[edit] Biography and career

Singwangcha defeated Jose Luis Bueno on August 10, 1996 for the WBC bantamweight title. He defended the title three times before suffering his first loss—a seventh round TKO by Joichiro Tatsuyoshi.

Singwangcha then put together another impressive winning streak and won the vacant WBC super featherweight title when he defeated Kengo Nagashima on August 24, 2002 by knockout in round 2. He held the title for one year before he lost to Jesús Chávez.
