Tye Ruotolo Claims ONE Lightweight Title with Submission Victory

Tye Ruotolo made history at Lumpinee Stadium, earning the ONE Championship lightweight title after finishing Christian Lee in just over three minutes. Ruotolo, who already held the organization's grappling title, dominated the exchange by dropping Lee with a striking combination before transitioning to ground and pound and securing a rear-naked choke.

With this victory, Ruotolo remains undefeated in his three professional MMA bouts, all of which have ended via first-round rear-naked choke. Following his championship performance, the fighter was awarded a $100,000 bonus.
