He fought with many famous fighters, such as Bangkhlanoi Sor.Thanikul, Samransak Muangsurin, Chamuakpetch Hapalang, Wangchannoi Sor Palangchai or Petdam Lookborai. His maximum remuneration was 120,000 baht in fight against Samingnoom Sithiboonthum at Rajadamnern Stadium. He won five different weight championships of the Lumpinee Stadium during 1978–84.[2]
Professional boxing career

He made a total of nine wins before challenge Gilberto Román, WBC Super flyweight holder on December 19, 1986, at Indoor Stadium Huamark in the event organized by Gen Sunthorn Kongsompong.[3] He was unanimously defeated with a very traumatized face.[4][2]
He continued to fight three more times until he was ranked #1 of WBA Junior bantamweight. On January 26, 1988, he challenge with fellow Thai Khaosai Galaxy, a title holder at Lumpinee Stadium.[2] In fact, he was well acquainted with Galaxy, because he was a sparring partner before. Galaxy had previously trained at Yodtong Senanan's gym in Nong Prue, Chonburi, to challenge Dominican Eusebio Espinal for the vacant world championship in 1984.
In the battle, Payakaroon wore blue trunks with gold stripe and gold boots, used hit-and-run tactics through 12 round and although he was able knock down Galaxy in the fifth round. After the bout, he shouted confidently that he would definitely win including his fans and his manager too. But when the results are announced he was defeated. His manager, Songchai Rattanasuban churned out anger and shouted this fight were cheated. This event was widely criticized and discussed.[5][6] Many compare the fight between these two boxers to Oscar De La Hoya vs. Félix Trinidad in 1999.
