“There’s a difference” - Rodtang Jitmuangnon warns Denis Puric of being overconfident

Reigning and undisputed ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion 'The Iron Man' Rodtang Jitmuangnon is coming off an arm injury earlier this year to finally make his first appearance in the circle in 2024. And the 26-year-old can't wait to get in there and silence his next opponent, who has been talking a little bit of trash.

Rodtang is set to lock horns with 'The Bosnian Menace' Denis Puric in the co-main event at ONE 167: Tawanchai vs. Nattawut II on Prime Video. The event broadcasts live from the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.

Fans in the United States and Canada can catch all the action live and absolutely free with an active Amazon Prime Video subscription. The show airs Friday, June 7, on U.S. primetime.

Puric has spewed plenty of venom Rodtang's way, and now 'The Iron Man' has sent a chilling response.
