    Nobody seems to know about this slate, on schedule for tonight in Las Vegas, and a PPV-Top Rank promoted fight at that!

    Donaire vs Concepcion (conqueror of AJ Banal), and Leuvano vs Abe Concepcion. This is a Filipino themed fight night, entitled Pinoy Power 2, by Bob Arum, in the mold of a more illustrious one, "Latin Fury".

    This also features another Filipino aspirant, Mark Melligen, welterweight class, who honed his skills at the Mayweather gym, and did get a few pointers from PBF himself, on sparring sessions! He is going up against Ernesto Zepeda.

    who gives a shit about the belt, what Donaire needs to do is step up the competition, tired of seeing him beat up on nobodies who are half his size, take on Darchinyan, Gorres, Arce, Nashiro, Lopez, or even jump to bantamweight and take on, Hasegawa, Agbeko, Montiel, Sidorenko, Mares, Mabuza or even Morel

    Donaire has talent and is entertaining, but seeing him beat up on bums (not that i consider Concepcion a bum) doesn't take to long for it to get boring, he has the goods to hang with (not necessarily beat) most of the big names, so why not do it

    Donaire's been calling all the top names for years. But did you hear any of them wants the peace of Donaires

    Donaire hasn't called out shit, i've heard both Darchinyan and Montiel call out Nonito and what did he do, jump back down to flyweight

    Can't wait to see the seventh best fighter on the planet finally in action again!

    If he wins tonight the Ring will HAVE to make him top 4 at least.

    He's awesome, a legend in the making, you can see that from all the quality names on his record.

    I look forward to seeing Donaire in action, although he's in relatively soft here. Luevano/Abe is going to be much more competitive, tonight Abe is gonna show if he's able to hang with elite of his division. Should be a good night of fights and more worth the money than "Hook City"
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    'Really looking forward Luevano-Abe fight too. I think both of them will steal the show.

    Now about Donaire. I hope he makes his opponent bleed to death tonight. 'Seems like R.Concepcion didn't even show an effort to lose weight. What a punkass. almost 5 lb over the limit wtf.
