Nonito Donaire fires Robert Garcia... Employs his dad

[Ron Swanson]

I don't blame Garcia but Donaire has had a terrible approach for a long time now. Hopefully he stops loading up and lets his hands go. Rigondeaux would work him again but others should not.

I don't think Garcia should be accountable.. I doubt he told Nonito to abandon the jab and look for one punch.

One thing I didnt like though was how he trained Nonito over the " cellphone " instead of training him for real. lol

Nonito has a big ego and he seems to like having alot of yes man around him.. First he fired his dad for Garcia and now he's canning him to back to his dad..

Donaire is loss waiting to happen.

Is this actually a new story? He's been with his dad at the ALA Gym in the Philippines this week sparring with a Cuban kid.

Garcia is a vastly overrated celebrity trainer and Donaire was and is a vastly overrated celebrity fighter. To bad he cant fire himself. Its all good when you are a lightweight fighting at 118 and 122 and making highlight reels knocking out people who look like children in comparison. Quite another when you meet someone close to your size with more skill.

Awesome honest post. Now he is up against another so so champion . The guy fought one truly talented fighter and lost. Now he can fight Mickey Garcia and get KTFO . But being that his career is being led much like Pac's not likely Arum allows him to get ruined.

For a guy who claims to be an old school fan, you are acting no differently than those young fans who dismiss fighters after one loss. Donaire has lost one fight in 12 years and now he is vastly overrated?

I bet you didn't think that when he knocked out Montiel.
