Early life

Soe Lin Oo is born in the Inn Shey village of the Thaton District, Mon State and is a member of the Karen ethnic group.

Lethwei career

Soe Lin Oo has often been called by the nicknames Man of Steel and Ironman due to his incredible pain threshold, which is a crucial aspect among today's Lethwei fighters.[1]

He won the Lethwei Golden Belt 60 kg World Championship in 2010 and 2011.

On June 10, 2017, Soe Lin Oo made his debut on World Lethwei Championship at WLC 2: Ancient Warriors, where he faced Artur Saladiak. He suffered his first career loss by dropping the unanimous decision to Saladiak.[2]

On November 4, 2017, he made his second WLC appearance at WLC 3: Legendary Champions knocking out Ugandan Muay Thai fighter Umar Semata in the second round.

On September 29, 2018, Soe Lin Oo made his third appearance on WLC at WLC 6: Heartless Tigers where he knocked out Zhao Wen Wen of China.[3]

On December 29, 2019, in a very anticipated match-up, Soe Lin Oo faced former WMC, YOKKAO, Lumpinee Stadium and Rajadamnern Stadium World Champion, Pakorn P.K. Saenchai Muaythaigym under Lethwei rules in Hpa-an, Karen state, Myanmar.[4] Pakorn was extremely cautious in the clinch to avoid Soe Lin Oo’s headbutts. In Round 4, while in the clinch, Soe Lin Oo floored Pakorn with a headbutt knockout and the Thai was not able to continue.[5]
