This man has over 300 fights, and every single one of them he fights like his life depends on it. He hasn’t gotten “bored.” He hasn’t lost his passion. His fire. This man still puts everything into every one of his fights. This phrase gets thrown around very nonchalant, but this man is the definition of a true warrior and born fighter.
Can't wait to see him in his "golden" years. Late fourtys, early 50's being the OFC gatekeeper for the younger guys like he has been.
Him and Buakaw
Real muai thai students train for years, some spend up to 10 years training sleeping inside school just to get rdy to enter the ring for a chance to have a better life for themselves and families, to them this is more than a sport is an honor for their country and a lifetime a achievement for the fighter.
Actually, most fight after a couple of weeks
is this a reference to Van Damm's Kickboxer movie
Some of them literally do this just to feed their family
Yep. Best fighters in the world. You can't tell them to lose a fight for money, like in UFC.
@@marko.4089 what the fuck XD who do you think threw their fight for money in the ufc?
Guys like him were trained for battle since they were a child. Hearing he had so many wins under his belts actually makes sense. Talent, hard work, resilience, and dedication to the craft and ambition. Respect.
Buakaw is the best of all muay thai fighters
yeah even his face is full of muscles
@@MisdaadKanaal2K22 nope many more
And God

7:58 That jump over the trip, one leg being held tho, wow
almost like a sixth sense absolutely crazy!
That was some Tekken 💩
THat's some battle junkie experience there...
Cgi man!
Man🌶🌶📝🎱
Rodtang has some serious pent up aggression! He used his anger in a superb way! What a Tank
Rodtang mean tank in Thai 😉
@@nelsonsolans9760 rodtank!
Yeah, I'd love to NOT fight him. I value my life more than getting some cheap/expensive thrills.
He doesn't look angry to me. He looks focused.
Rod (Loat) is vehicle, tang is just the way Thais pronounce tank 🔥🔥🔥
Rodtang seems comfortable blocking with his face.
His face looks adapted for that.
Yes he is, maybe that's why he wins, because he is afterall the toughest between the two of them
@X - Abhishek - X 😂👍🔥🤦♀️
@X - Abhishek - X Anyways beeing beaten by the fighter of this lvl its already a honor..Rodtang is a real killed ng machine...👍👍🔥💪
Rodtang is originally from Malaysia then moved to Thailand when he was 11
What a crazy fight! Rodtang is scary as fuck! He doesn't care if he walks into a strike, he decides his combinations and just goes for it, and doesn't let anything stop him from doing what he decided. What a warrior!
"Rodtang does what Rodtang does!" wow... now i know everything...
@Kane O'opu you don't watch boxing so you don't know boxing bruh
Relax bro
@Kane O'opu how does one gouge eyes with boxing gloves? I am talking about Floyd yes... he is a boxer, he wears boxing gloves, not mma ones, there is no way to gouge eyes with boxing gloves, not even if you try on purpose.
@@arnbloodbound3650 Well, you can punch slightly past the eye to try and graze the eyeball but hardly a high % technique and still not technically a gouge.
@Tomás Mac Donnchaidh I'm competing in Siam now, or trying to given everything was shut for 2 months.
You get the gloves taped up at the wrist. If you throw a short hook - close to an elbow - you can try to graze the eyeball with the tape. It's theoretically possible with the glove itself also.
Yes, I know it's pretty much impossible to achieve with any reliability... that was my point. Now go forth and 14.
252 wins at 22 years old?! Fffffffuuuuuuu!😫
When we were in our baby car, they trained muay thai.
Mr. Everything Master oh my god
And I am almost 40 and can't win a day to save my life.......😢
Syn IsterV cheer up yo. You can win up for sure. Just believe in yourself.
Thais fight and train like crazy. They almost have a fight per week/month.
7:56 the way he dodged that sweep like damn
Hats off to Haggerty he has good technical Muay and is tough as nails
Of course, he's a professional fighter. Still not as good as this Thai though.
He’s technique has finesse behind it. And this guy didnt train earlier in life.
@Vincent T. vincent is a farang name
Both were great competitors. Where's the good sportsmanship? Let's just enjoy the fight.
I do Muay Thai as well and my style of fighting kinda similar to his but less aggressive
Most thai fighters are just beast because theyre basicaly "adopted" into their gym, western fighter have too much distractions with lives and whatnot, for most western fighter this is simply a sports or career at best, but for thai fighters this isnt just a sport its their lives, they truly eat sleep and live their training.
