Jimmie “2 Shoes” Phusomsai is a living paradox.

A ferocious, undefeated welterweight (9-0, 7 KOs), he forged a reputation as a lethal knockout artist under the tutelage of Fortitude Boxing's Stephen Deller and legend Chatchai Sasikul. Yet, beyond the ropes, he is a fiercely dedicated community anchor—empowering First Nations youth and guiding disadvantaged locals through the innovative 'Boxing Baristas' program and head coach of the Fortitude Masters Boxing.

In October 2025, the fists that battered opponents were pressed in quiet prayer. Seeking profound spiritual discipline, Jimmie entered a remote jungle monastery in Thailand to ordain as a monk. There, under an abbot who uniquely understood the sweet science, he mastered the ultimate fighter's weapons: breath, absolute focus, and unwavering calm.

Now, he has returned. Stepping back into the ring, Jimmie 2 Shoes is no mere brawler. He is a deadly martial artist armed with a coach’s heart, devastating physical power, and a monk’s unshakeable soul.
