'Go For The Knockout' – Yod-IQ Eyes Decisive Performance in World Title bout at The Inner Circle 30

Thai striker Yod-IQ Or Pimolsri has earned his moment. The 24-year-old challenges reigning ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion Rambolek Chor Ajalaboon at The Inner Circle 30 on Friday, September 11.
The Inner Circle 30 streams exclusively on live.onefc.com from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, and this main event battle marks his first-ever ONE Championship world title opportunity.
Both fighters are graduates of the ONE Friday Fights circuit who earned US$100,000 contracts through impressive performances, and both arrive with elite coaches in their corners.
Yod-IQ trains under former ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Champion Tawanchai PK Saenchai, while Rambolek is guided by reigning ONE Featherweight Kickboxing World Champion Superbon. The trainer rivalry adds a compelling subplot to an already loaded all-Thai title fight.
Yod-IQ Was Shocked by How Fast His Title Shot Arrived for The Inner Circle 30
The speed of Yod-IQ's ascent to a world title fight has surprised even the challenger himself. What has not surprised him is the logic behind it, and the win over Kiamran Nabati gave him all the confirmation he needed that the opportunity was deserved.
"When I saw the fight card pairing me against Rambolek, I was a bit shocked because my time came so fast. But it felt earned because it's such a massive opportunity. Beating Kiamran, who was previously undefeated, proved that I truly deserved a shot at the championship title," Yod-IQ said.
His 127-36 career striking record and 10-fight winning streak are the foundation of a title shot that came quickly but was built on consistent, high-quality performances. Stopping an undefeated Russian, who was a top contender and had previously claimed four victories over world-class Thai opponents in ONE Championship, certainly solidified his standing.
Thai Star Sees a Close Fight, Backs the Trainer Battle as the Decisive Factor
The all-Thai matchup between two fighters who share a promotional background and a similar level of technical development has produced an honest, nuanced breakdown from the challenger. Yod-IQ does not see a wide gap between the two fighters in the areas that matter most.
"When it comes to fight IQ, I don't think Rambolek and I are far apart at all. It's going to be a tough match to call. We both have great trainers and cornermen to adjust our tactics. He has Superbon, and I have Tawanchai," he explained.
Tawanchai PK Saenchai and Superbon have crossed paths under the ONE Championship banner before, giving their respective fighters a shared reference point when it comes to the level of preparation both camps can deliver.
Yod-IQ Backs His Size, Versatility to Produce a Knockout Finish

For all the respect Yod-IQ holds for Rambolek's level, the challenger has identified specific advantages he plans to exploit on September 11. Physical and technical edges combined give him a clear path to the kind of finish he is specifically targeting.
"I'm physically bigger than Rambolek. It might not be a huge difference, but I am bigger. Plus, my versatility of strikes is a big factor. If the opportunity comes, I definitely want to go for the knockout. It would earn me a bonus and secure the title without any doubt. I want a decisive finish," he declared.
A knockout of the reigning champion in a first-ever title shot would be the most emphatic possible statement. Rambolek's 68-14 career record and six-fight winning streak make him a formidable defending champion, but Yod-IQ's size edge, striking versatility, and incredible momentum he carries into September 11 give him the tools to make good on the boldest possible prediction.
