Biography

edit

Sangmanee started to train on the age of 6, influenced by his father, a former Muay Thai fighter who discovered the talent his son possessed and began training Sangmanee at home.

At the age of 15, Sangmanee moved to 13 Coins Gym in Bangkok, a Muay Thai camp who had trained several champions, including the legendary Saenchai PKSaenchaimuaythaigym, where Sangmanee became the main star of the gym since Saenchai left 13 Coins and created his own gym.

On April 6, 2012, Sangmanee won his first major title when he defeated Phet Lukmakhamwan to capture the Lumpinee Stadium 105lbs title at 15 years old.

Not long after, on June 6, 2012, he defeated Dedkad Por Pongsawan to win the Rajadamnern Stadium 108lbs title.

On October 11, 2012, Sangmanee added another Muay Thai title to his résumé by defeating Kudsakornnoi Sor Junlasen for the S1 110lbs World Championship.

The following month, on November 9, 2012, he outscored Prajanchai P.K.SaenchaiMuaythaiGym for the Rajadamnern Stadium 112lbs title.

On December 7, 2012, he attempted to challenge Superlek Kiatmuu9 for the Lumpinee Stadium 115lbs title but lost by decision.

In 2012, Sangmanee had won a total of four Muay Thai titles, three of which were coveted stadium titles, in a span of less than 10 months and at only 15 years of age.

On February 21, 2013, he started the year by defeating Inseekao Rachanon for the Rajadamnern Stadium 115lbs title.

On February 28, 2014, Sangmanee took part in the King Fighter New Lumpinee Stadium Inauguration 124lbs 4-Man Tournament. In the Semi Finals, he outpointed Superlek Kiatmuu9 to advance. Sangmanee would face Superbank Mor Ratanabandit in the Final to win the tournament.

On December 1, 2014, Sangmanee nearly lost his life when he was poisoned before his match against Thanonchai Thor Sangtiennoi.[4]
