    I remember as a little kid being intrigued about this Asian fighter on the other side of the world who was called the "Thai Tyson." Obviously with no internet back then I coudln't find out much about the guy. As I got older I found out more about him but even still, I've only seen grainy footage of him. How good was he?

    Galaxy can from the school of hitting first and hardest to win. He was a rare power puncher in the lower weights. Galaxy wasn't very fast or technical. He fought like a heavyweight in the lower weight divisions. Critics say he never fought outside in North America or Europe, and his competition wasn’t first rate.

    There were 2 of them, the Galaxy twins.. Khaokor lost 2 out of 26.. and the finer Khaosai won 49 out of 50.. a sole loss... The twins were phoenomenal fighters and boxed roughly from 80 to 91.. They both held world titles and were very often on Tv in europe and the east..

    right about what?quality of opposition?i've heard this said before yet at championship level he met plenty of former world champs as well as FUTURE world champs so it was hardly weak.there are a few top fighters from the time thrown in as well,really good men like contreras,pical and kim.
