Biography

Baison (nicknamed: cream) was born in the boxer family. As a child, she was debilitated from asthma and allergy illnesses, for this reason, she turned to boxing starting with Muay Thai with father as a trainer. When she was 10, she began to be a female amateur Muay Thai boxer patrolling various tournaments in the region. With versatility beyond age, therefore she was given the opportunity to compete in " Thai Fight".

Later, she was persuaded to switch to amateur boxing from Somchai Poonsawat a technical director of Thailand Boxing Association, who has followed her in many bouts. The 2020 Summer Olympics was her first major tournament. [3]
