Appreciate Vincent giving Muay thai its due over the past year. Truly an honorable discipline and some of the most gifted and dedicated fighters we will ever know. Not concerned with money or fame, true modern day warriors and some of the humblest and kindest people out there.

[@STiergoofball]

That's normal for Muay Thai fighters And I really appreciate that I like stuff like the UFC but I have a problem with the missing respect that is giving after fights and at all and if you are humble then you will get kicked out most of the time because you aren't interesting enough Sad business in my opinion

[@memesinc5852]

Rodtangs fight with Mighty Mouse was what made Rodtang want to pursue MMA. He has mastered everything there is to know about striking, but being submitted with BJJ by Mighty Mouse showed him that there is still another realm to delve into. Cant wait to see this beast in the UFC. People better be ready.

[@chefxhyrule242]

Why would he leave one to go to the ufc

[@hulkman245]

[@Berserker-lw6kd]

He won't be in the UFC to much money and tbh better competition in ONE

[@zGJungle]

Rodtang is such a beast, in his mind he is a 800lbs bear that fears nothing, such a badass.

[@df3kt]

I swear he enjoys getting hit in the face. It has to be real disheartening to be punching him in the face as hard as you can and he just walks forward screaming. The dude is a god damn animal. I always imagine bigger dudes who don't know who he is picking a fight and he just tears them apart

[@marcobrancorsini2479]

There was a guy who said "I think if they were in a bar, Rodtang would, with no hesitation, swing on Ngannou"💀💀💀💀I mean he's too light to win but he'd definitely have the balls LMAO

[@TightLinesNI]

Absolutely buzzing to see Rodtang getting some love from Joe Vincent. He's truly a special fighter.

[@josephhanicak7922]

Rodtang's striking was actually terrifying in the DJ fight. I didn't know who he was before that fight, and it certainly made me want to know.

[@MitchJohnson0110]

DJ said Rodtang hit him harder than any other fighter in his career. Which is saying something because Mighty Mouse usually fights dudes bigger than him

[@TerkkoB]

@@John.Flower.Productions damn this aged well for this to be 3 days ago 😢

[@giulio76ful]

I'm a huge fan of DJ who I consider among the 10 best fighters in the world for talent, athleticism, technical ability and obviously for his very high fight IQ but I'm sincere and it's a bit hard for me to admit it but I've never seen DJ in such difficulty as in that first round.. he too had those eyes that all Rodtang's opponents have when they really realize they are facing a force of nature.. I have no problem admitting that in a traditional muay thai match Dj probably wouldn't have finished the 3rd round if not the 2nd against that Rodtang.. luckily for him in the cage you escape more easily than in a ring then with all his agility.. plus he didn't miss the chance to bring Rodtang to the ground in the 2nd to then finish very easily given Rodtang's inexperience in the ground game..@@MitchJohnson0110

[@bandit6272]

I love how Rodtang powers up like a Dragon Ball Z character 😂. That being said, I sometimes worry about how much punishment he takes with his headlong style. Not taking a thing away from him, but even the iron man is really just flesh and blood, and that stuff adds up. I don't want to see his career shortened by cumulative damage.

[@sergiomoney101]

That's what I thought as time goes on. It's the reason why I would never want to become a professional. The risk of CTE is something to really be wary of. Regardless his resilience is something to be admired.

[@rosemarietolentino3218]

It’s inevitable to be hit in the head consistently and it not affect you mentally…Football players with helmets on are getting brain damage…

[@TaRiqTheVisionary]

I meannnn 😂 in any physical sport what do you expect in the end?

[@bandit6272]

@@TaRiqTheVisionary Sports put a lot of mileage on the body. That is true. But not all sports are equally hard on the body and not everybody's fighting/playing style is equally hard on them. I don't want him to either lose that incredibly entertaining aggression, or have his career shortened by injury. In a perfect world I'd just like him to be a little harder to hit, but I get that there's no "free lunch" so to speak.

[@bluehivecreative]

@@LIONTAMER3D This old head respects the "new school" but clings to the traditions of the past. To your point of it being different, I find that it provokes more punching because of the damage that the gloves obviously permit instead of allowing the traditional correct weapon selection for the correct situation. (Just old head talk to be taken with a grain of salt...). That being said, I do enjoy One FC and the effort of escalating the platform for the world to see. (More importantly putting MORE money in the pockets of the fighters and those that prepare them to fight). Sawadee!

[@beyondhomosapien]

I love the sportsmanship that we see here. This is the kind of champion we need to showcase all over the world: someone who shows off the true values of the martial arts… it isn’t about shit talk and showmanship but about respect, humility, and SKILL. Rodtang has it all

[@troysmith6929]

[@Kodcha24]

Ancient Muay Thai is a killer. Not many people know and often compare Muay Thai and mma. Said that muay thai can't fight mma but they still don't know ancient muay thai. If fighting to kill we use ropes tied to our hands and it's so easy that just one punch can put them to sleep.
