#2. Rodtang Jitmuangnon - ONE Championship flyweight Muay Thai champion
Watching ONE Championship flyweight Muay Thai champion Rodtang 'The Iron Man' Jitmuangnon go to work is like witnessing a tank flatten cars on the road. The frightening buzzsaw from Thailand operates at a very high-pace and has a highly aggressive brawling style.
The Jitmuangnon standout loves to push forward and strike with power almost every time. Owner of one of the toughest chins in ONE Championship Super Series, Rodtang is the Muay Thai equivalent of boxing legend Jake 'The Raging Bull' LaMotta.
The Thai star has no problem getting hit multiple times just so he can get in range to land his fight-ending combinations.

Rodtang, considered one of the best pound-for-pound Muay Thai fighters today, has gained worldwide recognition just by his crowd-pleasing style. He got so big beyond the sport that he will crossover to MMA and fight Demetrious 'Mighty Mouse' Johnson in ONE Championship's first-ever mixed rules match.
#1. Nong-O Gaiyanghadao - ONE Championship bantamweight Muay Thai champion
When you talk about legends of the sport still active today, one of the athletes that comes to mind is Nong-O Gaiyanghadao. The reigning ONE Championship bantamweight Muay Thai king is right up there with greats like Saenchai, Lerdsila and Buakaw.
The Sakon Nakhon native is a seven-division Muay Thai champion. In his decorated career, Nong-O has won two Thailand national titles, three Lumpinee Stadium titles, one Rajadamnern Stadium title and a ONE Championship title.
Nong-O's fight IQ is head-and-shoulders above the competition as he seems to see his opponents' move even before they think it. Together with his ring intelligence is the pound-for-pound great's surgical precision and devastating power.
Comfortable in both counterstriking and stalking his opponents, Nong-O's Muay Thai style is all-encompassing. Like the great 'Sugar' Ray Robinson, the ONE Championship king has no real weakness.
