WATCH: Thai superstar Rodtang Jitmuangnon shows Joseph Lasiri the levels to their game in brutal beatdown in Singapore

Rodtang Jitmuangnon produced a 12-fight winning streak under Muay Thai rules between his promotional debut in September 2018 and May 2023. In November 2022, he crafted an offensive masterclass against Joseph Lasiri in defense of the ONE flyweight Muay Thai world championship.

'The Iron Man' gave then-reigning ONE strawweight Muay Thai world champion Lasiri everything he could handle throughout their five-round slugfest. However, 'The Hurricane' would repeatedly disengage after getting caught in Rodtang's flurries.

This prompted the Thai superstar to taunt him but did little to entice Lasiri to fight toe-to-toe. The Jitmuangnon Gym star successfully retained the crown via unanimous decision.

Relive the highlights of Rodtang's defense below, which ONE shared on Instagram:

After a sensational knockout of Edgar Tabares in his fifth defense of the crown in May of the following year, he attempted to go for his sixth against Jacob Smith last November.

However, the gold was stripped from him for missing the 135-pound weight limit. Regardless, the 27-year-old prevented Smith from ascending to the throne with a five-round thrashing.

Rodtang longs to reclaim the currently vacant flyweight Muay Thai gold. Still, he must first deal with Japanese superstar Takeru Segawa at ONE 172: Takeru vs. Rodtang on Sunday, March 23, in their flyweight kickboxing megafight.
