ONE Fight Night 10 on Prime Video might just be the most talent-heavy card that ONE Championship has ever produced.
While the names atop the card fully deserve their spot, there are still fighters down the ladder who are fully capable of producing those magical moments that will be played in future highlight reels.
Not only will they go out in front of a sold-out 1stBank Center, but these fighters’ exploits will also be broadcast live and for free on North American television via Prime Video.
Colorado will play host to ONE Championship’s first on-site event in the United States, and these three fighters will be ready to steal the show on May 5.
#3 Tye Ruotolo
Tye Ruotolo may be young, but his youth masks a fighting pedigree that established veterans would dream of having.
The 20-year-old is a former Who’s Number One champion, a bronze medalist in the Absolutes division of the 2022 ADCC World Championships, and is one of the pillars of ONE Championship’s growing submission grappling scene.
Ruotolo is 2-0 in the Circle and his wins over Garry Tonon and Marat Gafurov also earned him a collective $100,000 in bonus money.
Confident that he can keep his perfect record, Ruotolo will take on ONE middleweight world champion Reinier de Ridder at ONE Fight Night 10.
Though the 6-foot-4 de Ridder is naturally bigger than him, Ruotolo is ready to bring the fight to the submission specialist.
Ruotolo is an ultra-athletic fighter who isn’t shy in pushing the rules to their limits with his creativity and wrestling. Though he’s five inches shorter than de Ridder, the grappling protege is fully capable of taking care of business against bigger opponents.
If Ruotolo’s past performances are to be judged, expect another entertaining grappling exhibition from the American fighter.
#2 Roberto Soldic
Having your debut in a no-contest is an absolute bummer, which is why Roberto Soldic is as hyped as ever heading into ONE Fight Night 10.
The Croatian sensation arrived in ONE Championship as the most sought-after free agent in 2022, but his first fight for the promotion ended in disappointment when Murad Ramazanov’s knee strike accidentally hit him in the groin.
Soldic, unfortunately, was unable to continue, resulting in their ONE on Prime Video 5 meeting ending in a no-contest.
Nevertheless, Soldic is getting a do-over against former ONE welterweight world champion Zebaztian Kadestam.
Kadestam and Soldic are two of the heaviest hitters in the welterweight division and it’s almost a guarantee that these two will be throwing hands from the opening bell.
Soldic, however, is incredibly hungry for a proper introduction and he’ll certainly head into Colorado with a desire to put on an absolute banger.
#1 Sage Northcutt
A bit of a similar predicament to Soldic, Sage Northcutt’s proper introduction to ONE Championship is yet to fully happen.
‘Super’ Sage had his first fight in the promotion in 2019, but that ended quickly when he lost to Cosmo Alexandre in the opening round of their welterweight contest.
Northcutt admitted that the welterweight division was too big for him and that lightweight is his natural weight class. Only 27 years old, the American fighter still has a lot of mileage left in him and he plans to get back on track when he faces Pakistani fighter Ahmed Mujtaba.
‘Wolverine’ is a certified brawler with back-to-back finishes in his previous two fights.
Northcutt, though, is one of the most explosive and athletic fighters on the planet and has eight finishes to his name.
Eager to make a statement in ONE Championship, Northcutt will undoubtedly go into ONE Fight Night 10 with pent-up energy that’s just waiting to be unleashed.
