Samson 3K Battery - Samson Dutch Boy Gym

There are 2 ratings in the official database for this fighter..one for each name.

Personally I think the 3k Battery rating is more accurate, as this fighter never lost, and defended his title an amazing 38 times! My question is why the 2 ratings for the same fighter in the same weight class? INFquiring minds wanna know...lol

I'm not sure what TBCB currently has for Samson official rating - But I can upload / share mine. I have over 20 of his fights on tape - He was a very good fighter, more of a boxer than a pure slugger (as most Thai's are).

He was more out of the Porporian brothers mold than out of the Galaxy mold for example...

Here is what I have -

There are 2 official DB ratings, one's a 13 and the other's a 10. And to tell you the truth, I didn't know they were the same person until I was reading on boxrec.com...lol

I'll take a look at your rating. With your knowledge of the little guys, I'm sure it'll be accurate!

I was checking out the WBF web site, and noticed THEY don't even have pictures of Samson...lol

So I had the audacity to send an email to the President of that organization to see if they might have a picture...lol

Samson is not a "13" by a long shot - He was a boxer-puncher.....fought very solid competition midway through his career then went on a streak of fighting sub-par guys and decided to retire without ever going for a major title shot......Definitely a skilled and tough guy....but not near a 13 overall rating...

I agree, though I'm leaning towards the 10 rating that's also in the database.
