## Biography and career

Sangtiennoi had his first fight at 13 years of age against his parents' will, and won 100 baht. He moved to Lukmingkwan gym to start his career in Bangkok, where he took the name Sangtiennoi Sitsurapong.
Sangtiennoi was one of the most popular Muay Thai fighters of his era, receiving purses of over 200,000 baht. His aggressive fighting style made him a fan favorite and saw him fighting for the King's Birthday events against famous international competitors including Dany Bill and Ramon Dekkers.
Sangtiennoi was also a primary training partner and Thai-based teacher of successful Australian Muay Thai fighter John Wayne Parr.
During his fight with Yucel Fidan in 1999 Sangtiennoi, dislocated his shoulder. The injury would continue to hinder him, and he was forced to retire in 2000 when his shoulder was damaged against Takashi Ito in Japan.
During the recovery from injuries, Sangtiennoi opened a gym in his native Pathum Thani.
On May 16, 2021, Sangtiennoi took his own life with a gun, at the age of 54.
