Lito Adiwang expects Rodtang to dominate at ONE 169
ONE strawweight MMA star Lito Adiwang is confident Rodtang will easily defend the 135-pound Muay Thai crown against Jacob Smith at ONE 169 because of Rodtang's domination of the United Kingdom star in May 2022.
Speaking exclusively with Sportskeeda MMA, 'Thunder Kid' stated:
"80 percent excited, because we've seen this before. If this was going to be their first encounter, maybe I'd get a little more excited because I want to find out what happens. But we all know who Rodtang is."
