Suriya Tatakhun, who boxes as Chonlatarn Piriyapinyo (nickname: klang (กลาง); born in Amnat Charoen District (presently: Amnat Charoen Province), Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand) is a Thai professional boxer who fights at featherweight.

Piriyapinyo is dubbed as Sai-nam morana in Thailand. The nickname denotes "Deadly Tide" or "Crimson Tide", because his name "Chonlatarn" in Thai language means "river" or "stream".[1]

He has challenged for the world championship for three times but lost each time.

He was the WBC Asian Boxing Council featherweight champion.[2]

Piriyapinyo turned professional in December 2003 at the Royal Square, Bangkok, Thailand. In his debut Piriyapinyo defeated Mwilambwe Banza on points over six rounds.[2]

On November 9, 2012, he challenged WBA world featherweight champion Chris "The Dragon" John at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, he lost a one-sided 12 round unanimous decision.[3]

On November 22, 2014, he faced WBO world featherweight champion Vasiliy Lomachenko at the Venetian in Macao. Piriyapinyo proved to be no match for the two-time Olympic gold medalist, as he lost a one-sided 12 round unanimous decision.

On July 16, 2016, he lost to Miguel Berchelt by TKO in the round 4 for WBO interim champion title in Super featherweight weight class at Polideportivo Soraya Jimenez, Los Reyes La Paz, México, Mexico.[4]
