The headline on MuaySiam daily newspaper on 2 July 2011 might call for reasonably attention. Each move of a promoter like Songchai always becomes news.
No matter what, if it is “Big Song or Songchai”, it will receive attention. In boxing society, Songchai is like a big tree standing against rain and storm for a long time. Some people want to cut it down while many birds make their nests on it.
He is beloved and hated. More than 30 years in promoter life starting from nothing until now, Songchai possesses plenty of properties. One can say he obtain them from boxing. However, he has been through many obstructions before this day. Sometimes he even risked his life. So, Songchai experienced everything both fighting and thinking, hot and cold, to the peak of promoter life. Although he declines lately, he is still standing at the frontline of boxing society.
About his move from Lumpinee to Rajdamnern stage many years ago, nothing went on as he thought and expected. When tiger confronts lion – they knew each other’s secrets – it appeared that Ragdamnern stage executive has been quarreled with Songchai all the time. Songchai seemed to resign for many times but he is still there until now.
The executives of Rajdamnern stage is the same as before under the lead of Chaleomphong Cheawsakul. However, many of them were replaced according to government system. One thing that was implanted in the mind of old and new military officers working with Lumpinee boxing stage is that “negative image of Songchai”.
Together with prosecution against Lumpinee stage, Songchai has no way to return home even if many has rumored about this.
It seems to be planned, particularly when stage manager quarrels with Songchai. Finally, it has been failed.
Recently, Songchai proposed Lumpinee boxing stage that he would return as a promoter when “Big Berm”, major general Surakrai Jatumas is a stage manager. This stage manager has been associated with boxing society for a long time. He knows everything well. He seems flexible.
Therefore, boxers from One-Songchai are able to fight on Lumpinee stage although it has been blocked all the time. By the way, the news that Songchai proposed Lumpinee stage to return as a promoter, if that was true, in another perspective it can be discredit because the trend of boxing live broadcast is high between Saturday afternoon program and Songchai’s live broadcast that is blocking Lumpinee stage.
