I think Donaire fought more fights in the USA than Darchinyan...

It's clear you don't know very much about Nonito Donaire...
.
Nonito has never fought bums in the phillipines? Of course he has. Where is his major fanbase? The USA? No its the Phillipines! So if he'd never got his big break with Shaw where would he be most likely be fighting? Exactly where his next fight is. The PHILLIPINES!!!

U proved nothing their. You think i know little about fighters yet u clearly know nothing about any fighters but Pac and other Philipinos. Bet u felt good cos your cluless Flip mates patted u on the back.

Point is my whole argument is that Vic is higher uo the boxing ladder now and Nonito has done Jack since the Vic fight. That is true.
Im not sure..but I think he did signed for a Montiel fight. Don't know what happened but I heard Montiel dropped the belt and is fighting Morel next. You said Martinez aint bum. And you should drop this venue argument because I'm sure Saddoboxer would own your a*ss in this one. Top Rank said Donaire's next fight is a 'homecoming fight' and I just checked BoxRec it's true he has only fought twice outside the US. It even says his hometown is California. and Im pretty sure that boxing is very big in the Phillipines and that his next fight would do more money wise. Remember he's promoted by Top Rank now. when he fought Darchinyan in Connecticut there were like 300 people in the casino. Yes a casino. Against Vic Darchinyan.
Saddoboxer isnt owning anyone. The arguments he comes out with are blatant fanboy cfrap tne majority of the time.
My points are all correct. I'll write them down for u.
1. Donaire beat Vic fair and square but since that fight Vic has done a lot more than Nonito.
2. Nonito Donaire is not well known to the casual boxing fan and not a big draw. Particularly comapred to the likes of Arce and the top guys at 122.
3. Shaw gave Donaire his big break, which he took, yet after that fight Donaire thought his star was brighter than it was and his over the top demands have meant he hasnt got the big fights since.
4. It is unreasonable to say Vic is scared and ducking Donaire if he is fighting other top guys, and looking to fight the likes of Monteil, Vasquez and Marquez. Especially considering there may now be a 2 division gap between Nonito and Vic, 112-118.
5. I repeat i think Nonito is a great talent and beat Vic fair and square, and would have a good chance of doing so again. Im not a Vic fanboy, or a donaire hater i just see it as it is. I also think Nonito's out of ring behaviour needs improving or otherwise he may be a wasted talent. If he doesnt get and win the big fights soon his only big win may be forgotten.


I think that is a fair assessment.
