British striking standout ‘Lethal’ Liam Nolan was confident he had done enough to walk away with another big win at ONE Fight Night 18 on Prime Video.
Last Friday, January 12, Nolan made his long-awaited debut in the legendary Lumpinee Boxing for a showdown with Russian debutant Ali Aliev.
Through three rounds of intense action, Nolan tore through Aliev, earning an impressive unanimous decision victory.
Standing there waiting for circle announcer Dom Lau to make the official announcement, ‘Lethal’ was confident that it would be his hand raised:
“I was very confident, yes, very confident that I took the win,” Nolan said at the post-fight press event. “Definitely thought I did enough, I hurt him multiple times. So yeah I was confident I won the fight.”
