Songkram Porpaoin (Thai: สงคราม ป.เปาอินทร์; born 25 March 1966) is a retired professional Minimumweight boxer and Muay Thai fighter from Thailand.

Biography and career

Songkram, whose real name is Manatsanun Motma (มนัสนันท์ หมดมา; formerly Kam Motma; ค้ำ หมดมา; personal nickname: Tho; โท), was born in Lom Sak district, Phetchabun province.

Before turning professional in boxing, he practiced Muay Thai in the northern region of his native area under the name Kongla Sakchainarong (ก้องหล้า ศักดิ์ชัยณรงค์), while his brother Chana used the name Lomnuea Sakchainarong (ลมเหนือ ศักดิ์ชัยณรงค์). Songkram was a five time Rajadamnern Stadium 105 lbs champion.

When his twin brother Chana Porpaoin won the world championship, their manager, Niwat "Chae-mae" Laosuwanwat of Galaxy Boxing Promotion, hoped Songkram would become the second twin world champion after the Galaxy brothers Khaosai and Khaokor Galaxy in the 1980s. The twins' professional ring names, "Chana and Songkram", meaning "winning the war," came from their supporter Prachuap Pao-in, who at that time was an investigative inspector at the Chana Songkram Metropolitan Police Station located in the Bang Lamphu near Khaosan road.

After Chana lost the world title to Rosendo Álvarez, a boxer from Nicaragua, at the end of 1995, Songkram was supported to challenge Álvarez on January 11, 1997, in Sa Kaeo province but was TKOed in the 11th round. However, later that year, he won the PABA Minimumweight title by defeating his old rival, Randy Mangubat, a Filipino boxer with whom he had previously drawn, winning by points. He defended the title once.

Prior to that, in 1995, he was contacted as a challenger for the WBC and IBF Light Flyweight world titles held by Humberto González, a Mexican boxer, but his manager Niwat Laosuwanwat declined because Niwat was known for cooperating only with the WBA. Consequently, González’s challenger became Saman Sorjaturong.

On January 30, 1999, he challenged for the WBA Minimumweight interim title against Ronnie "Toy Bulldog" Magramo, a Filipino contender, in Pattaya. Although he was knocked down in the third round, he won by a close majority technical decision (75–75, 78–73, 76–74) in the eighth round after his head was bleeding from a headbutt and he could not continue fighting.[1]

However, four months later, he traveled to Japan to fight Hiroshi Matsumoto, a Japanese boxer. The match ended with a WBA disallowed decision, and Songkram was eventually stripped of the title.[2]

After retirement, Songkram's life became very difficult, and his wife separated from him. He has been ordained twice. Today, he makes a living by teaching full-time at POM Gym in Bangkok, Thailand.[2]
