Who was the opponent?
On Sept. 18, 1972 in Bangkok Boxrec shows Thai bantamweight Thanomjit Sukohthai knocking out Juan Medina in 5. This is incorrect. Juan 'Cachorro' Medina of Mexico was a full-fledged lightweight and would be engaging Roberto Duran the following year in a 10 round non-title. My old 1975 RRB shows Sukhothai beating one 'Hun Madina' on that date. I cannot find that fighter anywhere and RRB does tend to get sloppy with names so I'm not sure who he fought, but it wasn't a lightweight from Mexico. Can this be corrected?

I have no idea who it was, but I agree that it's highly unlikely that it was Juan Medina.
