Background
Chuang’s parents split when she was an infant, and she was raised by her grandparents. To avoid being talked out of boxing at school, she lied to her grandmother. She took up the sport to earn a university scholarship, which she achieved by attending the National Taiwan University of Sport. She turned professional after only her first year. She now trains at Iron Boxing under former K-1 fighter Wang Chung Yaun.
Kickboxing career
On August 2, 2014, Chuang competed at Shoot Boxing Girls S-Cup 2014. She lost her debut by unanimous decision to Christina Jurjevic. She returned to shootboxing in 2015, but once again dropped a unanimous decision to Mio Tsumura. 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. On October 6, 2018, she defended the title against Stamp Fairtex. She would go on to lose the belt by unanimous decision. 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.
