Biography and career
[edit]Preecha Phromprasit was born on June 5, 1963 in Lopburi, Thailand but grew up in the province of Chanthaburi. He fought for the first time when he was about 13 years old at a local temple fair, earning 50 baht.[3]
He had about 45 fights in various provinces before reaching the prestigious national stadiums, such as the Rajadamnern and Lumpinee Boxing Stadiums.
During the heyday of his career, he fought against many top Muay Thai fighters, such as Kongtoranee Payakaroon, Samransak Muangsurin, Chanchai Sor.Tamarangsri, Orono Por.MuangUbon, Jaroenthong Kiatbanchong, Namphon Nongkeepahuyuth, Namkabuan Nongkeepahuyuth, Panomtuanlek Hapalang, Cherry Sor.Wanich, Jomwo Chernyim, Superlek Sorn E-Sarn, Chandet Sor.Prantalay, Wangchannoi Sor.Palangchai, Sangtiennoi Sor.Rungroj, and Jongsanan Fairtex. His highest purse reached 200,000 baht in his fight with Kongtoranee Payakaroon.
He was given the nickname "Lord Cannibal Knees" after five of his opponents were kicked off the ring by the referee while fighting him.[1]
His last fight took place in 1993. After retirement, he opened a Muay Thai gym in his native Chanthaburi. He had two children. Petchdam is currently working as a merchant selling steamed buns in Rayong's Samyan market, without being involved in Muay Thai at all.[4][1]
