Top-five ONE strawweight Danial Williams is in full training mode, even running up the steep and daunting Doi Suthep Temple in Thailand.
'Mini T' isn't booked for a fight at the moment, but it's clear that he's intent on staying in peak physical shape. The 29-year-old made four appearances in 2022, securing three victories, including a pair of finishes.
Danial Williams recently shared his current running route with his fans on Instagram:
"Santai's challenging 11km incline run to the top of the mountain every Saturday morning. Passing traffic on the windy roads, feral dogs, monkeys and people taking photos of you with the Chiang Mai sunrise in the background."

Danial Williams hopes to inspire the younger generation of fighters in three sports
The Australian native has set big goals for himself that extend to the next generation. Williams is aiming to inspire younger fighters in MMA, Muay Thai, and jiu-jitsu.
He told the promotion:
"That’s my goal. Three sports, inspire the next generation. They can be four-sport world champions now. I’m training kids that are really good at jiu-jitsu, really good at Muay Thai, already starting MMA at nine and seven years old."
Danial Williams added:
"It’s just cool to see what ONE is doing as a martial arts promotion and how they can inspire the great stories of the next generation."
Since joining ONE Championship, Williams has competed in four MMA bouts and a Muay Thai contest against the great Rodtang Jitmuangnon. Prior to signing with ONE, he took part in several pro kickboxing bouts.
Aside from one setback against Jeremy Miado in his most recent outing, Williams has been stellar inside the circle under MMA rules. He owns stoppage victories over Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke and Zelang Zhaxi.
'Mini T' also famously went the distance against Rodtang in a Muay Thai bout back in April 2021. The back-and-forth war earned the pair ONE Super Series Fight of the Year honors. Williams currently sits at No. 5 in the strawweight MMA and Muay Thai rankings.
