Fans can’t believe Rodtang Jitmuangnon ate a direct head kick from Jonathan Haggerty in 2019 and just shook it off like it was nothing.

Rodtang became a superstar when videos of the Muay Thai phenom letting his opponents hit him reached social media. A prime example of the ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion showing off his iron chin came in 2019 when Haggerty landed a clean head kick, and ‘The Iron Man’ shrugged it off.

ONE Championship recently reposted the clip with the caption saying:

“The Iron Man” eats kicks for breakfast 😱 Will Rodtang Jitmuangnon withstand Joseph Lasiri’s strikes at ONE on Prime Video 4? @rodtang_jimungnon #ONEonPrimeVideo4 | Fri Nov 18 at 8PM ET”
