    Koki Kameda is probably what he will be remembered for the most... though the fight with Malcolm Tunaco was great :)

    Has not fought Rungvisai. Kameda was a good win as with most Thai fighters a lot of padding on the record.

    With Menayothin retiring who can be considered the greatest Thai boxer of all time?

    Not Moonsri. I doubt he'd be top 10, actually.

    Kingpetch, Sahaprom, Bustop, Chartchai, the Galaxy's and Chitalada are the front runners. Then after that there's Wonjongkam, Saensak, Samart, Sasakul ect; before you come close to Wang. I'd also say Rungvisai is higher up too.

    Khaosai Galaxy is as good as undefeated as his only loss came early in his career.

    Yeah in a way. I think Khaokar was better though.

    Sirimongkhon Iamthuam This guy's career always fascinated me he had some reasonable wins on the road, started at bantam and ended up fighting at light heavy (he's 5'6). He was in prison for 4 years but the Thai authorities still let him box professionally. Ended with 101 fights (97-4-0). Certainly not the best but an enigma of sorts.

    Singwacha is awesome. His fight with Tatsuyoshi is a classic that everyone should see. Nuts that he's a LHW these days.

    Great watch, thanks. I was amazed how he recovered on his feet in the 5th from that bodyshot.

    Did either of yous two have Wonjongkam vs Kameda wide for Pong?

    I had it 117-111 based on Pong's cleaner shots, and there was more of them. Koki fought pretty negatively (not that I blame him) after the cut, up until the last two which I thought could've gone either way.

    I assume there was a small degree of hometown bias involved in why it was such a close decision. Or maybe I can't score like I think I can, which is it?
