Background

Chuang’s parents divorced when she was just a baby, and her grandparents adopted her. When she began boxing in school, she lied to her grandmother so as not to be persuaded out of the sport.[5][6]

Chuang began to box in the hopes of landing a university scholarship. As she excelled as a boxer, she completed her objective and attended the National Taiwan University of Sport. After just her freshman year, Chuang turned pro.

Now she trains out of Iron Boxing under the tutelage of former K-1 competitor Wang Chung Yaun.

Kickboxing career

On August 2, 2014, Chuang competed at Shoot Boxing Girls S-Cup 2014. She would lose her debut by unanimous decision to Christina Jurjevic. She would return to shootboxing in 2015, but once again dropped a unanimous decision to Mio Tsumura.[4]

After the setbacks in shootboxing, Chuang went back to her roots in kickboxing and Muay Thai where she found much greater success.

Chuang became a three-time WAKO kickboxing champion while compiling a record of 16–5.

Due to her success, Chuang was brought into ONE Championship to battle Thailand’s Yodcherry Sityodtong for the inaugural ONE Super Series Kickboxing Atomweight Championship. On July 7, 2018, Chuang defeated Yodcherry by unanimous decision to become a world champion.[7]

On October 6, 2018, she defended the title against Stamp Fairtex. She would go on to lose the belt by unanimous decision.[8]

On July 12, 2019, Chuang suffered her second consecutive defeat when she dropped a majority decision to Janet Todd at ONE Championship: Masters of Destiny.[9]
