Phenphet Started to fight MuayThai att the age of 7 and at the time got the price money of 100Baht for his first fight. The villege Thung song in the sothern province of Nakorn si tamart was the place were Phenphet fought his first fight, his first ring name was Nakorn chai Sor kittishai. At the age of 7 he never thought of being a professional fighter but it was his father Mr Lweng that encouraged his son to get in the ring after himself being a fighter but never being able to reach the great stadiums in Bangkok.

After Phenphet had fought his first fight he kept fighting continuously over all the Sothern provinces like: Hat yai, song kla, kho samui, krabi, suratani, trang.

Back at the days when phen was still fighting in Thailand

Everywere there was a ring and a MuayThai show Mr Laweng took his son together with wife and big sister and new born young brother on the pickup. At the age of 8 Mr Laweng started to see the chances of his son making it to the big stadiums and with his high hopes he took his son to the gym that was located about a km from home. It was the gym of Sor kittichai and it became young phenphets new home. As he was living at the gym he continued with his studying at the same time.

Phenphet kept fighting 2 up to 4 times a month until he reached the age of 11 when he moved to live in a temple with the monks in the province of Ranong about 300km North to Nakonsitamarat. It was Phenphets mother Ms. It was Phenphets mother Fhon that wanted her son to be educated in the temple with the monks. Phenphet studied at the Temple of Wat Bonamrong for 3 years until he decided to go and stay with his uncle in Hat yai. Then at Hat yai one of the most Sothern provinces on the Thai map he started to train at the gym Muang Hat yai. Phenphet trained for about 1 month in his new gym before entering the ring once again this time under the name Nakorn chai Muang Hat yai. Phenphet stayed With his uncle and trained for Muang Hat yat fot about 7 months and managed step into the ring 11 times and was able to win 9 fights that made the owners happy because every fight they gambled on there upcoming youngster.

After have being sleeping eating and training in Muay Hat yai for 7 months Mr Lweng made a phone call telling his son to come back home. It was time to start aiming on the bigger stadiums in Bangkok and from the age of 15 the young Thai fighter from the small village of Tung Song became a regular in Rajadamnern stadium. At the age of 17 phenphet entered Gewsamrit MuayThai gym for the first time after having decided to leave his home town for Bangkok.

In all his career phen doesn’t know how many fights exactly he had, I assume probably more the 150 fights. What phen does remember is that 18 of this fights took place in Bangkok 17 at Rajadamnern and 1 at Lumpinee. Managing to win 15 of his 18 fights in the Bangkoks stadiums is an outstanding record for any fighter.
