At 39, Nong-O, an eight-time champion, continues his pursuit of greatness and potentially becoming a two-division world champion. Rodtang, 29, a dynamic fighter with an impressive record, is eager to prove himself after signing a new deal with ONE Championship. A win against Nong-O would significantly boost his legacy.
