Scotsman Nico Carrillo will face Nabil Anane for the ONE interim bantamweight Muay Thai world title following Superlek Kiatmoo9's injury.
Carrillo was originally slated to fight Superlek, one of the best pound-for-pound strikers on the planet.
However, Superlek's knee injury means Carillo will take on Thai-Algerian Anana on January 24 at the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand at the ONE 170 event, live on Sky Sports.
The winner of the fight will fight Superlek in a world title fight at ONE 172 in Japan at the end of March.
Carrillo has won all of his bouts with the promotion, and the hard-hitting Scot has stopped all of his opponents the distance.
He is #1 in the division and has his sights set on the Muay Thai bantamweight title holder.
“Everything I said, I did. I put my neck on the line because I'm coming out with these bold statements about what I'm going to do, but I still haven't made a mistake,” Carrollo said earlier Sky Sports.
“I have a burning belief in myself. I simply prove myself right every time.”
Going undefeated in ONE Championship, with all four wins by knockout, underscores that confidence, as he added, “I know what the fans want to see in ONE and that's violence, so I changed my style for that.”
