Petch CP Freshmart Looking to Improve to 48-0 on Friday

[Ruthless-RKO]

Petch CP Freshmart could be on course to secure the best record in boxing history. The 24 year old has an opportunity to move up to 48-0 and it is one you would expect him to take, against an inexperienced opponent with an uninspiring record.

Petch (47-0) is slated to face Saengchai Sithprayoon (3-6-1) at Rangsit Stadium on Friday afternoon (local time). The fight will be broadcast locally by Channel 7 and is set for a catchweight of 120lbs meaning the undefeated Thai fighter’s WBC Youth Bantamweight Title will not be on the line.

Also on that card undefeated Thai Singsayan CP Freshmart (15-0) is fighting Kong Kiatpracha (6-20-1) at a 117lbs catchweight. These fights are both scheduled for six rounds as is the 107lbs bout that pits Satanmuanglek CP Freshmart (8-0) against Indonesia’s Mektison Marganti (2-8-1).

There will be title fights on the card. Petchmanee Kokietgym (22-1) is defending his OPBF Silver Minimumweight Title for the first time against Stevanus Nana Bau (8-9-2). The Thai fighter’s sole defeat was inflicted by Chaozhong Xiong in China, a razor thin majority decision loss.

Ha. Another one looking to bump Mayweather's record. He's only 24.. He could become 100-0 at this rate by time he's 30.

He’s not a world champion, he’s not world-rated, nine of his opponents were making their pro debuts, one of them is “unknown” and doesn’t actually have a record, thirteen of his victories came against fighters that had never won a pro bout, and he also has one of the very worst resumes that I’ve ever seen from a fighter possessing so many wins.

[Oiky]

Easiest place in the world to get fights over them neck of the woods

Same in Muay Thai over there , if you can put on a pair of gloves then your able for the ring lol

[Ruthless-RKO]

At least he has more KO's than the other 1.

"Mayweather is goat, because record," -Mayweather fans for a zillion years
"That record is meaningless" - people now

That record always was meaningless. Now you know.

You might just want to check the bolded part...

Also we don't ACTUALLY know how many of his opponents really were debutants as the Thai record keeping is AWFUL. Recently we saw a correction to Sriskaet's record where he had an early career opponent changed....Nawaphon Por Chokchai, after having been someone else for years. A good chance that a number of debutants weren't debutants (but probably were limited, novices with poor records all the same)

What you’re essentially saying is this… nobody knows who this guy fought and you also admit to not knowing whether he’s world-rated or not (as per my words you highlighted in bold)?

He’s not rated by The RING, ESPN or BoxRec and I feel the rest of my thoughts on this guy are fairly accurate based on what little has been documented about him.

I suspect you haven’t seen this guy fight and (like me) you know absolutely nothing about him. And if this truly is the case, then why have you bothered to challenge the content of my post, since it seems very accurate?

It’s not as if I haven’t performed any due diligence to gather the relevant facts prior to submitting uy post, is it?

[jamamb]

i had heard he was supposed to fight nordine oubali for the vacant wbc 118 title but seemed that didnt happen.

im thinking oubali wouldve beat him

You've not seen him? Well there's A LOT of footage of him out there, plenty of his fights here http://www.asianboxing.info/videos/cate ... hitpattana

He's ranked #2 with the WBC, he was supposed to fight for the WBC Bantamweight title earlier this year, before the bout got got cancelled for financial or TV reasons. in France He's actually the mandatory for the winner of the Nordine Oubaali Vs Rau'shee Warren fight (which is expected to take place in October). I knew who he was, but thought it would be a better idea for you to fact check, rather than have me point out who he is.

He will, actually fight for the WBC title before Takuma Inoue gets a shot, despite Inoue beating Mark John Yap in a recent world title eliminator.

He's nothing spectacular, a basic southpaw, who often looks bigger than his opponents (growing frame and Thai's are notorious weight cutters). But he IS world ranked, and he HAS fought on A LOT of televised cards, his fights are EASILY available, and his skills are there to be criticised.

The sports governing bodies often rate title challengers that no one has ever heard of, whilst also possessing disgraceful resumes. It doesn't mean they're talented.

I've always loved how they take on the name of their gym.
It's made me want to open a gym in Thailand, I think I will call it Knobgobbler.

No one said he was talented, you stated he wasn't world ranked. When he is. You're now saying no ones heard of him, as if fans who actually follow the lower haven't heard of him when they have, because they follow these divisions.

There's at least 2 people in this thread who knew he was supposed to be fighting for a WBC title against Oubaali.

Not every fight fan sticks to what American and British TV gives us. Some of us do follow the Asian scene, and the lower weight scene. Some of us watched Tassana /Petch struggle past a then unheralded Jeson Umbal, or Jestoni Autida.

There are a number of people who were aware of him just because of his long unbeaten streak at such a young age.

We're going to see this type of thing a lot from the Thai's going forward, just like when Noknoi went on an insane 61-0 run before facing Ioka, and whilst limited the guy proved to be tough as hell.

It does look like Workpoint are using some quality control on their shows, but the other Thai channels have essentially got time buys with promoters. The shows are as much an advertisement of the sponsors as they are competitive bouts. That's how the fighters get paid. It's why we see guys like Wanheng fighting stay busy fights.

[squiggy]

I don't think stay-busy fights are necessarily worse than having to watch all our top fighters spend ten, twelve months or more negotiating and training and doing PR tours in between all their fights.

Do you know how I can watch these and rungvisai's fights live online?

Both Thairath and Workpoint have live YouTube channels that show their fights (which will include Srisaket's fight on Saturday via Thairath) Malimar offer a paid service which includes Channel 7, which show a lot of Thai fights, almost weekly or bi weekly. Wanheng has had his last few fights on the Menayothin Facebook page too
