Tun Min Naing is the eighth child of U Khaing Shwe and Daw Than Aye. He is a Muslim and the cousin of Tun Tun Min, Tun Min Latt and Tun Min Aung.[4]
He started his Lethwei career at the age of 13. He won the 2016 Regions and States tournament in the 51 kg class, exceeding his own expectations. His sole loss came at the hands of Tha Pyay Aung, at the 2017 Golden Belt Championship.[5] Though hailed as a young and powerful fighter, he was knocked out in round two by the eventual champion in their weight-class.[6] Tun Min Naing rates his fight Ye Thway Ni in Mandalay among one of his most memorable matches. For about a year from 2017 to 2018, he fought in Thailand to study Muay Thai to improve his technique and to gain experience. He returned to competition in 2022 after a lay-off due to COVID-19 restrictions, a case of pneumonia and the after effects of the coup.[4]
ONE Championship
In February 2023, Tun Min Naing announced he had signed with ONE Championship. His first fight was against Chaongoh Jitmuangnon, who was riding a 19-fight win streak.[7][8] He won the fight by technical knockout in the second round and was awarded a 350,000 Thai baht Performance of the Night bonus afterwards.[9][10] In his emotional post-fight interview, he revealed that he would use the money to help his ailing father get treatment.[11][12]
He became known as Mr. Roti, since he was selling the popular street food in between training.[13] He was also interviewed by Myanmar Celebrity and addressed some criticism regarding his costume and religion and said he didn't carry the Myanmar flag because he didn't feel confident yet.[14][15] He is determined to become a champion in ONE Championship.[16]
