As a young man brought up in a very humble world in Thailand, Yaya (Mr. Suriyan Channam) started training in Muay Thai Boxing at the early age of 7 years old. He competed in his first Muay Thai competition and 8 years old and found his winning spirit at a young age. Inspired and guided by his father who was also a Muay Thai fighter, Yaya was inspired to train hard and found through his dedication was winning on a regular bases.
Growing up in a family of 12 siblings and being the youngest, Yaya lived in Krabi Thailand and developed his Muay Thai skills as a way to earn money through competitions to pay for his school and basic needs.
At the age of 15 Yaya moved to Bangkok to live with monks in a Buddhist Temple (Watt) to continue his young vocation as a successful Muay Thai fighter. From this environment and through years of vigorous training, Yaya continued to win and fight to be able to fund his education and basic needs.
With his Muay Thai skills and belief in achieving a good education, at the age 22 Yaya completed school in Bangkok and moved back to his original home in Krabi to spend 2 years studying marketing in college. Through the entire process Yaya never stopped training Muay Thai and competing to earn a living. At this time Yaya was competing in larger venues and stadiums.
