The Rise of Sanaechan

A champion built by family, heart and Boon Sport

Before she became a two-time WBC Muay Thai world champion, Sanaechan was a quiet, unsure girl who never imagined that Muay Thai - nor a small family gym - would change her entire life.

Her journey began long before she ever wrapped her hands. It began with her father, a man who loved Muay Thai deeply but never had the chance to compete himself. He grew up watching fights, studying fighters, and dreaming of one day passing this passion to his children. When his first son trained, rose in the Wan Songchai promotion, and eventually stepped away, he thought the dream might fade. But life had other plans.

A new path for a young girl

When Sanaechan was around eight, school became difficult. Being smaller than other kids meant being bullied, and they often came home discouraged. Her father, seeing the struggle, asked gently:

"Do you want to learn Muay Thai?"

"She said yes!" .

And that moment marked the beginning of everything.

Training was simple at first-backyard pads, borrowed gloves, whatever equipment they could manage. But soon, Sanaechan’s father began receiving help from Boon, as part of the brand’s program of supporting small , local gyms. Boon Sport provided durable Muay Thai gloves, pads, and training equipment, helping transform the family’s small efforts into a real training space.

"One day I’ll win. I have to win"

That grit, that determination, became her identity.

A new path for a young girl

Learning to fight, learning to overcome

With proper gear, the children trained harder. Sanaechan felt safer, stronger, and more confident. It wasn’t just equipment- it was belief.

Her father soon asked if she wanted to try competing. She agreed—quietly, nervously, bravely. Her first two fights ended in close losses. Despite being discouraged, she didn’t quit. Instead, she whispered the words that shaped her future:

As she trained daily-pushing her limits with every kick into Boon Sport pads-her confidence began to bloom. She made new friends in the gym, kids who trained with Boon Sport gear just like her. Together they built a small community built on discipline, trust, and the love of Muay Thai.

And then, the wins started coming.

For dozens of fights, she didn’t lose at all.

The family gym that changed everything

In 2017, her father asked:

“Do you want to fight professionally?”

She said yes.

So he opened a real Muay Thai gym-humble, built with heart, and supported again by Boon, who supplied Muay Thai bags, pads, and equipment that reflected their values: authenticity, durability, Thai craftsmanship, and supporting fighters from the ground up.

As the gym grew, local people came to train. During school breaks, children filled the gym, their small hands slipping into Boon Sport gloves. The space became more than a gym—it became a community home.

And Sanaechan was its heartbeat.

Becoming a champion

For two years, she competed in side-bet fights, sharpening her skills. Her discipline deepened; her courage solidified.

Then came the call that changed her life.

Commander Boonsong Nuayong, manager of the national team, invited her to the Thailand Championship selection. Sanaechan fought with everything inside her - and won.

She earned her place on the Thailand National Team, proving that a shy, bullied girl could rise to the highest level of Muay Thai.

And she didn’t stop there.
