Summary
| Description |
English: Lumpinee Boxing Stadium was originally located on Rama IV road, Pathumwan district, adjacent to the former Armed Forces Academies Preparatory School. The stadium was as high standard boxing arena as Rajadamnern Stadium. It was founded by then Maj.Gen.Praphas Charusathien, the commander of The 1st Division, The King's Guard, and named “Lumpinee” after a nearby landmark ‘Lumpinee Park’. The stadium hosted its first official fight on 15thMarch, 1956, and the grand opening ceremony was held on 8th December of the same year. Many Thai and international boxing matches took place here, one of those was the first world boxing champion of “Pone Kingpetch” vsPascualParez on Saturday evening 16th April, 1960
As the former stadium became too crowded, the new one was constructed in a much larger area within the Royal Thai Army Sports Centre, on Ram Indra road, Bangkaen district. The new stadium holds boxing bouts on Tuesdays and Fridays, from 18:00 to 22:00, and on Saturdays from 17:00 to 00:30, closed on religious days. |
