Muay Thai star Aliff rewards parents with RM1 million bungalow

Ahmad Nor Iman Aliff Rakib, widely known as Aliff, has made a significant gift to his parents, Rakib Ahmad and Suriawati Che Wook, by purchasing a RM1 million bungalow in Rantau Panjang. This comes just a month after Aliff claimed the title of the first Malaysian to win a world championship in ONE mixed martial arts. The 22-year-old Muay Thai athlete revealed that the house was a token of appreciation for his parents' sacrifices and unwavering support throughout his career.

Aliff's crowning achievement so far was defeating Thai legend Sam-A Gaiyanghadao by knockout in the fifth round in Bangkok, securing the ONE Interim straw-weight Muay Thai world championship belt. This victory, which marked the culmination of years of rigorous training and a successful professional career in Bangkok, prompted him to pledge to bring home another belt.

Aliff also expressed his desire for the next fight to be held in Malaysia, should the opportunity arise.
