If you want to see the best Thai fighters in the world today, look no further than ONE Championship. The global martial arts organization features some of the very best Thai fighters in kickboxing, Muay Thai, and MMA, along with a myriad of other renowned athletes across the world.
One thing you need to know about Thai fighters is that nearly all of them start very young and fight very frequently. By that, we meant an insane number of fights, ranging from four to as many as eight fights a year - maybe even more.
To understand how incredible this is, let's look at boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr, who retired at 40 years old with a record of 50 pro fights under his belt. ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon, who is just 26 as of this writing, has already had over six times as many pro fights, with 324 bouts already.
That, for the lack of a better term, is insane.
ONE Championship posted a graphic of its Thai fighters with the most fights so far:
Fans are reacting to the post in various ways in the comments section:
@_tijaay and @lgn4 can't get over the crazy numbers:
"Over 300+ fights is crazy"
"Bros almost 400+ fights"
@thayes705 summarized it best:
"Thais are built different"
ONE Championship's most prolific fight records will be on display at ONE Friday Fights 58
