Biography
Sudsakorn is one of Thailand's most famous 'nak muay' (fighter). His real name is Som Klinmee but his nickname is « O » among Thai people. He began practicing Muay Thai at the age of 6. He began training under his stepfather Yaak and his older cousin Rambaa Somdet M16. Between the ages of 10 and 18, he was taken in by his uncle Tappaya of the Sit-Or Gym in Pattaya. Then, at 18, Sudsakorn met an Irishman named Graig O'Flynn, who opened the Sitjaipetch Gym. During this time, Sudsakorn had the opportunity to fight four times in England and Ireland. Later on, he moved to the Scoprion Gym in Pattaya. When he was around 23, his uncle Tappaya retired and opened the Sor Klinmee Gym where Sudsakorn had been training for the last 6 years. He received an offer to join the Fairtex Gym but he refused to leave his uncle's gym. He became part of the Venum Team and moved to the Venum Training Camp for a couple of years before deciding to leave in order to open his Sudsakorn Muay Thai Gym, where he trains and teaches. Sudsakorn is also the owner of the recently opened Sudsakorn Arena Stadium, which consists of a complex of 7 men's football fields surrounded by some small shops.
Sudsakorn's first European experience was in Ireland; where he had been living, training and teaching for three months. During his early career, he arrived in France in order to make a name for himself in Europe by fighting the best fighters in his weight class of 64–70 kg. In the early months of 2010, Sudsakorn lived and trained in Torino with his manager and friend Filippo Cinti. He fought around Italy for a couple of years before meeting his wife. Sudsakorn signed a contract with the Thai Fight promotion in 2011, which resulted in him fighting mostly in Thailand. In May 2013, he participated in a 32-man tournament: Thai Fight Kard Chuek. He would become the THAI FIGHT Kard Chuek tournament champion winning the final round against Saiyok Pumpanmuang on December 22, 2013. Sudsakorn also fought on a number of international Yokkao events beginning from 2012 on the promotion's first official event, Yokkao Extreme. He also joined other Muay Thai champions such as Buakaw Banchamek, Saenchai, Dzhabar Askerov and many others on the Yokkao-sponsored Muay Thai Combat Fan Expo in 2011, showcasing the sport to fans in Italy.[3]
His fighting name is derived from a Thai legend: Sudsakorn is a child brought up in the ancient mystical traditions of Thailand. His mother, a siren, sends him away to find his father whom he's never met. Armed with his grandfather's magical weapon and accompanied by his horse-dragon hybrid, Sudsakorn embarks on a long and dangerous journey.
