I guess most people saw Tawanchai as the P4P top fighter in muay thai last year since he had a pretty amazing record that year. But... before his recent winning streak his accomplishments at lighter weight classes were just good, not outstanding.
In my personal opinion being consistently sucessful in several weight classes is huge.
Panpayak has one of the best resumés for sure, but his 3 recent KO losses and losses against Muangthai and Yodlekpet makes me doubt his abilities at over 130 lbs.
Sangmanee is a pretty strong candidate. He has fought pretty much everyone and even though he had a losing streak, is 0-3 against Thaksinlek, 0-3 against Yodlekpet he has been succesful at pretty much every weight class.
What do you guys think?
Feel free to have your own criteria of who belongs to the current generation and what makes someone the best fighter... I prefered not to include Saenchai, Singdam, Nong-O and Yodwicha since i feel in the competitive muay thai scene they're from the past but feel free to name any fighter you want.
