Thai fighter PTT Apichat Farm became a social media talking point after posting on his personal Facebook page that he failed to make weight before facing Moroccan opponent Hamza Rachid under Thai boxing rules in the bantamweight division (135-145 lbs) at The Inner Circle 38 on Friday, November 13, 2026.

In his post, PTT wrote: "Missed weight, everyone. Sorry, everyone. I tried my hardest. This 145-pound fight is my last one. The spirit is willing but the body can't take it. Waiting to see if my opponent agrees to compensation to fight. Don't blame anyone else. Blame me alone. Sorry, everyone. Sorry, opponent Hamza Rachid, that I couldn't make the weight for you."

The bout was meant to be PTT's return to form against the in-form Moroccan fighter Hamza Rachid. The Inner Circle 38 card is headlined by the ONE Muay Thai World Grand Prix flyweight (125-135 lbs) semi-finals, featuring "Rot Thang Jitmuangnon" against "Nong O Hamamuaythai" and Japan's "Shimon" versus Lebanon's "Ramadan Ondash," broadcast live for members on Live.ONEFC.com from 18:30-20:30.
