Description:
With 7 ft 5 (226 cm), Sagat is the fourth-tallest character in the whole Street Fighter franchise, behind T. Hawk, Hugo, and Abigail. There is evidence to suggest that Sagat's height was the result of him suffering from Gigantism disorder.
Ever since Sagat's right eye was gouged out in his fight with Go Hibiki before the events of Street Fighter, it is covered by a black eye-patch. Another notable injury was inflicted by Ryu during their fated fight in Street Fighter; a massive diagonal scar across his chest. Oddly enough, the Street Fighter II V anime series depicts him with neither of these injuries.
As a former member of Shadaloo, Sagat has made a lot of enemies, including its members after he defected. Though, after his redemption, he has made friends as well.
Since a young age, Sagat had an affinity for fighting, but constant brawls on the streets as a child left his right eye with significant injuries that soon made it a weak point. Realizing that learning on the streets was not the way for him to learn fighting, he soon took up the martial art of Muay Thai to discipline himself and grow strong. As he grew up and picked himself back up from a struggle of defeats in his early career, his size eventually became his advantage, and by the age of 15, he was able to fight his way to the top as a worthy champion in the world of Muay Thai.
Sagat gained his title of "The Emperor of Muay Thai" after defeating Nuakan, a powerful fighter that was also considered an emperor of Muay Thai. Adon witnessed their battle and asked Sagat to take him as his student.
Sometime after this, Sagat was challenged by a nameless masked man who refused to give out his name upon confrontation, who was none other than Go Hibiki. Sagat attempted to fight on an even level, but Go noticed Sagat's weak right eye and proceeded to direct all attacks at it. When one of his attacks landed and gouged out Sagat's right eye, Sagat retaliated in anger with countering an oncoming clincher knee kick with a new attack that summoned a great power deep within him, and obliterated Go: the Tiger Shot.
