    Knocks him out in the 9th round according to boxrec in thailand today. He claims the WBA World minimumweight title held by his opponent who was unbeaten at the time in 31 bouts. Kwanthai is ten years younger than Rachman. For Rachman this is his second time as a world champion previous holding the IBF minimumweight title before losing it to Phillipino, Florante Condes in July 2007.

    These upsets just never stop coming. Is anyone safe out there? I guess not.

    would be great if it continues next month:

    Shane KTFO Manny
    Arce KTFO Vazquez jr

    and then hopefully Arum has a heart attack.

    wow, that is great! At the age of 39 and Ko'ed a 10 years younger fighter who had an unbeaten record? Finally Indonesia got 2 world champions.

    Good for Rachman, who proves that longevity isn't limited to the higher weight divisions. 2011 is turning out to be one of the best years to be a long shot in a VERY long time.
