KOTA BARU: Muay Thai sensation Ahmad Nor Iman Aliff Rakib has made a significant investment, purchasing a RM1 million bungalow for his parents. The 22-year-old champion revealed that the house in Rantau Panjang was complete and ready to be moved into, serving as a gesture of appreciation for his parents' sacrifices and support. Aliff, driven by his desire to make his parents proud, mentioned that the funds for the house came from his earnings as a Muay Thai athlete.
His crowning achievement to date was defeating Thai legend Sam-A Gaiyanghadao by knockout in the fifth round at Lumpinee Stadium, Bangkok, securing the ONE interim strawweight muay thai World Championship belt.
