Muay Thai superstar Rodtang Jitmuangnon went to war against Australian-Thai fighter Danial Williams last year. The two exchanged heavy leather and the high-stakes fight was electrifying for fans.

'The Iron Man' is a Muay Thai phenom who has collected multiple world titles and over 260 career victories at the age of just 25. 'Mini T' Williams, meanwhile, is a highly experienced Muay Thai and MMA fighter who has gone undefeated so far in 2022. His next fight is booked for ONE on Prime Video 3 on October 21.

On YouTube, ONE Championship has made Williams' Muay Thai showdown with Rodtang available for combat sports fans to enjoy:

Rodtang is a Muay Mat style fighter, which means he is primarily a puncher. 'Mini T' Williams stood in the pocket and exchanged punches with him, going back and forth with some heavy shots.

Early in the first round, Williams caught and tripped the Muay Thai world champion after the two exchanged punches. As the fight went on, the powerful Rodtang landed fists and elbows, but the bloodied Williams always threw back with authority. The Thai-Aussie athlete even landed a flying elbow, to which the Thai fighter returned with a flurry of punches and a low kick.

After trading salvos of punches throughout, Rodtang was able to walk away with a unanimous decision win.

After this bout, 'Mini T' Williams went undefeated, collecting three consecutive wins in 2022. He knocked out Zelang Zhaxi and Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke, both of which are featured in the above video, and dominated Namiki Kawahara.


Danial Williams looks to make it four in a row in 2022

Australia's 'Mini T' Danial Williams is looking to make it four consecutive wins in 2022 when he fights at ONE on Prime Video 3 on October 21. He will have a showdown against the dangerous Jeremy Miado.

Jeremy Miado and Danial Williams will collide in a bid to earn their place in the deep and competitive strawweight division. A win on October 21 will be vital for both men, so the stakes are sky-high as a shot at the world champion also looms ahead.

In an interview with ONE Championship, Williams explained that he is confident in his abilities ahead of the matchup:

“I believe my power, speed, angles, and mobility will be my advantages against him. And I just feel that I’m going to be a little bit difficult for him because he’s never really fought a striker who can move like me. He’s a bit linear, straight-lined, and can be predictable with his shots. That’ll be his weakness that I want to exploit with my movement.”
