Rangsan Chayanram: Palangpol CP Freshmart’s Boxing Career
Thai fighter Rangsan Chayanram competed in Muay Thai and professional boxing, using the ring name Palangpol CP Freshmart. The World Boxing Association profile lists him as Rangsan Chayanram, alias Palangpol Chuwatana, and records his professional bouts.
Chayanram’s boxing record includes wins over Jack Amisa and Heri Amol in 2014, followed by several more bouts listed on the WBA profile. The video above shows his September 2017 challenge against Japan’s Kosei Tanaka for the WBO junior-flyweight title.
Tanaka came off the canvas after an early knockdown and stopped Chayanram in round nine to retain his title. Fightnews.com’s report documents the result. The WBA profile also lists the ninth-round technical knockout at Osaka’s EDION Arena.
Building a boxing record in Thailand
His 2014 schedule included two different kinds of win over Heri Amol: an eighth-round stoppage in April and a twelve-round unanimous decision in November. Between those contests, he knocked out Joan Imperial in the sixth round and completed twelve rounds against Tommy Seran.
That combination of finishes and distance fights gave Chayanram experience beyond short contests. In 2015, the WBA record lists an eight-round majority decision over Donny Mabao and a fourth-round knockout of Bimbo Nacionales. He later defeated Samuel Tehuayo over six rounds in July 2017, shortly before traveling to Japan for the Tanaka challenge.
A test against an undefeated champion
The Tanaka bout was a step from that regional schedule into a twelve-round world championship contest. Chayanram’s early knockdown made the opening round significant, but Tanaka recovered and secured the ninth-round stoppage.
The result should be read alongside the route that preceded it. Chayanram had built a series of professional boxing appearances in Thailand before challenging a Japanese titleholder abroad. His Muay Thai background and boxing career form separate parts of his combat-sports experience, while the Tanaka fight remains the central world-title opportunity documented here.
