JAKARTA - A total of eight global muay thai champions will compete for the best position at the ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Grand Prix (GP) which is scheduled to take place at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, Singapore, on 20 May.
Coming to the list, based on official ONE Championship data on Tuesday, will be Rodtang Jitmuangnon, Jonathan Haggerty, Superlek Kiatmoo9, Walter Goncalves, Taiki Naito, Savvas Michael, Jacob Smith, and Amir Naseri.
ONE Championship CEO Chatri Sityodtong said that the upcoming battle will go down in history where global champions can compete in one championship.
"Without a doubt, this tournament will break the audience record ever recorded in muay thai on the world's largest martial arts stage, and take the discipline to a new level around the world," said Chatri Sityodtong as quoted by Antara.
“Muay thai has been my greatest passion for over 35 years as a student, competitor, teacher, coach, promoter, and now CEO. It is an honor in my life to bring muay thai to the world and help develop it for this beloved community everywhere. LET'S GOOOOO!!! #WeAreONE," he added.
The format of the fight itself is that the eight best muay thai fighters will fight from the quarter-finals to fight for the silver belt. The champion of this prestigious tournament also deserves a place to challenge Rodtang Jitmuangnon as the gold belt owner and reigning ONE Flyweight Muay Thai champion.
What is unique, instead of waiting for his next challenger, Rodtang will participate in this tournament as a participant. The Thai fighter is not quite satisfied with the gold belt and hopes to combine it with the silver belt.
The involvement of "The Iron Man" in this tournament is increasingly giving color. However, his gold belt is not at stake in this tournament which means that should the steel-jaw owner lose, his status as the king of muay thai in his division remains unchanged.
Rodtang will face Jacob Smith, a dangerous striker from England who is also a teammate of Liam Harrison.
Former ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Champion Jonathan Haggerty was also featured. The owner of a 4-2 record in ONE Super Series will face fierce resistance from Walter Goncalves. Both are also mortal rivals of Rodtang.
