fighters of all time. Here is an oportunity to see him up close.

Nonito Donaire, the interim WBA Super Flyweight champion, is preparing for his title defense against Gerson Guerrero of Mexico City on Top Rank’s Latin Fury 13/Pinoy Power 3 event at the Las Vegas Hilton on Feb. 13. Donaire, managed by Cameron Dunkin, has a record of 22-1, 14 KOs. He was born in General Santos, Philippines and now lives in San Leandro, Calif. He is training at the Undisputed Gym (883 East San Carlos Avenue, San Carlos, Calif., 94070) and fight fans are invited to attend a Media workout this Saturday beginning at 1PM PT.

It might be a little high, but Ring Magazine has Donaire ranked #6 P4P.

I think 6 is a bit high, I would probably put him somewhere around 15ish... I would definitely move him up if he had a few more notable opponents under his belt.

I agree. He has all the tools to be on eof the greats. The fight I remember the most is when he took Vic Darchinian out with one perfect left hook. Now this is when Vic was still in his prime.

Man, that left came in so quick that you have to slow it down A LOT to really appreciate it. The sound of that blow was amazing as well!

Like I said. This kid has all the tools. He boxes. He can punch. He can go really far.

Vic wants a rematch with Nonito


Darchinyan lashes out at Donaire
"I made you and I will break you"

By Ray Wheatley — World of Boxing
WBA/WBC super flyweight champion Vic Darchinyan is after a rematch with Nonito Donaire, the current WBA interim super flyweight champion. Donaire, who holds a KO win over the hard-punching Australian-based Armenian, and will defend his belt against Gerson Guerrero on a February 13 pay-per-view card in Las Vegas.
“Donaire needs to stand up and fight someone who can actually throw some punches back at him,” stated Darchinyan. “Since he fought me, who has he fought? Bums that either shouldn’t be boxing or should be retired. I am praying he wins his next fight and comes through with no injuries, I don’t want him making excuses when I finish his career. Don’t go looking for Arce and make that a excuse of why won’t fight me. Get through your next fight and it’s me and you, anytime, anywhere.
He continued, “Stop running and saying there were rematch clauses and you wanted to fight me. I would have fought you the next day if I had my way. The people around you care about your career they know if you fight me you will be knocked out. Now you’re fighting junior flyweights and you think you’re a champion. Your opponents are hand picked to make you look good. You’re a fraud and you’re fighting bums. I promise I won’t make the same mistake again. I made you and I will break you and expose you for the fraud that you really are.”

Valero fights for free on Showtime I think on Saturday.

Interesting to see if Stone Hands Jr. can make it 27 for 27.

Demarco was still too green for this fight in my opinion. They were trying to bring him along too quickly. I like the references of manny paquiao in regards to Valero's style. Valero's face seems to be made out of paper mache'.

Valero VS Pac in the future!

Yeah! Who says that they have to fight in the US?

They can fight in Mexico City!

Valero needs some damn publicity!

This kid is a beast

Yea he def has the power, skill and heart to move up. I dunno if he will want to take the time to become better.

Haha he was kinda like a Manny but instead of the awkward smiling he had equally awkward "imma kill you" look in his eye. Cant believe he fought with that big ass cut upside his head.

I was happy to see some good boxing. Super 6 coming up soon.

Hope Dirrell clowns on Arthur.

On a related note.
Unbeaten junior middleweight Alexander Abraham (25-0-1, 17 KOs), the younger brother of boxing superstar Arthur Abraham, has retired from the ring. According to trainer Ulli Wegner, an unexplained dizziness prompted the 28-year-old prospect to hand up his gloves. Meanwhile Arthur Abraham is headed to the United States to face Andre Dirrell in SHOWTIME’s acclaimed Super Six tournament on March 6 in Palm Springs, CA.

i saw nonito walking around with his girl/entourage at the kessler / ward fight.. that dude is tiny.. i could probably knock his a55 out lol.. or NOT

I've been avoiding this thread til I finally got to see the Valero fight for myself. Awesome fight! Very fan friendly style

I was surprised DeMarco was able to stay on his feet the whole time. Which is either a testament to his chin or that maybe Valero doesn't hit as hard?

I'd like to think DeMarco has a good chin.

Been hearing that Valero and Bradley are in talks for a Showtime match-up maybe on June 5th
