    It ain't Nonito's fault for being ducked!

    You know what, I made a thread recently on the subject of the current Top 10 P4P rankings and listed Nonito as one of the fighters that should be kicked out of it, due to his inactivity and level of competition.

    But, you know what, it ain't really Nonito's fault, each post-fight interviews after he just got done dispatching a bum. He has called out Arce and Montiel over and over again.

    Montiel has gone on record that he wasn't gonna be able to do it, because he can no longer make the weight and Arce has never responded.

    Darchinnyan's promoter until recently refused a rematch. There's really no other bankable fights for Nonito. In a perfect boxing world, I agree, it should be Nonito-Agbeko. But, he's a high-risk/low reward from a promoter's POV.

      Dude shut up. With PAC's ascent to the top, it's proof that Pinoy fighters are bankable!! Did you see the turnout for Pinoy Power 2, obviously it is been doing good #s or else Top Rank is not gonna bother with putting up a 3rd installment !

        I like Flash I think he is the real deal. I remember Mijares wanted to fight Donaire. But, then Mijares just fell off. And, no other fighter at 112 or 115 really wanted with Donaire.

        But, now Gary Shaw has done a 180 and is willing to put sic Vic against Nonito. So maybe we will see that rematch. If Nonito wins He should just go up to 118. And, try to get a fight with Yohhny Perez, Abner Mares, or the Montiel-Morel winner.

          If Donaire can move up to Bantamweight and still retain his quickness and take the power of the guys there, it adds yet another quality fighter to an already talented division.

          Plus, if he does go up, it'll most likely fill the void left by Hasegawa.

            i think it was foolish of him to try to antagonize those japanese champs as if they have any control over their situation with the awknowledgement of certain belts, getting on the phone and calling people out is not how you do it out there. those arent leaving japan unless the money is right.

            other than that though hes certainly in some ways a victim of circumstance.

                How do you think he would do at Bantamweight?

                  Honestly, Juanma would pound him into submission, an exchange with him would NOT end up in his favor.

                    I think he could do well. He was at super flyweight before Darchinyan and I've read he gets up to 130+ pounds in between fights, so I don't the extra weight would be a burden. Plus it's only three pounds to begin with.

                    The thing is, how will his power go up? Will he have the pop to keep a strong fighter like Agbeko off him?

                    What are your thoughts?
