Muay Thai champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon is known for his impressive physique and excellent durability. He is one of the biggest Muay Thai fighters and is popular for his ability to withstand power punches. Rodtang has worked really hard to reach his position as a ONE Championship flyweight champion. However, he recently revealed his training methods for fights.
He appeared in an interview with former fighter Antoine Pinto where he spoke about using football as his training method. He said, “Well, sometimes I get so tired. Life has been hard since childhood. One day, it was not burnout, but I got a bit bored of all that, and so I trained a bit less. Not a bit, a lot less.” Rodtang went on to say that he was tired of all the hard work.
He believes that he works very hard for every fight and puts in all the work necessary. Rodtang said that he plays sports, majorly football as it adds to his strength. However, he also said that he doesn’t party and maintains a nutritious diet. He recently made headlines for facing his first-ever loss after fighting Demetrious Johnson in a mixed-rules match.
Rodtang is one of the most popular Muay Thai fighters and his fighting style and prowess have made him a fan favorite. He also signed a new deal with ONE Championship which will add to his star power. Fans will look forward to seeing Rodtang return to the cage soon.
Rodtang is gearing up to fight Superlek Kiatmoo9
Rodtang and Superlek Kiatmuu9 are two of the best Muay Thai fighters in the world. They are also friends, but that will be put aside on September 22, 2023, when they face off in a highly anticipated ONE Championship flyweight Muay Thai world title fight.
Rodtang has been nothing short of entertaining in his professional career. He is also a master of the clinch and the elbow strike. However, Superlek himself is a ONE kickboxing flyweight champion and has technical and effective kicks. He is one of the toughest challenges for Rodtang who is looking to cement his legacy as the greatest Muay Thai fighter.
It is impossible to predict who will win this fight. Both fighters are evenly matched, and they both have the potential to finish the fight early. It will be a battle of wills, and it will come down to who can execute their game plan better.
