Rodtang Jitmuangnon, the ONE Championship megastar, showcased his unique fighting style in an electrifying match against Fahdi Khaled at ONE: Hero’s Ascent in January 2019. In his first fight in Manila, Rodtang unleashed his mastery of ‘The Art of Eight Limbs,’ overwhelming Khaled in a thrilling display of skill and power.
Despite a valiant effort from the Tunisian fighter, Rodtang emerged victorious with a unanimous decision after an all-out war of attrition that kept fans on the edge of their seats. Seven years into his tenure with ONE, the Jitmuangnon Gym star has maintained his relentless approach while evolving into a smarter fighter who balances aggression with strategy.
As he prepares to face the formidable Japanese kickboxer Takeru Segawa at ONE 172: Takeru vs. Rodtang on March 23 at the Saitama Super Arena, Rodtang will need to harness this strategy to secure a win.
Takeru, who joined ONE in April 2023, has promised an explosive fight, stating, “I’ll fight as if this is my last match, willing to break myself if necessary. I believe this approach will help me defeat Rodtang, and that’s the fight I want to have.” The clash of these two fighters is highly anticipated by fans, eager to see who will emerge victorious.
