Fan comments

Takeru Segawa, one of the hottest free agents in kickboxing, made major headlines this April after signing with the Singapore-based martial arts organization.

His multiple-fight deal with ONE has been a major milestone for the company as it looks to further establish its foothold in Japan.

And what better fight to sell tickets for in Japan than having two of the best pound-for-pound strikers in the world, Takeru Segawa and ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon hash out their differences on the world stage.

Ever since the pair engaged in a war of words last year, fans are anticipating a pending fight announcement to arrive in 2024. Segawa, meanwhile, is just waiting to get his feet into the water before touching gloves with Rodtang.
