Chatri Sityodtong says if you want elite-level striking: 'See Rodtang'

For ONE Championship chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong, there’s no doubt his promotion has the world’s most elite strikers. In fact, he believes that one man in particular is simply must-see television.

Speaking to the media in a post-event press conference at the recently concluded ONE Fight Night 10: Johnson vs. Moraes III on Prime Video, Sityodtong said to forget about other strikers in other promotions, and that if fans want to see real striking, they should go see one man.

Sityodtong said:

“I don’t want to name names but there are some other folks in other organizations that have been called the greatest striker in the world, and it’s just not true. You want to see elite level, you see Rodtang.”

Obviously, Rodtang Jitmuangnon is one of the most exciting strikers in the world, and in recent years he has really come into prominence. The reigning ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion, Rodtang, is an amalgamation of sublime striking technique and absolute violence.

But perhaps his most notable asset is his ability to take a punch. Rodtang will often leave his hands down at his sides, inviting his foes to take free shots at his chin. ‘The Iron Man’ simply walks through that fire and dishes out his own punishment.

It truly is a spectacle to watch live.

Rodtang recently made a successful defense of his flyweight Muay Thai belt at ONE Fight Night 10: Johnson vs. Moraes III on Prime Video.

Fans in the United States and Canada can check out Rodtang’s incredible second-round knockout victory over former WBC International Muay Thai champion Edgar Tabares and the rest of the historic event via replay, only on Amazon Prime Video.
