Sagat is the undisputed king of the art of Muay Thai. Following his defeat at the hands of Ryu, in which his chest was scarred by a Shoryuken, he temporarily disappeared from the fighting scene.
He is the self-proclaimed 'Invincible Tiger'. The destructive force of his kicks are said to be rivaled by none. With the memory of his loss at the hands of Ryu etched into his chest, Sagat continues his training in pursuit of even greater power.
| Name | Sagat |
| Country | Thailand |
| Birthday | July 2 |
| Height | 7'5 |
| Weight | 171lbs (Capcom's math is probably off here) |
| Measurements | B130/W86/H95 |
| Blood Type | B |
| Favorite things | Strong opponents |
| Dislikes | Shoryuken, people who make excuses |
| Skills | Diving (over 20 minutes) |
| Fighting Style | Muay Thai |
Translation by Jigsaw.
Sagat, the Emperor of the Muay Thai boxing world, is the national hero of Thailand.
He has defeated many opponents who sought his title, including Dan Hibiki's father, but no fight has left as strong an impression as his first encounter with Ryu.
After a shocking defeat, Sagat was left with a wound that still burns through his chest to this day.
The pain and hatred that followed this loss lead Sagat to briefly join M. Bison's criminal organization.
He left after realizing Bison's devious plans and returned to Thailand to train his body and mind in hopes of a true rematch with Ryu.
Sagat's towering form is a large asset, granting him long-reaching attacks. His punishing kicks and knees are impressive to watch, but they should be avoided at all cost.

It's cool to see he's not a flunky of Bison any longer.

"Tiger uppercut"!!!

I agree with "Ein", sagat in my opinion is one of the MOST underrated Characters in the Street Fighter! But even though he worked for Bison i never considered him a flunky, he was just lost. no that he has left and returned to his old ways, i would be nice to see him get more credibility that we all know he deserves!!!!!!!!!

@ Ein
I like how now they are starting to make him a more noble character, he has just always had that air about him ... now it fits.

Sagat is just a... beast. He's sick!

Sagat is awesome.

Sagat snapped a bear's neck with a Tiger Uppercut in his SFIV prologue. That's awesome. TIGER DESTRUCTION!

sagat is amazing best street fighter character of all time

Sagat is top tier i dont think you could say hes underated.
Posted by triplehumbucker on July 22, 2009 at 4:54 a.m. #10
Sagat has always been my favorite. A freaking 7 foot tall master of muy thai? I don't think it gets any scarier than that. Just got the game yesterday and loving it!

Okay... 174 lbs? I'd believe it if it were kilograms
Posted by Ruisu on October 16, 2009 at 9:20 a.m. #12
Dislike's Shoryuken's lol man thats awesome.
Posted by Sagatto on October 16, 2009 at 10:07 a.m. #13
I could have sworn his weight is 324 lbs, according to the old manuals. Being 174 lbs, 7'4", and THAT BUFF does not make sense unless there's less gravity in the Street Fighter world. The 174 weight would make him look like like a pogo stick and would make his DEF twice as bad (if not more) as Seth. :P
Posted by WTF on October 16, 2009 at 10:12 a.m. #14
7'4" MORE LIKE 6'9" OR JUST 7' FEET TALL
Posted by Megatonbeef on October 16, 2009 at 11:23 a.m. #15
300 lbs minimum for his height and muscle mass. the only character id believe is uder 200 is sakura.
Posted by doja on October 16, 2009 at 1:05 p.m. #16
171 lbs!?!
HAHA. That would make him just 1-pound over as a Welterweight in MMA (although he'd be a Light-heavyweight aka Cruiserweight in Boxing).
Posted by hmong on October 16, 2009 at 1:14 p.m. #17
it would make sence in the sf universe that sagat would only wiegh 174. look how high all those guys can jump! little gravity equals u wiegh less.
Posted by ffff on October 16, 2009 at 2:26 p.m. #18
hahhaha his 7'4 and 174 what a skinny ashole. good job capcom
Posted by sagat on October 16, 2009 at 3:29 p.m. #19
"im very tall and extremly skinny." there is no way he weigh as much as i do. he is easily 250 at least
Posted by PSN Greylynx on October 16, 2009 at 4:03 p.m. #20
Bruce Lee was 5' 7.5" 135 lbs right before his death so I can imagine him being like 200 pounds
Posted by Mettleh3d on October 16, 2009 at 4:24 p.m. #21
Overpowered, imbalanced, and underweight
Posted by MegaMillzNY on October 16, 2009 at 6:26 p.m. #22

Posted by Mega Millz NY on October 16, 2009 at 6:27 p.m. #23
SEE EVEN I SPELLED ALL WRONG LOL MY BAD
Posted by Sagat on October 16, 2009 at 8:19 p.m. #24
LOL OBVIOUSLY ITS IN KILOGRAMS YOU MORONS
Posted by Megatonbeef on October 16, 2009 at 11:05 p.m. #25
Ya it's obviously a translation misshap U.S.A still doesn't use metric so it was translated to pounds when it should have been kilo's
Posted by Teinted on October 16, 2009 at 11:05 p.m. #26
@ above
lol that cracked me up
Posted by Oscar Wilde on October 17, 2009 at 12:44 a.m. #27
That's 174 kgs, NOT 174 lbs.
Posted by MK on October 18, 2009 at 2:27 a.m. #28
lol i got the collectors edition book for the new characters and if you read abels bio he's supposedly '160' pounds or something in that region... ridiculous
Posted by K-1 on October 18, 2009 at 3:52 p.m. #29
One of the few real world fighters of comparable size would be Semmy Schilt, who is 6'11.5" and weighs around 290lbs (131kg). Sagat is obviously not 171lbs, but it does suggest that Ryu and Ken are rather heavy if their weights are in kg as well!
Posted by Eddy023 on October 18, 2009 at 8:32 p.m. #30
7'4 and 171lbs. What a monster!!! It takes a lot of nervous to fight against him.
Posted by Justin Wong on October 20, 2009 at 3:54 a.m. #31
did you ever imagine da size of his penis? it must be very large for an asian... anyway..
Posted by Megatonbeef on October 22, 2009 at 12:10 a.m. #32
Perhaps Street fighter takes place on some crazy planet with less gravity giving the fighters better jumping power and having them weigh in lower than us humans.
Posted by Lane on October 29, 2009 at 6:06 p.m. #33
@Saggato
174 lbs is 174 lbs no matter what planet or universe you're in
Posted by Machineking1313 on November 9, 2009 at 9:46 a.m. #34
Sagat is 7'4 and weighs 310 lbs.

"(Capcom's math is probably off here)"
Not suprising when they made him the easiest character in the game.
I wouldn't consider him broken though, There HAS to be an "easiest character" It just so happens that in SF4 it's sagat.
It's worth looking into and training characters that have an inherent advantage against sagat purely because of the amount of people that will use him.

Damn I'm too late !!! greatest Sagat, Sagat the King I like beat him with Ryu.
Posted by yoyo on February 12, 2010 at 5:55 a.m. #37
SAGAT is the best in sf4....
I like his tiger uppercut very much
Posted by Sagat on March 1, 2010 at 3:54 p.m. #38
My awesomeness allows me to control my weight, my loyal fans!
Posted by incubus on March 12, 2010 at 5:50 p.m. #39
Only in SFII series Sagat should have 171 lbs, in early times he was awesome, but raquitical and with a annoying voice! Check the body difference between SFII and SF Alpha...
