Sagat Petchyindee (สกัด เพชรยินดี; born Wirun Phonphimai (วิรุฬห์ ผลพิมาย) on November 30, 1957), also known as Sagat Phonthawee (สกัด พรทวี), is a Thai former professional boxer, Muay Thai fighter, actor and trainer who is considered one of the greatest Muay Thai fighters of all time. He was a 3 time Lumpinee Champion, 3 time Rajadammern Champion and Muay Thai and Kickboxing World Champion.[1][2]

Combat career

Sagat Petchyindee (สกัด เพชรยินดี) amassed a total of 317 Thai boxing fights with 266 wins, 40 losses and 11 draws, 151 of those victories coming by way of KO/TKO.

Petchyindee also fought Dieselnoi Chor Thanasukarn twice in 1984, on June 7 and October 6, but lost both fights to Dieselnoi on points.[3]

Moreover, Sagat Petchyindee (in the name Sagat Phonthawee) has a total of 14 professional boxing fights with 12 victories (8 KO/TKO) and 2 defeats. He lost to Wilfredo Gómez in boxing.[6] The bout with Gomez was for the WBC's world Super Bantamweight championship and it was preceded by a large tragedy which took place when the stadium it was held at suffered a collapse, killing 10 and injuring 300.[7][8]

Post career

Since retiring, Sagat works as a kickboxing trainer.[9][10]

Sagat taught Firas Zahabi, who later co-founded the Tristar Gym, the art of Muay Thai.[11][12]

Sagat was likely the inspiration for the character Sagat in the Street Fighter video game.[13][14]
