Nabil Anane says rest is just as important as he goes into overdrive for Superlek redo at ONE 172: "You need to sleep well"

Nabil Anane has compensated his body well with rest after rigorous training sessions in his training camp for the undisputed ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title clash against Superlek Kiatmoo9.

They are scheduled to face each other for the second time on March 23 at ONE 172 inside the Saitama Super Arena in Japan.

During his most recent appearance on Fightlore's YouTube channel, Nabil Anane pointed out the importance of sleep and rest in his regime, as he explained:

"You need to sleep well. Rest is very important. I got two rest days in a week. I rest on Thursday afternoon or Thursday morning, it depends. On Thursdays, I just do low (intensity) small training. Just train a little bit, and then Sunday is my day off the whole day."
