Rodtang highlights Superlek and Jonathan Haggerty's advantages

Rodtang knows all too well what Superlek and Jonathan Haggerty will bring to the table at ONE 168: Denver due to his experience in fighting both of them.

Speaking to Sportskeeda MMA, 'The Iron Man' broke down 'The General' and Superlek's advantages over each other, saying:

"Superlek cannot underestimate him, and I think he'll need to have his guard up all the time. Same for Haggerty. Superlek's Muay Thai skills are polished and extensive. Haggerty has more advantage in terms of power."
