On September 22, 2018, ONE Championship will welcome two Muay Thai icons to the ONE Super Series stage. Both fighting out of Thailand, Rodtang Jitmuangnon, 21, and Yodpanomrung Jitmuangnon, 24, are making their ONE Super Series debut at “ONE: Conquest of Heroes” at the Jakarta Convention Center in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Yodpanomrung is coming in with a ton of experience in Muay Thai, having an impressive six world title reigns on his resume, including the World Muaythai Council and World Professional Muaythai Federation World Championships.
With a professional record of 230 wins, 68 losses and 2 draws, Yodpanomrung is hailed as one of the top pound-for-pound Muay Thai practitioners in the sport today. He will be welcomed into the promotion by three-time MAX Muay Thai World Champion “The Funky Drummer” Fabrice Fairtex Delannon, 36, of French Guiana and France.
At “ONE: Conquest of Heroes,” Yodpanomrung and Delannon will compete in a Muay Thai contest in the bantamweight division. The Thai contender said, “I am happy to be part of the growing ONE Championship family.”
“I would also like to thank everyone who made this possible,” Yodpanomrung added. “I can’t wait to have my promotional debut and exhibit what I am capable of doing.”
“My debut bout against Fabrice Delannon is sure to be an exciting one,” the Thai martial artist continued. “We are both high-level Muay Thai practitioners, and we will definitely give the fans in Jakarta a show.”
With Muay Thai and kickboxing stars like Giorgio “The Doctor” Petrosyan, Nong-O Gaiyanghadao and many others already competing under the ONE Championship umbrella, it is no doubt that the Singapore-based promotion is already the undisputed home of the world’s best martial artist. Meanwhile, here is one of Yodpanomrung’s recent bouts:
