• Fight promoters announced the following day that 11,000 counterfeit tickets were sold for this fight and that the police had two men in custody. Lumpini Stadium was packed with 34,000 people, but only 23,000 legitimate tickets were sold. One of the promoters, Thong Thos (who was also Kingpetch's manager) stated that he had the tickets printed in Hong Kong but the forged ones were run off and sold in Bangkok. The proceeds of the card were destined for charity and the Thai armed forces.
