Nonito Donaire question

man i sure know donaire now.. great fighter

I know him since 2006. I met him in a Party. I predicted he;ll beat Dachinyan and even predicted the punch that will KO him. He'll Carry the PinoY Flag when Pac retires. Here's the original predictions from esb: 07-03-2007, 07:41 AM #1 PacDbest Belt holder ESB Addict Join Date: May 2006 Posts: 3,659 vCash: 1000 Darchinyan VS Donaire, I smell an Upset... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I like Darchinyan, I like KO artist, I like fighters who fights anybody. I've seen a Bunch of Darchinyan fights. Even rate him top of the 112 & top 15 P4P. I've seen only about 3 fights of Nonito in youtube. But I met the guy & his Brother Glen personally twice at a Party & we talk a lot about Boxing. He said he beat Jason Litzau in the Amateur. Also they thought that they we're robbed by the Judges when he fought Viloria in the Olympic trials. He is supposed to be lined up against Arce but Arce lost to mijares. That's why I'm not surprised when I heard he got This title shot. Based on my observation Donaire is very skillfull, quick with his hands & feet, has some Power, full of confidence, very smart, in short he's the Filipino version of PBF. Personality wise this guy are way different than his Brother Glen who is the Shy or low key guy. Nonito, in the Parties that we've been in, is the light of the dancefloor. He dances all night long proves he has an endless stamina. Good dancer too means he has good Hand, eye & feet coordination. The only question is... can he handle Vic's Power?? I ask his cornermen if he has a good chin, they say he was woobled once but recovered & KO the opponent shortly. I've seen replay of the dachinyan-Pacheco fight, in this fight Pacheco was outboxing Vic, Then the fireworks interrupt the fight, Vic recovered & KOed Pacheco shortly. Pacheco is one of the tallest fighter Vic has fought. The reason I smell upset is because Nonito is a Legit 5'6" & a half. he's quicker & he can move. Vic will have a hardtime finding him. Nonito has a lethal left hook & I see them landing everytime Vic tries to attack. I don't think Darchinyan can be KOed, but I see Donaire outboxing him in a lopsided fashion. Kinda like what Mijares did to ARce. I mentioned that Lethal left hook from the very start!! I made this prediction in 2007!

Donaire? Tell me anything he has done since knocking out Vic, that is even remotely worthwhile of mentioning. Maybe you know Montiel??

You should probably watch other fighters instead. This guy has 1 marginal win and somehow makes it to the Ring mag p4p list? Ultimate example of shadyness in boxing. His rank is pretty much paid for and we havent really seen him do much and also to very limited competition. He got a good W against Darchinyan but was pretty visibly scared in that fight. I believe the punch that KOed Darch was landed with his eyes closed. After the fight the one crying most was Nonito because he still didnt believe he won. He was expecting to get KOed like his brother. Anyway, this guy Darchinyan is more worth following. Goes for the KO every fight. Hes got skill for days and just doesnt use it. Prefers to use bludgeoning force. If you like fake pampered primadonna fighters who are primadonnas for pretty much no reason, Nonito is your man. If you watch boxing only to see which asian guy is doing good well keep watching Nonito and surely you will see him get his ass whooped eventualy so i wouldnt recommend him. Get outta here...

I blame Bob Arum for that. Donaire wanted to fight the likes of Arce, Darchinyan and Montiel but Bob kept putting him in there with sub-par opponents. Word is that this might be because Pacquiao dislikes Donaire. This could be because Nonito went on TV in the Phillipines and said that he thought Marquez beat Pacquiao. I don't think this is any reason to hold a grudge against him but when the cameras are off, Pacquiao isnt the good, humble guy that he appears to be. And because Manny is the cash cow of Top Rank, He gets whatever he wants. Donaire is very popular, Arum could easily have put him on one of Manny's undercards to give him some more exposure but he kept putting him on those amatuer "Pinoy Power" cards. Hopefully Arum will give Donaire some big fights in the future. Nada... Pac and Nonito are good friends... Nonito was guest star on Manny's TV sitcom when it was starting out... their roles are cousins and they pretty much enjoyed themselves...

Ok, i dont follow boxing as much as i used to... i recently heard of this guy but i dont know much about him is he legit? skill wise, record { only 1 defeat - 2nd fight } is he the top dog in the division? You should probably watch other fighters instead. This guy has 1 marginal win and somehow makes it to the Ring mag p4p list? Ultimate example of shadyness in boxing.

He has the goods, unfortunately stuck at lowerweights...

We'll find out just how good he is after Montiel. Too bad that tourney won't happen, that would have been great.

He's a very good fighter, speed, skills power and he's very big for his weight class. He normally walks around in the 130s and manages to get himself down to 115, but his level of competition since he beat Vic Darchinyan has been somewhat disappointing. Maldonado, Mthalane, Martinez and Concepcion are OK fighters but not really on the same level as Donaire is. He probably isn't the top guy at 115 right now, I think most people would have Darchinyan as the top guy with Donaire as number 2, for whatever reason they have never been able to agree to a rematch, he's more than likely moving up to 118 for his next fight since the rematch with Darchinyan isn't happening, which would make him a very good addition to one of the best weight classes in boxing right now, a fight between him and the man most people think is the best at 118, Fernando Montiel would be one of the best fights that can be made in boxing. Anyways, Donaire is a guy with plenty of skills and talent but he needs to fight the opponents that can really add to his resume and to prove that he can beat top level guys on a consistent basis.

he is blessed with a great set of potential foes in and around his division... hasegawa-donaire will be a great technical fight...

probably the best skilled pinoy fighter out there besides gerry penalosa better skilled than pac?

hes good, but he only has one really good win against darchinyan. after that win, he hasn't done much. he's looked great so far, but hasn't had top comp besides darchinyan. he's legit skillwise, he's not top his division. but he will be if he beats montiel.

probably the best skilled pinoy fighter out there besides gerry penalosa

He is one of the top money attractions in his division
