FIGHTING STYLE
PRIMARY: Muay Thai
SECONDARY: Submission Grappling
STANCE: Orthodox

STRENGTHS
+ Clinch Dominance: Somsak is deadly in close quarters, using sharp elbows, knees, and positional control honed from traditional Muay Thai. Once he’s in range, he controls pace and punishes any hesitation.

+ Tactical Control: He excels at dictating the rhythm of the fight. Whether standing or grappling, he maintains composure and forces opponents to fight on his terms.

+ Exceptional Conditioning: His monk-like training discipline gives him superior cardio. He stays sharp across five rounds and wears down more explosive, reckless fighters with relentless precision.

WEAKNESSES
– Low Aggressiveness: His calculated style means he can be too passive early on, giving more aggressive opponents the chance to steal rounds or overwhelm him before he finds his rhythm.

– Vulnerable to Explosive Strikers: Though hard to hit clean, his low KO resistance and modest dodging ability make him susceptible to powerful flurries if caught off-guard.

– Limited Ground-and-Pound Threat: While capable on the ground, he rarely capitalises with damaging strikes—missing opportunities to score or finish against less technical opponents.

BACKSTORY
Born and raised in Bangkok, Somsak is the son of a legendary Muay Thai fighter turned Kru Somchai Chen, who was undefeated in kickboxing until a tragic car accident destroyed his knee.

Somchai trained him and his twin sister Angun since they were 4, a few years later and they were already competing in the circuit with good results. Around that time Seven Wolfe, the son of an American diplomat, entered their lives. After Seven’s family disappearance, the young boy moved in with the Chens, and the three of them became inseparable.

The perfect idyllic ending ended when Angun and Seven began secretly dating. Perhaps out of jealousy, Somsak informed their father who asked them to end the relationship.

After their father passed, the twins took over his Muay Thai school and everything seemed to go well until Angun decided to try to pursue a career in wrestling and moved to the USA.

Somsak tried to keep the gym going, but his lack of social skills, made even worse by losing Angun and a series of circumstances left him with no choice but to sell it and move to Las Vegas to rejoin with his twin.
