Jordan Estupinan and Johan Estupinan continue climb in ONE flyweight Muay Thai division
Johan Estupinan's first five fights in ONE Championship have proven he's a legitimate threat to the flyweight Muay Thai world title. The 22-year-old could face a conflict in the future, as his twin brother is fighting in the same division.
Jordan Estupinan has more to prove than his twin brother in the flyweight Muay Thai division. With that said, the Columbian striker showcased his potential with his impressive unanimous decision win against Freddie Haggerty.
The ONE flyweight Muay Thai world title is currently vacant due to Rodtang missing weight for his November 2024 defense against Jacob Smith,
Rodtang is focused on his upcoming non-title kickboxing match against Takeru Segawa, scheduled for the ONE 172 main event on March 23.
It's unclear if ONE will make a vacant Muay Thai title fight in the meantime or wait for Rodtang to return to the "Art of Eight Limbs."
