Donaire plugging away after a year and a half out of the ring. Always potential for being involved in a war and attempting to snag his 9th title belt :cwm13: in the span of a very respectable 20 year career. In this age of counting trinkets like cards at a poker table it's almost an afterthought that Doniare has made that select 4 division champ group. Batyrzhan Jukembayev18-0 (14) v Subriel Matias 16-1 (16) Jr welters looks to be the co main.
Respectable career is an understatement. Donaire an all-time great.
Agreed. He really is a compliment to the sport and proven very wise going back to 118 power and stamina intact. To the point of walking through Oubaali for the finish and going on 40 his future and legacy just getting brighter.Quote:

Donaire is a legend to do this at his age. I watched him lose to Frampton and thought that would be the end of his career but he seems to have got better.
It appeared as though he turned back the clock on gaining the bantamweight title and attempted to revise the left hook.
nordine was tailor made for nonito at any age. super light has the potential to be fire
He's still got the left hook eh. I can remember the reaction on this board when he sparked Darchinyan. It's a shame the search function only goes so far back.
He's made plenty of fans rethink the saying about age forgiving no one and someone will be looking to bottle his newly found energy.
so whats the better rematch? naoya or guillermo?
Donaire was flawless in his victory against Oubaal. He started sharp, fantastic footwork, and threw quick right hands against the southpaw opponent.
It was Donaire vicious left hook that turned the fight into a quick knock out. That left hook is a thing of beauty that Julian Jackson would be proud to have.

It is almost as if he as a resurgence a second career in boxing- rivaling the accomplishments of his 1st. Nothing but respect for Donaire. For this era he deserves to be mention as one of the greats.