Modern day Spartan! :D
This is accurate, been there for lessons and really it’s a way out of poverty a way to make a life ....it’s a passion not goal 🥺🥺🥺and this guy fights from his heart
Well life it's not only training, there's also these things called "family" and "friends" that are a major part of our lives
fax
What about ramon dekkers
09:30 oh boy that was amazing
like Lerdsila..
He took that kick to the face, brushed it off, and rocked the liver.
In the gaming world we call that winning a trade dealt more damage than he took great decision making :D
that's not kick to the face
His name “Rodtang” mean “Tank” in thai
How thais say road tank
Rekan Payne Rodtang or Roadtang (Road or Rod = vehicle / Tang = barrel , tank )
Thank you!
รถถัง
Tank you
There's so much adrenalin in Rodtang I don't think he can sleep for a week.
The guy doesn’t need sleep he just powers through the exhaustion by devouring lost souls 😂
That hype man needs to calm down.
king sef the hype man is great lol
yes !!!
I need that hype man in my corner 24/7
fcking cringe, One FC trying to be like UFC but fact remains it isnt
That hype man is epic. I got no clue how you draw the line to the ufc tho, are they the only ones who are allowed to make cool promotion videos for their fighters? ONE is growing rapidly.
Only 23 years old, holy cow. Dude's pretty much going to become a legend.
He already is
5:24 That punch would have killed me.
Game: Press up arrow to taunt.
Me: *presses up arrow*
Rod Tang: *punches own face*
That punch would've killed a mule
Ltting a hit to the face to take out the liver
Rodtang's weakness is counter fighters. We saw this in his fight with petchdam years ago and his recent fight in Rajadamnern Stadium. He's my favorite current fighter in Muay Thai but I want to see him evolve further and then beat Petchdam in ONE. He just better not swing wide open like he has done before because it may cost him points.
@leslie alcantara I think his 2nd fight with seksan that happened last year in december was a good eye opener for how you march forward on rodtang. Even though Rodtang still one, Seksan was still able to make smart moves. Superlek might be able to give that type of energy as well. We'll see
Exactly man. The rules in one are what favors him because of the small gloves. Those wide open punches will get him back
@@P0rQpine i wonder how the scoring goes in ONE. Traditionally punches aren't scored as high in Muay Thai as kicks are but I think they score the same in ONE which gives an advantage to Muay Mat style fighters like Rodtang
intelligence beats power
Well you got your wish, Rodtang dismantled Petchdam earlier this year. I've never been a Petchdam fan, he doesn't like to get hit and relies too much on that big left leg and Rodtang dismantled him. Huge Rodtang fan here in middle America.
Imagine getting into a street fight with someone professionally trained in Muay Thai 😭😭😭😭
That would be terrifying bru 😂just started yesterday way diff from boxing but omg those kicks elbows and knees are gonna be worlds of pain
R.I.P
Mauy Thai fighters are deadly but they would’t stand a chance against a top ufc fighter once they get taken to the ground or start grappling its over there only good on there feet. Ufc fighters are deadly all around on the ground and on there feet there a lot more scarier because of that.
I practice boxing and my coworker muay Thai, a day we were having some light warm up and he kicked me with the shin I have difficulties working that day XD
If a ufc fighter takes me to the ground he’s going to get murdered by my drunk fat friend stomping on his head
Whoever trained this man had to realise he released the beast in a fighter... one of a kind Monster.. just hope he keeps his training inside the ring.
he trained with legends also
Theres a difference between fighting and violence. This is a very ignorant statement
Hes so quick and controlled with his movement and power im extremely impressed
His posture and the way he throws strikes reminds me of prime Wanderlei Silva.
Rodtang is my favorite fighter of any discipline ever. Absolutely love the intensity and respect for both himself and his opponents he shows.
Rodtang .... WoW!!! Devastating power and unparalleled agression. The heart of a lion. Don't let's ignore Haggerty here though. What a fighter he is and what a fight he put up against Rodtang. He can feel no shame in losing this fight.
You sue are life after gamer :v
@@lolas6563 I don't understand your comment.
@@pointparasai_music sue means sure and repeat what I just say
@@lolas6563 "you sure are life after gamer". .... Nope. Still not understanding.
Nvm
Smallest bully alive
😂
Lol
he’s not smoll just dense
you fight him in the ring i'll pay you 50 dollars even if you lose
@@spongebob6956 that wont be enough for the hospital bills tho 🤷♀️
He is already on his way to be Buakaw's successor. Respect to him.
Their styles are really different, Buakaws successor if anyone would be superbon
@Peach Peach He might be a mini buakaw
@@oobibab9572 a compact buakaw
I'd like to see those saying that men don't cry go a round against this dude (who cried because he won)
11:57 You thought it was Rodtang but it was me, Dio
Underrated comment!
