Reigning and undisputed ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion 'The Iron Man' Rodtang Jitmuangnon of Thailand is hardly affected by the trash talk coming his way via upcoming opponent, 'The Bosnian Menace' Denis Puric.

'The Iron Man' says he understands all the trash talk is just part of the game and he doesn't think much of it.
Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Rodtang says he's just excited to get back into action and throw down in the Circle.
'The Iron Man' stated:
"I have no interest in what he says. All I care about is when we step inside the ring. Everything else is just noise."
