Biography and career
Singtongnoi started training in Muay Thai at 10 years old with his dad, who was a fighter himself. He quickly went on to fight for a few hundred baht to help his family out of poverty.[1]
In 2015, after a long career which saw him win a Lumpinee title, Singtongnoi retired following an injury sustained in his last fight. He went back to live in the countryside and quickly accepted an offer from Evolve to teach Muay Thai in Singapore alongside former Muay Thai champions Nong-O Gaiyanghadao, Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke, and Sagetdao Petpayathai.[2]
In August 2016 doctors diagnosed him with cancer. Singtongnoi overcame the disease and saw it as a new start in his life, prompting him to come out of retirement and start fighting again, this time in the ONE Championship organization in 2018.[3] In his comeback, Singtongnoi faced Joseph Lasiri at ONE Championship: Unstoppable Dreams in a ONE Super Series Muay Thai match. He won the fight by TKO.[4] Next, he faced Masahide Kudo under ONE Super Series kickboxing rules at ONE Championship: Kingdom of Heroes in Bangkok on October 6, 2018. He would go on to win by unanimous decision.[5]
Singtongnoi began 2019 on a two-fight losing streak, first losing to Savvas Michael at ONE Championship: Warriors of Light on May 10, 2019 by unanimous decision.[6] Then, at ONE Championship: Immortal Triumph on September 6, 2019, he lost to Kohei "Momotaro" Kodera by KO in just 41 seconds of the first round, marking the fastest knockout in ONE Super Series history.[7] This record was later shattered by Capitan Petchyindee Academy, who knocked out Petchtanong Banchamek in just 6 seconds at ONE Championship: A New Breed 3 on September 18, 2020.[8]