Man of culture i see. 😏
I don't get it, where's the reference?
@@d4rk50ul5 the thumb in the eye - Jonathan and Dio's boxing match in Phantom Blood.
Rodtang is now a JoJo reference
Rodtang going for those liver shots like he was digging for gold.
“THE POWER THE POWER THE POWER THE POWER!...RODTANG RODTANG RODTANG RODTANG!” The comments about hype man did not lie 😂
I've never seen liver punches so precise and so deliberate.
0:21
Not surprised, rod tang literally means tank
From the looks of it, he certainly hits like a panzer hellcat.
15:27 look at Haggerty face after Rodtang took a full blow and still charging like nothing happened.
Dude is hurting himself to hype himself up. What a beast. 3:05
7:57 WOW😵
Who here would play a ONE FC muay thai game?
🙋♂️
@@ONEChampionship please make one
I want Bruce Lee and Ip Man in the game.
អួតណាស់អាអួត
@Al Knowing I'm assuming your not a monk and watch tv. So explain the difference between whatever garbage you watch and actually using your brain to play a game.
Was impressed with Rodtang right away all the way through, but my respect for Haggerty grew with every minute, well done standing as well as he did against Rodtang.
Love to see him fight
7:59 great anticipation
I’m from Southeast Asia and just know we got ur back !!
9:30 got my mind woooooshed
This dude doesn't let you breathe, he be like i punch one i punch twice i punch ten more then ten more
Haggerty put up a solid fight but showed way too much fear after taking couple of hard trades. it could be seen in his eyes literally every time rodtang moved in more aggressively. great fight anyways.
13:33 i love how he demands to just casualy stick the mouthpiece in xD
that jumping evasion from that low sweep... wow
Small Mike Tyson :)
That's exactly what I think too. Yes, he's a little Mike Tyson.
Nah that manny
But he is the small version of mike Tyson in muay thai
No
@Will Y I think he's talking about Rodtang's punching power, most of his strikes in this fight were punches.
Yeah a true mini Mike Tyson with muay thai
I’m like ten sec into the fight and I can just feel the pain from those kicks 🤧
This guy has a style all of his own.
Rodtang is so aggressive yet so humble at the same time
Haggerty is tough and good.
Of course, he's a professional fighter. Still not as good as this Thai, though.
Many Thai fighters are coming to fight in this weight. And they are the top fighter in Thailand Some were even better than Rodtang . At that time, Jonatan probably dropped out of rank.
Even though he lost this match, I've seldom seem somebody non-thai that good at muay thai. 👍I mean look at that downward elbow at 11:16, gorgeous, rare and devastating. Well executed, he was hoping to catch Rodtang and man, if he would have that might have turned the fight around.
@@lmoral222 watch closely... he's better than Rodtang that fight but was outpowered with tang's boxing. Almost all the round Rodtang just went boxing lmao.
@@tyrannical3579 "he's better than Rodtang that fight but was outpowered" this literally makes zero sense at all.
Rodtang is concrete wall.. gives you high pressure..
"...he rolls 'em up, and he smokes 'em!!"
Excellent sportsmanship from both fighters. 👏👏👏
Great Fight‼️
Awesome Endurance and reflexes by both fighters.
What makes him different from other Muay Thai fighters, as I understand it, is that his boxing is very strong. That's how he inflicts the most damage.
What the fuck do you mean by 'boxing'??? All muay thai fighters have good striking, its all muay thai is
muay means boxing in thai..
@@kuldeep_fbx Thai fighters, for obvious reasons, employ hand striking - in terms of power and combinations - much less effectively compared to boxers. That's what I meant. It doesn't mean they have weak striking. It simply means they use what their sports call for.
@@b-sideplank Thai box uses less purely hand combinations because of the 8 limbs going on but what they throw goes with more intent then in western boxing. The only thing boxers have going for them is hand speed on longer combos. The power is depending on who you are comparing. That's why a lot of kickboxers (any style of i.e. dutch, thai) compete in boxing circuits.
@@albundy7991 👍🏼
I saw him live, i'm athletic 1m90 95kg but I got goosebumps from that little man
Should add Rodtang's "Come on!!" clip into the intro.. That epic berserk shout pretty much sums everything up...
The guy at the beginning sounds like he is proud of himself for knowing how to pronounce Rodtang’s name. He says his full name every chance he gets.
He is damn strong
RODTANG THE TIGER 🐯
VERY AGRESSIVE AND COMPLÈTE STYLE.
