Biography
Starting Muay Thai training at the age of 7, Petchtanong sought to escape a difficult family situation. At 12 years old, he relocated to Bangkok and joined the Sit.Or gym through the assistance of his uncle. By age 14, he was already headlining events at prestigious venues such as Rajadamnern Stadium and Lumpinee Boxing Stadium.
Following multiple gym transitions, Petchtanong gained sponsorship from Banchamek gym and spent two years residing in Australia where he also taught and competed. Upon returning to Thailand in 2015, he achieved a series of victories in the Super Muay Thai circuit and took part in significant Chinese kickboxing competitions including Kunlun Fight and Wu Lin Feng.
On January 19, 2019, he secured victory in the Wu Lin Feng World Cup final against Jomthong Chuwattana. During the 2020 Wu Lin Feng 67 tournament, Petchtanong knocked out Liu Yaning in the semifinals but was defeated by unanimous decision by Jia Aoqi in the final bout.
ONE Championship
Petchtanong inked a contract with ONE Championship on August 18, 2020. His debut occurred at ONE Championship: A New Breed 3 on September 18, 2020, where he suffered a knockout loss to Capitan Petchyindee Academy just six seconds into round one—setting a record for the quickest knockout in ONE Super Series history.
In his second outing, Petchtanong faced Zhang Chenglong at ONE Championship: Revolution on September 24, 2021, winning by unanimous decision.
He earned a shot at the ONE Bantamweight Kickboxing World Championship against Hiroki Akimoto at ONE 163 on November 19, 2022, emerging victorious via split decision.
Doping suspension
On July 26, 2023, Petchtanong was stripped of his title and handed a one-year suspension by ONE Championship after testing positive for prohibited substances metenolone and boldenone during an out-of-competition test conducted on June 10, 2023.
Following his suspension period, Petchtanong returned to competition on June 28, 2024, at ONE Friday Fights 68, where he defeated Alaverdi Ramazanov by technical knockout in the second round.
A scheduled bout against Nabil Anane on December 7, 2024, at ONE Fight Night 26 was canceled after Petchtanong failed to meet weight and hydration criteria and required hospitalization for intravenous treatment.
He is set to compete against Ilias Ennahachi on February 20, 2025, at ONE 171.
