‘Mini T’ Danial Williams has never been the kind of fighter that backs down from a challenge when called upon to step up to the plate.

This reputation has followed him ever since his first introduction to the ONE Championship fans, which saw him take on one the best strikers in the world today.

His 2021 clash with Rodtang Jitmuangnon is always going to be a part of the promotion’s history books as a contest that marked both men out as fan favorites.

During a recent interview with Southern Cross Combat, Williams reflected on the fight and how those kinds of matchups are something that he lives for.

Danial Williams also said that sharing the circle with a competitor like ‘The Iron Man’ is what motivates him to continue competing in striking to this day:

“But I just love it like when it’s just two guys like going toe-to-toe with each other. That’s just my favorite and I absolutely loved doing that with Rodtang. That fight made me think like, ‘Damn, I want to do Muay Thai again.’”
