Biography and career

Sitthichai Sitsongpeenong was born as Anulak Jansuk (อนุรักษ์ จันทร์สุข, Thai pronunciation: [ʔànúrák ʨansùk]) in Buriram in Northeastern (Isan) region of Thailand on September 23, 1991. He had his first fight at the age of 11 in 2002.[3]

A rematch between Sitthichai and Fabio Pinca went down at Best of Siam 3 in Paris, France on February 14, 2013 and he came out on top again, winning a unanimous decision.[4][5][6]

He lost a slip decision to Enriko Gogokhia on the Oktagon 2013 event that was Glory 7: Milan undercard in Milan, Italy on April 20, 2013. He had initially been set to face Davit Kiria on the main card but was demoted to the prelims when his opponent was changed.[7]

It was reported that he would fight Kamel Jemel at the WBC World Muay Thai Millennium Championship in Saint-Pierre, Réunion on September 7, 2013.[8] However, he denied ever being on the card.[9]

He beat Juri Kehl on points at MAX Muay Thai 2 in Pattaya, Thailand on June 29, 2013.[10] It was a fairly one-sided fight, although Kehl did land a high kick in round two which knocked Sitthichai down. However, the referee counted it as a slip.[11]

He won by decision against Jordan Watson at MAX Muay Thai 3 in Zhengzhou, China on August 10, 2013.[12]

He outpointed Wanchalerm Udduonmuang in the main event of Yokkao 6 in Pattaya, Thailand on January 4, 2014.[13]

He took an extension round decision over Chingiz Allazov at Thai Boxe Mania in Turin, Italy on January 25, 2014.[14]

Sitthichai defeated Mohamed Khamal via UD at Legend 3: Pour Homme in Milan, Italy on April 5, 2014.[15][16][17]

He knocked out Johann Fauveau in round two at Best of Siam 5 in Paris, France on June 14, 2014.[18]

In 2015 he won the Glory contender tournament leading to a fight with Robin Van Roosmalen, which he lost in a highly controversial decision. In 2016 he competed and won the Glory contender tournament again, beating Davit Kiria and Marat Gregorian who had beat previously.
