Biography & career

Panom Pachano was born on September 15, 1967 in Nang Rong, Buriram, Thailand. His father began training him, along with his brothers, in Muay Thai from an early age. He would start his career fighting in the northeastern regions of Thailand. In 1981, he was scouted by Savek Pinsinchai and began to fight under the name of Saencherng Pinsinchai for the Pinsinchai gym.

Saencherng would solidify himself as one of the most dominant fighters of the 80s while capturing four Lumpinee Stadium titles at Mini Flyweight, Flyweight, Super Bantamweight, and Super Featherweight and a Rajadamnern Stadium title at Bantamweight between 1983 and 1989. He'd beat some of the most notable fighters of his era such as Chamuekpet Hapalang, Samransak Muangsurin, Jaroenthong Kiatbanchong, Paruhatlek Sitchunthong, Chanchai Sor Tamarangsri, Manasak Sor Ploenchit and Bangkhlanoi Sor.Thanikul. The largest purse of his career was 250,000 baht, making him one of the few fighters who were paid above the 200,000 baht threshold.

After his retirement, Saencherng became a trainer at Pinsinchai gym in Bangkok.
