After lifting the ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Championship belt from <\/span>Jonathan Haggerty<\/span><\/a> at <\/span>ONE: Dawn of Heroes<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Rodtang Jitmuangnon<\/span> will be defending his title for the first time at <\/span>ONE: Century Part II<\/span><\/a>\u00a0on October 13 at the iconic Ry\u014dgoku Kokugikan in Tokyo, Japan against <\/span>Walter Goncalves<\/span><\/a> of Brazil.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Rodtang can hardly contain his excitement.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI am really excited to defend my World Title for the first time, especially on such an important card,\u201d Rodtang said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really excited to return to Japan as well. I have a lot of fans there, and it will be great to perform for them again. Japan really embraces martial arts, so it is always a lot of fun to fight there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Brazillian challenger has a standing record of 65-5-0, in contrast to the Thai\u2019s impressive 257-41-10. Despite the difference in records, the two warriors have similar fighting styles — both are aggressive in the ring because of their early training in Muay Thai.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cI like to fight people with a similar style to me \u2013 people willing to trade. It is a lot of fun,\u201d Rodtang said. \u201cI think my experience will be too much for him, and that my overall conditioning will be better than his. \u201cI\u2019m ready to trade with him, but I am not going to underestimate him either. He\u2019s an accomplished fighter. I won\u2019t change my style, that is what people love about me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Jitmuangnon Gym representative\u2019s hard work paid off when he won the belt, and he plans to do whatever it takes to keep it around his waist.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is easier to win a World Title than it is to defend it. I\u2019ll need to train even harder,\u201d Rodtang concluded. \u201cI have to win \u2013 I have to keep this World Title. The Muay Thai World Title must stay with a Thai. I intend to win and keep this belt with me for a long time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
