Thailand’s newcomer pugilists Kaeo Pongprayoon and Chatchai Butdee have defeated their respective opponents at the AIBA World Championships in Milan, Italy, on Saturday, cruising to the round of 16 along with two other Thai veterans.

WBA “interim” bantamweight title holder Poonsawat Kratingdaenggym will fight the ordinary title holder Bernard Dunne in Dublin, Ireland, on September 26.

Poonsawat, the latest Thai boxer bidding for a world title, is currently in a training program at the Galaxy gym in Nakorn Pathom in central Thailand in preparation for the WBA title match at the end of this month. So far, he seems to be confident and does not consider the Irish title holder as a strong opponent, and said he and Dunne would have about equal chance of winning.

“I have studied the video records of Dunne’s earlier bouts. I think he is a fast striker, but is not as strong as Ukraine’s Wladimir Sidorenko, the only boxer who was able to beat me,” he said.

 Chucharoen Rawee-aramwong        Songchai Ratanasuban 

 

Muaythai promoters Chucharoen Rawee-aramwong and Songchai Ratanasuban are reportedly still having a dispute over the revenue sharing from the Lumpini-Ratchadamnern cross-stadium event in Bangkok on August 6.

Chucharoen reportedly demanded that the Ratchadamnern’s chief promoter Songchai pay him 140,000 Baht for the August 6 match of his fighter Chomthong Chuwattana, who lost to Nong O Sit O. However, he received from Songchai a check of 100,000 Baht, which the promoter rejected and had it returned to the sender.

On the next day, Chucharoen reportedly received a “thank you” note from Songchai. In retaliation, the upset Chucharoen traveled to the Sit O gym in Buriram in an attempt to recruit three top fighters, Kaimukdam Sit O, Kaimukkao Sit O, and Palangpon Piriyanoppachai to his camp.
