by Boxing-Boy: According to MuaySiam Soccer Today Newspaper report, the president of Galaxy Boxing Promotion, Mr. Niwat Laosuwanwat, gave an interview to Thai reporters during the celebration dinner for his Legends of WBA award winner and WBA World Minumumweight titlist, Kwanthai Sithmorseng; aka K. Chor Na Pathalung for the evening of January 2 that he has big plans in 2011.

First, he is planning to set WBA world and WBA regional championships at least 18 fight in this year. Also he would like to bring the winner between Japan-based North Korean fighter Retsuri Lee; aka Ryol Li Lee, who is a currently WBA World Super Bantamweight titlist and his Japanese challenger, Akifumi Shimoda to defense the title with Thai former world belt holder, Poonsawat Krathingdaengym in our country.

His biggest planning for this year is offering Thailand to host the 90th WBA annual convention in November. Although Indonesia and China have offered to host this convention but he believes that Thailand will be a host selected.

If our country is a host the 90th WBA annual convention the meeting may be held at the Phuket Island or Chiang Mai Province. Mr. Niwat said he will set 3 world title bouts as a part of this convention. The main event is WBA Minimumweight unification fight between Thai World titlist, Kwanthai Sithmorseng, and Mexican Interim champion, Sammy Gutierrez. Other 2 bouts are the world title fights of formerly WBA World Flyweight king, Denkaosaen Kratingdaengym; aka D. Kaovichit and Poonsawat Krathingdaengym if he regains WBA World Super Bantamweight title. These fights are WBA World Super Flyweight title challenge of Denkaosaen and WBA World Super Bantamweight title defense of Poonsawat.

That would be the first time in our country that there are3 world championship fights in the same programme.