Wonderful, amazing
Thanks for sharing
From France 🇫🇷
Honestly, Id be proud already being able to fight a guy like that in a ring these guys are all tough as you can get even if they lose.
Holy cow this guy has over 200 pro fights under his belt and so young. What a monster!
Can we appreciate a moment that rodtang checked on the white guy to see he's okay.Good sportsmanship
the fight i would love to see is rodtang and lerdsila in his prime what a great fight that would of been :)
ถ้าจะเอาช่วง ทั้ง สองคน พีค สุดๆ ความคิดส่วนตัว ผมว่า รถถัง ต่อยไม่โดน เลิศศิลา(ในแบบ MUAY THAI น่ะครับ)
Probably the first time in a long time that Ive seen a fighter NOT flinch ...this chappie LOVES the sting of combat...what makes him dangerous...
Both good fighter . Good fight . Deserve my respect ..
These kind of guys die young but wish him a happy and a long life.
Idk about you I'm here for the action not the long run if I wanna do something in life I'm gonna do it even if it costs me lifespan years
14:05 Hype man: "THE POWER! THE POWER! THE POWER! THE POWER! THE POWER!"
You mean... Like a Hypeman!?
The body shots are just 🔥 🔥 🔥
Great fight!!!
Rodtank is a Buakaw's brother.
Jitmuangnon ❤️👌🏼🙏🏼
Unbelievable fight
the slowmo shows so much power very niuce
I like this kid. His style is reminiscent of Ramon Dekkers, RIP.
@jamalking99 Wow. You dont know the first thing about Muay Thai/Kickboxing. Your statement is the equivalent of telling baseball fans that no one likes Nolan Ryan. He was recognized by the Thailand Royal Family for his contribution to Muay Thai and appointed the ambassador for foreigners coming to fight in Thailand. I'd say that there are people that like him, I dont know.
HeavyMental1000 I think he means *no one's* like Dekkers.
@@justanotherrandomfilipino9018 If so, then my mistake. Improper grammar can seriously change the entire context of a statement.
I wanna see him in the ufc imagine if he got a ground game
He never forgets his technique in using his anger in a fight
He walks through storm . He's a machine.
I must say im impressed with the way Jonathan faught Rodtang. Even without that much of support from fans but he faught well.🔥🙌
He’s mixing boxing fundamentals into Muay Thai. Naturally he’s gonna out class his competition who have crap boxing defense.
That guys defense seems good
Yea I wonder why no one else can see it.
ALL great Muay Thai fighters have mixed boxing with their Muay Thai. It’s what separates the good from the great along with other things
@@BenjiClips614 some don't utilize it as much
@@BenjiClips614 people do realize that Muay Thai itself has nearly all the elements of boxing right?
OMG!!!!!! I was fantasising a boxing/kickboxing match with MMA gloves for years; it has to be the most aesthetically pleasing and most realistic form of standard fighting. WHY, just why has nobody organised it? Randomly clicking on this vid and wow.! just WOw!
i love that you're in for the aesthetics lol. especially watching graceful asian fighters. many of the caucasian fighters i find stiff. rodtang is a beauty in those little gloves
The little guy ragged dolled him every chance he got! Rodtang is a BEAST!
Haggerty I think did well to stay on his feet !!!!
5:27 oohhf that liver shot man. If I were Haggerty, I would've throw up.
The Rodtang roar is iconic
I'm a fan cheer of tanks. I like it when the tank jumps and dodging it when the Lang intercepts its leg Thailand 🇨🇷🇨🇷
gee could you play the intro music a bit louder i could still hear what they were saying...??
sure i can. can you repeat that without crying?
Feels sorry for haggerty lol
5:35 That was a Rocky move. 'C'mon, hit me! Ain't so bad" Then boom-boom, counter to the solar plexus.
That bunny hop @ 8:00 ... wow... just wow...
I instantly seen rodtang weakness both in 2 fights I've watch. I noticed he swells very easy. Opponents barely land but yet his face is sensitive
I would have liked to see Rodtang and Ramon Dekker if they were in the same time in history.
Awesome fight.
So amazing 😬❤️❤️
Haggerty is a good elbow fighter but you can’t complain like you don’t fight Muay Thai tho especially when the hands come out or the didn’t hurt expression shows up other than that legit
Find it kinda weird that the ref didn’t check the fighter in the second knockdown in the round. He literally just picked him up and let him continue waiting for the 3rd knockdown.
Rodtang with Sam-A are my favoutites Ofc Muay Thai Fighters. And Nong-O
I would kill to see this guy in the UFC, assuming he learns high level grappling! Hell, even him just fighting in ONE’s MMA division would rock!
