is alread💙y a breakout sensation in ONE Championship, and he has all the potential to reach the top in the🧔 world’s largest martial arts organization. 

Next, the 20-year-old phenom will square off against lethwei legend in a bantamweight Muay Thai clash at  on Septembe🍨r 27. 

Although Anane lost in his ONE debut against pound-for-pound great , the setback only spurr♌ed him on – and he’s taken big scalp after big scalp to earn the .

The surging Algerian-Thai striker will be looking for his fifth straight win and another step forward when he returns to action in Asia primetime at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok♌, Thailand. 

Before Anane steps into the ring f☂or another big test, check out three reasons why he could be a future superstar in the world of Muay Thai. 

#1 He’s Already Beaten Top Names 

While An🐟ane’s 37-5 professional record is impressi✨ve, it’s still early days compared to some of his experienced peers in ONE’s stacked bantamweight Muay Thai division.  

Still, the younꦏgster already has some incredible names oܫn his resume that put him ahead of the curve. 

After becoming the✱ youngeꩵst WBC Muay Thai World Champion in history, he jumped in to face current ONE Kickboxing and Muay Thai World Champion Superlek in his big-show debut.   

That matchuꦑp represented a massive step up in competition, but Anane has since beaten a host of elite names, including seasoned Muay Thai World Champions and , along with two-time ONE World Title challenger . 

At this point, it’s clear that Anane is ready to 👍mix it up with the best 🐬of the best for a long time to come. 

#2 He’s Incredibly Tall

Anane’s opponents have consistently struggled to deal🐷 with his🦋 unique frame. 

Despite competing at the bantamweight limit of 1🌺45 pounds, he stands at a coloss🍸al 6-foot-4, which is a height that most of his peers have never had to encounter inside the ring.

But it’s not enough to just have that height; the Pattaya resident knows how t🧜o♈ use it.

Anane has very long⛎ limbs that can land from way outside of his foe’s range in any fight as he throws sharp combinations 🦹and long kicks. 

He can also use those limbs to score crushing knees in the clinch when the distance closes, meaning he is dangerous no matter what range h💎is rivals try to beat him in. 

#3 He’s A Finisher 

On the surface, Anane’s praying mantis-like frame might not look as powerful as those 📖of hi🦋s stockier counterparts, but he makes the leverage pay off. 

Notably, he has knocked out four opponents in his last six wins, including Kulabdam and , who have both s𝓰hown their durability against other big hitters.  

The Tea🅘m Mehdi Zatout representative has a potent right hand that can turn out the ꦿlights if it lands on his opponent’s chin.  

His knees can also get the job done, and he has sharp elbows that ha🦩ve💮 helped him dispatch rivals in previous fights.  

This makes Anane incredibly dangerous for the rest of the ban🎃tamweight division – but exci𝄹ting for fans, who will always tune in to see him in action.
