'Rodtang Jitmuangnon' posted asking his 'lawyer' to stop sending him messages as it is causing pressure; he says he barely has the energy to train before his fight with Takeru on 29 April.
On 19 April 2026, after Rodtang Jitmuangnon, former Muay Thai flyweight world champion, was sued by ONE Championship for breaching contract terms, Rodtang held a press conference affirming he still respects ONE and will fight on 29 April. His legal team also insisted on obtaining the complete contract.
Recently, ONE Championship is preparing to hold a press conference in front of the media together with Rodtang at the Jitmuangnon camp today at 3:00 p.m.
However, Rodtang Jitmuangnon posted a message asking his lawyer to stop sending him messages as he is under pressure and barely has the strength to train.
'Dear lawyer, please stop sending me messages. It puts pressure on me; I barely have the strength to train as it is. Please discuss legal matters with my lawyer instead.'
It remains to be seen how Rodtang will resolve this serious issue, making the fight between Rodtang and Takeru on 29 April at ONE SAMURAI highly interesting—not only the fight result or aftermath but also whether there will be any weigh-in controversies before the fight.
