    Default Who Does Donaire Face Next?

    Wait for the tournament to finish and face the winner? Move up in weight and face one of the top guys at 122? Kameda?

    His personal choice is to be an undisputed champ at 118 first then move up.

    But I heard his handlers want bigger dough north of that division.

    Well we know from how long it took him to fight some decent opp after beating Darchinyan that he won't worry about waiting as long as it takes for those guys to become free.

    They are his options. Really, I'd like to see him fight Kameda. The Bantam Tournament has produced close fights thus far and I think there could be a rematch or 2 between some of those guys. I'd rather not see him move up until he's had at least 1 more fight at Bantam.

    I'd really like him to fight Kameda for sure, and maybe Agbeko if he comes through the Tournie as winner, not sure Mares deals with Donaires speed and power. Agbeko I'd say maybe takes Donaires shots better and keeps the pressure on.

    Sweep up the division and then take the trip onward and upward. He has the frame to make it all the way up to lightweight IMO as long as long as its done steadily.

    I told nonito to pick up titles in each division and then eventually face one of the featherweights.

    Preferably; Kameda, Rafa, Juanma/Gamboa.

    Most people would likely say it can't be done but to earn legendary status he should try.

    I would really like to see Nonito Donaire vs Hozumi Hasegawa soon.

    I think a excellent move for Donaire would be to go all the way to 126lbs and take out Chris John.

    he needs to clean out 118 that would be a way bigger statement than taking out the weakest champion at 126

    He's already made that statement by taking out Montiel. Time to move on. He could jump ring in there with Lopez....
