Biography and career
Born as Saranon Glompan in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand, on January 22, 1996, Thongchai embarked on his professional fighting journey at just 11 years old in 2007.
On June 7, 2013, he captured the vacant welterweight title (147 lbs) at Lumpinee Stadium. His international debut occurred on November 23, 2013, in Macau, where he earned a decision victory over Eleha Nohi at 70 kg. Shortly thereafter, on December 13, 2013, Thongchai claimed the WMC Intercontinental Super Welterweight Championship (154 lb) by delivering a third-round TKO against Khayal Dzaniev in Russia.
Thongchai suffered a disputed defeat to Tobby Smith on January 3, 2014. However, he quickly recovered with a notable win over Fabio Pinca on February 8 in France, causing an arm injury that sidelined Pinca for more than a year. In May of that year, he earned gold at the IFMA World Championships held in Malaysia (71 kg). Later in August 2014, he achieved a knockout against Vong Noy during a bout in Cambodia.
Participating in the Top King World Series, Thongchai secured a decision win over Samy Sana in Paris on November 15, 2014. The following year saw him deliver three first-round knockouts: against Collin Law on July 28, Aydin Tuncay on September 4, and a third-round TKO over Adrien Rubis on October 17.
