Rodtang Jitmuangnon, known for his aggressive fighting style, is set to face Takeru Segawa in a rematch for the ONE Interim Flyweight Kickboxing World Title at ONE SAMURAI 1 on April 29 in Tokyo, Japan. This bout is significant not only because it is a rematch but also marks Segawa's retirement, raising the stakes for both fighters. Rodtang, who previously defeated Segawa in just 80 seconds at ONE 172, understands the pressure of competing at such a high level and the expectations that come with being a representative of Thailand. He openly discusses the challenges of weight management in the flyweight division, especially under ONE Championship's stringent hydration testing protocols. Despite setbacks, including being stripped of the ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Title in November 2024, Rodtang remains focused on his goals and the emotional connections he seeks with fans, stating, 'I want to be loved by everyone.' His mindset reflects a deep understanding of the sport's demands and the importance of fan appreciation.
