Rungkit Wor.Sanprapai (Thai: รุ่งกิจ ว.สังข์ประไพ; born January 20, 2002) is a Thai Muay Thai fighter.

Biography

Rungkit started training in Muay Thai at the age of 7 after seeing others kids training near his hometown of Ranong.[1] He quickly gained recognition and began fighting in the Bangkok stadiums at age 12.

In 2018, Rungkit had a high number of victories at Rajadamnern Stadium and was granted a title shot for the vacant 130 lbs belt, in which he won against Rodtang Jitmuangnon at only 16 years old. As a result of his remarkable victories during that year, Rungkit was the runner-up for the Sports Authority of Thailand Fighter of the year Award.[2]

In 2019, he took part in the Rise World Series kickboxing tournament.[3]

On March 10, 2019, he defeated Fred Cordeiro by unanimous decision in the First Round of the Rise World Series.

On July 21, 2019, Rungkit was eliminated by Shiro in the semi-finals after a very close fight which went to an extra round and saw Rungkit lose by split decision.[4]

Rungkit vacated his 130lbs Rajadamnern title shortly before his Rise World series semi final stating that he wouldn't be able to make that weight in a near future.
