What's at stake
At ONE 170 in January 2025, a 20-year-old Nabil Anane dropped Nico Carrillo three times and stopped him at 2:35 of round one for the interim bantamweight title. The Scot, known as the King of the North, then moved up to featherweight and won four straight, taking the interim belt from Shadow Mavinn in February 2026 before being elevated to undisputed champion in July when Tawanchai vacated. This is his first defence.
Anane, an Algerian-Thai fighter, has since lost his bantamweight title to Rambolek Chor Ajalaboon and dropped a split decision to Suakim in August 2026. He bounced back in kickboxing with a decision win over former K-1 champion Yuki Yoza in October. A win would give him gold in a second division and a 2-0 lead in the series.
