Penalosa Confirms That He'll Train Donaire For Montiel

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

WBO bantamweight champion Gerry Penalosa has confirmed that he will train IBF/IBO flyweight champion Nonito “The Filipino Flash” Donaire for his scheduled March 15 title fight against WBO super flyweight champion Fernando Montiel on March 15 at the Araneta Coliseum. [details]

[Silencers]

Donaire should get a proper trainer to train him for this fight.

[KalboKO]

This is a bad mistake for Donaire. There's a reason Filipino boxers go overseas to get high level training. The trainers here aren't very good. Look at the bouts with locals fighters here. Ever see a jab? Or any kind of head movement or purposeful footwork? Donaire should get someone who's a step up from his father, not an excellent boxer who has no experience as a trainer at the championship level.

il probably watch this fight live

[giacomino]

Penalosa might as well train somebody since he's not actually fighting or defending his WBO bantamweight title. Dude has only defended once in 1 1/2 years and I'm betting the Morel fight will never take place

[mellow_mood]

penalosa will loose against morel

[wengz2002]

penalosa will loose against morel

That is if the fights happen in Puerto Rico!
I must admit, Morel's fighting style is like Tokuyama and InjoCho... that is slickness and... not willing to engage toe-to-toe!!!

I kinda like penalosa's defensive skills... he's clever but not boring to watch!!!
Just hope Morel will not RUN in this fight~
