This highly anticipated matchup takes place at Bangkok's famous Lumpinee Stadium on Friday, June 6, and will stream live during U.S. primetime hours.
This fight represents a crucial opportunity for Aliff to move one step closer to challenging the reigning champion, Prajanchai PK Saenchai, for the ONE Strawweight World Title. The 21-year-old contender is known for his exciting and explosive fighting style. He is currently on a three-fight winning streak, showcasing his elite finishing abilities.
El Jamari enters the bout with a strong reputation built on his recent knockout victory over Thongpoon PK Saenchai during his promotional debut. Fans anticipate a thrilling encounter, as both fighters possess highlight-reel power and finishing skills. Aliff understands the stakes and has trained rigorously for this contest, stating, "For this fight, I’m 100 percent ready, and I’ve been fully committed to my training. It’s been a tough camp. But I know I can win this fight." His confidence shows how serious he takes his drive for title contention.
Throughout his career, Aliff has built a solid reputation, finishing five of his seven victories in ONE by knockout. His journey in the sport has established him as one of the best finishers in Muay Thai today. Aliff believes this fight will be a test of not only skills but also their knockout power. He expresses, "I’m ready to test his power in this fight. I expect a fierce fight. Anything can happen in a fight. But I’m confident my KO power is better than his." He adds that he intends to maximize his knockout potential, driven by his faith and determination.
Winning against El Jamari is crucial for Aliff’s aspirations. He firmly believes that a victory will secure him a title shot against Prajanchai: "I’m very confident that if I win this fight, I will get the chance to fight Prajanchai for his belt." This confidence fuels his preparation and mental state heading into the bout.
Aliff's impressive streak includes significant wins over noted fighters such as Brazilian Walter Goncalves, Russian Shamil Adukhov, and Zakaria El Jamari, who happens to be Elmehdi's older brother. Aliff’s previous fight against Zakaria last August at ONE Fight Night 24 ended swiftly, with Aliff securing victory in less than two minutes.

Now, facing the younger Elmehdi, Aliff acknowledges the challenge he presents shows progression in their fighting families. "Yeah, I’ve knocked out his brother. I think both of them have the same style. But, in my opinion, Elmehdi is much more powerful than Zakaria. He’s much more complete than his brother." Aliff respects the improvements Elmehdi has made and purposely prepares to encounter a more evolved adversary.
Beyond the confidence, Aliff has analyzed Elmehdi's strengths. He notes that speed, punching power, and the ability to throw effective combinations make Elmehdi a more dangerous opponent.
