Everything that fans see in Anna ‘Supergirl’ Jaroonsak is a product of her admiration for her older sister, Nat ‘Wondergirl’ Jaroonsak, as the 19-year-old Muay Thai and kickboxing phenom credits the strawweight contender for being her role model.
The two Jaroonsak Muay Thai representatives have been by each other’s sides since they fell in love with the art of eight limbs when they were just kids. Supergirl gave Wondergirl her flowers as she now builds her own name in the world’s largest martial arts organization.
In her most recent interview with ONE Championship, Supergirl talked about how Wondergirl made a huge impact on her professional career, as she stated:
“Wondergirl plays a big part. I watched her train, I watched her fight, and I wanted to do it too. As I did my workout, I’d watch her. I learned so much from her and she has a huge influence on me.”
