One day before One Lumpinee 34 officially took place, 2 Superlek Kiatmoo9 and RotTang Jitmuangnon boxers performed a weight test. The surprise came when Superlek exceeded the weight of 2.3kg, thereby losing the opportunity to win the Muay One Championship Championship Flyweight.
Initially, according to the announcement from ONE Championship, the match between Superlek Kiatmoo9 and Rottang Jitmuangnon will be the Champion of the Championship Championship of the Flyweight. This is the Superlek match participating as a challenge, and RotDang protects the belt. But with Superlek too weight, everything had to change.
In order for the match to continue, One Championship decided to adjust the match to become a competition in the 140 pound weight class. The competition between 2 boxers lasted 3 rounds, meaning that Superlek could not win the belt even when winning. However, that did not make RotTang too concerned.
“I agree to play even if the opponent is 2kg heavier. That's the way I have proved myself became the strongest Muay boxer in the world. If I did not accept the fight, the world fans, as well as the Thai audience, would miss a fascinating match,” Rottang added.
In fact, Rottang also had time to have problems with weight. He has committed Quy in some matches in the past 12 months. But to prepare for One Lumpinee 34, “Iron people” have successfully weighted. Unlike One Fight Night, all of One Lumpinee's matches are tested for a closed weight, instead of live broadcast.
