PTT Apichatfarm Withdraws from The Inner Circle 30 Due to Illness
Renowned Muay Thai fighter PTT Apichatfarm has officially withdrawn from his scheduled bout at The Inner Circle 30, citing a sudden illness.
According to a report by Khaosod Online Thailand, Muay Thai athlete PTT Apichatfarm has announced his withdrawal from the upcoming The Inner Circle 30 event. PTT issued a public apology to his opponent, Hamza Rachid, the event organizers at ONE Championship, and his fans, explaining that he has been suffering from a sudden illness since September 9, 2026.
In his statement, the fighter expressed deep regret, noting that he did not want to disappoint those who had purchased tickets or online access to watch the match. He emphasized that he chose to withdraw rather than risk a poor performance or further health complications. To maintain the event schedule, organizers have promoted the bout between Kongchai Chainaidonmuang and Alek Singhmawin, originally slated for ONE Lumpinee 170, to fill the vacancy.
For residents and visitors in Thailand, this change highlights the dynamic nature of professional combat sports scheduling. While the event will proceed as planned with the replacement match, those who specifically purchased tickets to see PTT may wish to check the official ONE Championship policy regarding event changes. At this time, there is no information regarding a rescheduled date for the PTT versus Hamza Rachid bout, nor details on the specific nature of the fighter's illness beyond his statement that he is currently focusing on recovery.
