Rambolek Claims ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Title in Unanimous Decision Victory Over Nabil Anane

In a thrilling return to Bangkok's renowned Lumpinee Stadium, ONE Championship witnessed a historic moment as Rambolek Chor Ajalaboon seized the ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Title. The hard-hitting Thai fighter secured the biggest win of his career by decisively defeating reigning champion Nabil Anane in the main event.

From the outset, Nabil Anane maintained his distance, delivering sharp combinations while staying just beyond Rambolek's reach. Rambolek, the challenger, demonstrated patience and strategic defense, carefully observing and timing the defending champion's movements.

The momentum shifted dramatically in the second round. Rambolek began relentlessly targeting Anane's legs, employing powerful low kicks to wear down the towering 6-foot-3 Algerian-Thai fighter. Despite the increasing damage to his lead leg, Anane bravely continued to press forward.

The pivotal moment arrived in the third round when Rambolek unleashed a devastating overhand right that connected squarely, sending Anane crashing to the canvas. The challenger's dominance was further cemented in the fourth round with a second powerful knockdown, delivered by the same signature punch.

Entering the fifth and final round, Anane fought with desperation, attempting to reclaim his title. However, Rambolek displayed seasoned ring intelligence, employing an unyielding defense that effectively neutralized the champion's efforts.

Ultimately, Rambolek was declared the new ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion by unanimous decision from all three judges.
