Ruotolo brothers share photos of their Costa Rica training facility
The Ruotolo brothers recently posted photos of their expansive, newly built training facility in Costa Rica.
Twin brothers Kade and Tye Ruotolo are putting the finishing touches on their Costa Rican training getaway and recently released photos of the final product.
The 21-year-old black belts have spent over a year constructing the facility, which includes a pool, mat space, house, and close access to the beach.
Check out the photos they shared on Instagram below.
Both Ruotolo brothers compete under the ONE Championship banner, each earning $50,000 performance bonuses that undoubtedly help fund the project. Avid surfers, the twins have never been shy about their love for Costa Rica.
Kade Ruotolo is the reigning 77kg ADCC champion – a title he earned with a 100 percent submission rate. He is also the current ONE lightweight submission grappling world champion and is set to defend his belt against former foe Tommy Langaker this Sunday at ONE 165. And while he remains focused on grappling at the moment, Kade has recently hinted at a transition to MMA in the coming months.
Tye Ruotolo is an IBJJF gi world champion, as well as the current ONE middleweight submission grappling world champion. He is slated to defend that title against two-time ADCC Trials champion Izaak Michell on March 1 at ONE 166: Qatar.
