The action came thick and fast at The Inner Circle 31, as the card delivered another memorable night of striking action at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday, September 18.

This thrilling showcase streamed live in Asia primetime exclusively to subscribers via live.onefc.com.

In the main event, Russian powerhouse Kiamran Nabati and Thai hard-hitter Nontachai Jitmuangnon went toe-to-toe across three rounds of bantamweight Muay Thai action. Nabati ultimately earned the unanimous decision victory after a furious battle that left both men wearing the damage.

Afterward, he called for a rematch with newly crowned ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion Yod-IQ Or Pimolsri, the only man to defeat him.

The co-main event produced another thriller, with Thai dynamo Yamin PK Saenchai weathering the relentless pressure of Russian sensation Alexey Balyko to claim a unanimous decision win in their bantamweight kickboxing showdown.
