The flyweight champ isn't shy about showing the softer side of himself after joining Hamilton wrecking machine Denis Puric at ONE 167 earlier this month.

As always, Rodtang demonstrated that he's a tough striker to deal with due to his aggressive power-forward fighting style and iron chin. Now, the Thai superstar is seeking a spot on the Atlanta card at ONE 169, which is anticipated to be another barnburner of a roster.


"That would blow up Japan" - CEO Chatri Sityodtong sees Rodtang reprising his rivalry with Takeru Segawa in Japan this year

CEO and Chairman Chatri Sityodtong hopes to re-book Rodtang's kickboxing rivalry with Japanese star Takeru Segawa as soon as possible.

The two strikers were previously scheduled to touch gloves this January in Tokyo, but due to Rodtang's unexpected injury, any hope of their bout dissolved. Now, with Rodtang and Segawa injury-free, their rivalry resumes at full throttle.

Speaking to Sportskeeda MMA, CEO Chatri Sityodtong revealed:

"Of course I do want him [Rodtang] in America, but we are saving Rodtang quite frankly for Japan. He was supposed to fight in Japan last time and there was a lot of buzz around him and Takeru, so we thought that would blow up Japan."
