Thai superstar Rodtang Jitmuangnon has 274 wins in his illustrious career, where he has showcased, among other things, his incredible power to rock every opponent he has come across.
ONE Championship, where 'The Iron Man' has been competing for the last seven years, moved to highlight this facet of his game in an ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) video it uploaded on YouTube.
The video runs for nearly three hours, with no commentary, and features over a dozen of his impressive fights and victories in the 'Home of Martial Arts'.
Among those spotlighted is his dominant ONE Championship debut in September 2018 against Surinamese fighter Sergio Wielzen, who he defeated by unanimous decision to trumpet the force he was to become.

The Jitmuangnon Gym standout decision's victory over Jonathan Haggerty of the United Kingdom in August 2019 to become the new ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion is also featured.
Focused on as well is Rodtang's successful defense of the flyweight gold against challenger Edgar Tabares of Mexico in May 2023 in the United States, which saw him overpower his opponent with powerful strikes, including a well-placed elbow in the second round to win by knockout.

Nong-O aware of what Rodtang is capable of heading into ONE 173
Nong-O Hama need not watch ONE Championship's video post on Rodtang as he is fully aware of the capabilities of 'The Iron Man' heading into their scheduled match next week.
The veteran Thai fighter will battle his compatriot for the vacant flyweight Muay Thai world title at ONE 173: Superbon vs. Noiri on Nov. 16 at the Ariake Arena in Tokyo, Japan.
Nong-O said it is going to be challenging to stop a fighter like Rodtang, whose Muay Thai skills are as solid as they get.
He told ONE Championship in an interview:
"It would be really challenging to have a knockout in this fight. So, I would love to win by score. But if there is good timing, I would totally go for the knockout because I've been preparing so many forms of strikes. Knocking out Rodtang would be hard, but if there's a chance, I'll try to do it."
At ONE 173, Nong-O is out to become world champion again but in flyweight after his long reign as bantamweight king from 2019 to 2023.
Rodtang, meanwhile, is seeking to reclaim the flyweight gold after he was stripped of it last year for missing weight in his title defense against British fighter Jacob Smith.
Tickets for ONE 173: Superbon vs. Noiri are available via ePlus in Japan. The event is also live on pay-per-view exclusively at Live.ONEFC.com.
