505 Games and Kung Fu Factory has announced today that world-renowned Muay Thai fighter Malaipet “The Diamond” Sasiprapa will be part of the upcoming, tough-as-nails title Supremacy MMA.
Malaipet spent his early childhood on his family’s rice farm until the tragic death of his mother when he was only 5. The family was devastated and his father left Malaipet and his siblings behind to seek better-paying work in Bangkok. Left to look after his sister and grandmother, Malaipet started fighting for money in order to pay for his sisters’ schooling. Recognizing that his son could further contribute to the family’s income, Malaipet’s father sent him to a Muay Thai training camp when Malaipet was only 6-years old.
When Malaipet reached adolescence, he was already a force to be reckoned with. After fighting more than 250 shin-splitting fights in Bangkok, he earned his first real win and captured the World Intercontinental Championship, launching him into international stardom.
Check out the trailer below to see a preview of Malaipet Sasiprapa in some Supremacy MMA action:
