Top Rank's CEO, Bob Arum, advised the Manila Bulletin that he's "still waiting" for WBC/WBO bantamweight champion Nonito Donaire to make a decision on his next move. Donaire was the main figure of a recent promotional tug of war between Top Rank and Golden Boy Promotions.
Donaire signed a deal with Golden Boy after being advised that his promotional contract with Top Rank had become invalid. A mediation was later held with Daniel Weinstein, a renowned retired judge, who issued a ruling that Donaire's contract with Top Rank was still valid.
Donaire has been inactive since knocking out Fernando Montiel in February. Before his promotional mess erupted, Donaire was scheduled to return on May 28. Reportedly, Donaire is still looking to escape his promotional deal with Top Rank.
