YODSANAN 3K BATTERY (Yodsanan Sor Nanthachai) JLW

Hometown - Srisaket, Thailand

43(35)-2-1 (through 2004)


Southpaw with tremendous power that does most of his damage with combinations set up by his jab. His only two defeats came early in his career while he was learning the game, unlike most Thai fighters, he had no amature or kick boxing experience. Won the PABA Jr Lightweight belt with a twelve round decision over Sukhbayar Nemekbayer and defended the title 19 times. In 2002, he beat Lakva Sim to claim the then vacant WBA Jr Lightweight belt and has since defended it three times with stoppage victories over Lamont Pearson (19-1-1) and Ryuhei Sugita (25-1-2) and a decision over Steve Forbes (24-2-0). His next scheduled defence is against Vincente Mosquera (20-1-1) in May, 2005 at the MGM Grand.
