Donaire: I wasnt at 100 percent when I fought Darchinyan

[JM1]

THE RING: Knocking out Darchinyan was a breakthrough fight for you. What do you recall about that fight?

ND: I wasn’t at 100 percent when I fought Darchinyan. I didn’t spar much. The longest sparring session was seven rounds. I did a lot of running and a lot of work with the mitts. It was the biggest fight of my life, but we didn’t have enough money to go to training camps and stay in hotels for weeks or months. We did most of the training two weeks before the fight, and that’s almost unheard of. Normally, that’s when you slow down and give your body rest.

Can you imagine if he trained more for the fight? He probably KTFO duckhinyan in the 1st rd.

OR proof of Donaires excellence? Darchiniyan is a very good fighter he has been rising up the weights too quickly and he still only lost a close one to Agbeko.

Beating Mijares, Arce, Gorres (he won that it was no draw) and Kirilov isn't a small feat.

Lots of hype coming on for Donaire but its much deserved. HE is the REAL deal. And can't wait til he eventually moves up and gets the big fights at 126-130.
