“I Can’t Forget Them” Roberto Soldic Reveals His Favourite Material Artists To Watch in ONE Championship

Croatian MMA star Roberto Soldic may be known for his heavy hands, but he appreciates ONE Championship’s submission grappling scene too.

One of his favorite athletes to watch is ONE Flyweight Submission Grappling World Champion Mikey Musumeci, who will be in action at ONE Fight Night 15: Tawanchai vs. Superbon on Friday, October 6. “Darth Rigatoni” will step out of his natural weight class for the first time as he takes on Japanese martial arts legend Shinya Aoki in an openweight submission grappling contest.

In a recent interview with ONE, Soldic, who competes in the welterweight MMA division of the world’s largest martial arts organization, discussed how even though he doesn’t need to watch game tape on athletes in the grappling scene, he certainly enjoys watching Musumeci compete. “Mikey Musumeci is one of my favorite athletes in ONE,” he said.

“I like to watch him. He’s very fun. The Ruotolo brothers, too. I can’t forget them. They’re awesome also.” “Robocop” was one of the hottest free agents in combat sports last year after his contract with the top European MMA promotion, KSW, ended. After checking his options around the world, he decided to sign with ONE Championship.

The UFD Gym representative cited a desire to claim World Titles in multiple sports as one of the key reasons he chose ONE as his new home. Besides MMA, the Asia-based organization regularly features Muay Thai, kickboxing, and submission grappling in its events.

ONE regularly encourages fighters to showcase their talents in multiple sports, which aligns with the Croatian star’s desire to conquer other disciplines. And when he’s not competing, Soldic enjoys the action that this approach brings. “I like to watch Musumeci, and I like seeing the grappling on the cards. Everything in combat sports is good and exciting when you take two of the top guys in the world. They always give you a crazy fight,” he said.
