Kongthoranee Sor Sommai revealed which of his tattoos is his favorite. The Sor Sommai warrior, a former two-time Rajadamnern Stadium Muay Thai world champion, has captured the attention of ONE Championship fans with a promotional record of 11-2.
The 28-year-old has also stood out due to his unique collection of tattoos. While speaking to ONE, Kongthoranee explained the story behind his most beloved tattoo:
"Tattoo of my big boss, Sommai Sakulmetta (Sor Sommai gym owner) in 2024. The reason I like it the most is because he is the person who has done me the most favor. He takes care of me and helps me with everything. He is like another father to me. I had planned to get a tattoo of his face and mine before. When the tattoo shop contacted me, I decided to get this tattoo right away."
