Soth Veasna (Khmer: សូត្រ វាសនា), born in 2002 in Phnom Penh, is a Kun Khmer fighter affectionately known by his nicknames “The Golden Blade Spear” and “The Little Knight.”
From a young age, Veasna displayed a deep passion for martial arts, with roots in Kun Khmer running deep. Inspired by his brother, Soth Bunthy, who is also a prominent fighter and also serves as his trainer at their family-owned Baksey Slap Daek Gym, Veasna has steadily built a promising career, blending discipline and skill with a relentless fighting spirit.
As more opportunity in Kun Khmer continues to rise, Veasna has shown impressive growth, improving from fight to fight. On January 5, 2025, he delivered a standout performance against a veteran Thai opponent, earning thunderous cheers from the crowd. Over five thrilling rounds, Veasna showcased sharp techniques and resilience, even opening a cut on his opponent’s nose. His dominance secured a unanimous decision victory, crowning him the 12th Carabao Champion and earned him a big money prize.
With his talent, determination, and family support, Veasna is poised for even greater success in the years to come as long as he keeps the consistency.
