it will be very interesting how he’ll be able to handle Tye Ruotolo’s skill and fast-paced style.
Ruotolo, an American Jiu-Jitsu prodigy, has so far earned three victories over elite grapplers in ONE Championship.
The 20-year-old has beaten Garry Tonon, former ONE Championship featherweight MMA champion Marat Gafurov, as well as the reigning ONE Championship middleweight MMA champion Reinier de Ridder.
Needless to say, Tye is going for the submission on Friday night.
And he is going to bring on his entertaining, explosive style that the audience loves so much – making this into an interesting match!
