Kiamran Nabati eyes Yod-IQ rematch after Nontachai win
Kiamran Nabati seeks a rematch with Yod-IQ Or Pimolsri, having previously lost to him by split decision. This desire follows his upcoming bout against Nontachai Jitmuangnon in the main event of The Inner Circle 31 on September 18th. The fight, a bantamweight Muay Thai match, was initially slated for ONE Fight Night 46 but was postponed due to a failed hydration test and Nontachai’s illness.
Nabati’s ultimate goal is a championship bout with Yod-IQ, the current ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion. Yod-IQ defeated Nabati in May and later won the title against Rambolek Chor Ajalaboon at The Inner Circle 30. Nabati believes he can defeat Yod-IQ, stating, "When I saw his fight, I knew that I could beat this guy because our fight was so close and I thought I was winning."
Before focusing on the championship rematch, Nabati is committed to defeating Nontachai. He views Friday's fight as his sole immediate concern, though the larger ambition remains present. Nabati intends to request a rematch with Yod-IQ from the matchmakers, aiming for a challenging five-round contest. "We will go there to win or die," he stated.
