Kiamran Nabati made it two victories from as many outings on the global stage of ONE Championship in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 55.
The Russian striker oozed confidence from start to finish as he saw off stout-hearted Avatar PK Saenchai in a blistering three-round bantamweight Muay Thai scrap inside the revered Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Nabati went all out from the sound of the bell, utilizing his out-of-the-box spinning kicks and power punches to test the Thai's defense early.
Once he had his notes penciled down, the Archangel Michel affiliate continued to up the pace and stay ahead whenever they swapped strikes.

Eager to maintain his lead in the ONE Friday Fights 55 headliner, Nabati shifted a gear up and went low to slow down the PK Saenchai Muay Thai Gym star.
That forced the Thai to be more of a static target as things went in favor of the Russian in the final three minutes. In turn, Nabati went guns blazing and applied the final flourish with a stinging right hand.
After three rounds of war, the 29-year-old picked up the unanimous decision victory to move 20-0 overall and 2-0 at ONE Friday Fights.
