Rin Saroth (Khmer: រិន សារ័ត្ន), born in 1995 in Prey Veng Province, is a Kun Khmer fighter with humble beginnings nicknamed the “Eagle King”.
Kun Khmer Career
Born to farmer parents, Saroth left school at a young age to pursue Kun Khmer training, aiming to contribute to his family’s finances with his earnings from the sport. Saroth’s talent and dedication propelled him to become a notable figure in the sport.
Transition to Mixed Martial Arts
In 2013, seeking a new challenge, Saroth made his cage debut in mixed martial arts (MMA), leveraging his elite striking background to secure a victory by TKO. He fell in love with competing in the cage and rapidly made three more appearances over the following year.
Saroth made his ONE Championship debut in December 2015, winning by armbar submission and showcasing his evolving skill set. Since then, he has continued to sharpen his skills, training daily with elite Cambodian martial artists, including Meas Meul, Thai Rithy, and Sim Bunsrun, all of whom have found success on the global stage of ONE Championship.

CAUTION: The fight records of Kun Khmer Fighters have been inconsistent across TV stations. Therefore, instead of relying on the records displayed by individual broadcasters, I maintain an independent tally. I add one to the total after each new fight to ensure consistency. |
