That sucks.. Nonito needs to fight the winner of Mares/Agebko ( Preferably Agbeko cuz he matches up better ) and move up to 122.. He doesn't need to fight Moreno unless he wants to be the undisputed champ.. Moreno is ordinary and he aint got a snowball's chance in hell..
Nonito said that arum promised him the winner of Nishioka/Marquez... <<< bad ass fight...
Has Nonito ever fought a man who was less than 2 inches shorter than him?![]()
At the same time, I think nonito takes too much criticism for his size.. Being tall dont necessarily make one bigger..
As long as he can make weight, that's what matters.. That's how all boxers are.. They boil down from their natural weight division to gain advantage.. That goes for all boxers, not only nonito.
If Nonito fails to knock people out at 122-126, I bet people will say that he's a natural bantamweight..
I really dont give a shit who he's fighting.. The Flash is a fuckin badazz and the greatest Filipino fighter of all time, period..
Mal choice, Jorge Arce would give Donaire a better challenge at a catch-weight and bring in more revenue...No, I'm serious, if Arce holds it down at super-bantam, puts down Simph's upstart and defends his gold well, he'll make Nonito look like he's ducking him ritenow. : o

lol.. Arce is going to give him a better challenge? Arce might get carried out on a stretcher if he faces Nonito and im not even joking..
Narvaez knows how to box at least and he doesn't block punches with his face.
If arce wants to live a healthy lifestyle after boxing, he must stay away from nonito at all costs..
Arum says it will happen when Nonito makes his debue @SB, so we'll most probably see homes.![]()

i don't think there's time for nonito to wait for mares, agbeko or moreno coz it's getting more and more difficult for him to make 118lbs. mares and agbeko seem headed for a rematch and moreno isn't keen on facing nonito. anselmo is slated to face erik morel and i think it's going to be a tough fight for him which he could very well lose.
i think donaire should move up and test the waters at superbantam with a top 20 guy like molitor or oquendo to prepare him for a possible fight early next year with the winner of the marquez-nishioka fight. unifying the bantamweight is beginning to be out of reach for nonito at this point and time. if he can carry his speed and power going up in weight, he could probably do that in a higher weight division.
Rather than test the water at junior featherweight, Donaire's facing Narvaez as HBO has reluctantly approved the bout.
This is a solid step down in competition from Fernando Montiel and worse also because Narvaez is at such a huge size disadvantage. It leaves you already wondering what's next?
definitely a disappointing match up for nonito. but maybe he needs an easier opponent this time out after being out of the ring for quite awhile. i do hope they can still find a replacement though, someone more his size.
Don't get me wrong, I think Donaire is an outstanding fighter! But I think this fight will be tougher than many of you are assuming. Sure Narvaez' resume is questionable but the guy can fight!
The Best There Is, The Best There Was, The Best There Ever Will Be
the problem is donaire has been getting the reputation of fighting opponents not his size. narvaez though a tough undefeated dude is another fighter coming up in weight and the height difference is considerable. if he blows him away he wouldn't get much props from it. it's time he should fight someone his own size to show how really good he is. anyway, this is supposed to be his last fight at bantam. next year i expect better match ups for him.
Galaxy,
How you been man? Miss the chats we used to have.
Yourself and Eagle always a good chat about the lower weight classes...
Anywhoo... I agree, despite the size advantage if Narvaez has a good/decent chin and can hold on. I think he's elusive enough to give Nonito a good challenge.
donaire fought a piece of shite Montiel and has no future.
