Comments Thread For: Rachel Donaire Explains Why Nonito Went To Golden Boy

[Tamis!]

Rodger Federer's wife is his business manager and he is doing very well! I wouldn't let my lady run my business but hey! To each own and if it works it works.

Sharon managed Ozzy Osbourne really well too, to each his own indeed.

yeah she does talk quite a bit.. anyone know what she does for a living? She seems pretty active with Nonito's career.

isn't she an import model?

Pac could've ensured he was on one of his cards but didn't want to share the spotlight. There's resentment there and Nonito was referring to Manny Pacquiao avoiding PED tests by saying "I'm willing to take a blood test 24-7 to prove I'm clean."

No, he wasn't taking a stave at Manny with that comment...
He was covering his ass for working with Victor Conte.

Listen, I could be wrong and no I don't hate Pac. I'm just speaking from experience. Fame can get to a persons head, no matter how rich they are. I remember Floyd told Roger not to be in Forbes corner for his fight with Oscar. When people are famous and powerful, sometimes they do funny style things. Give me a reason why Donaire ain't getting up with Top Rank? Or better yet, why he is not getting on Pacquiao's undercards? Ain't no room for two Pinoys. The adviser said it himself. Maybe jealous is too harsh of a word How about it's his ego? I can understand if it is business, so Pacquiao's people should understand the Donaire's positon as well.

name me opponent that can command Donaire atleast $1 Million pay day? How can Pac jealous of him? Pac makes more money than any boxer in the last 3 years. P4P King, on top of the world. there is nowhere else to go and Pac is kind of jealous? When Donaire was still unknow to boxing fans he never made Pacs undercard either right? its Bob Arum's call man! its not Pacquiao.
Bob promotes the fight. Donaire even in Pac's undercard wouldnt be making more money fighting in lower division. we all know that. If Pac handt fought Barrera and Morales he wouldnt be making that much money in lower division.

Pac is all about humility. If you are not Filipino u wouldnt understand what im talking about. The guy literally giving cash to people, everyday..building hospitals, schools before he even become a Congressman.

he's had 7 fights since jumping to top rank in less than 3 years.

and arum tried to get him fights.

do a search function on fights proposed for donaire.

donaire just doesn't bring enough money for the opponents to take the fights.

he was not enough money for the risk to his opponents.

When you put the guy on PPV's like Pinoy Power, and have him face bums @ $40.00 a clip, no one outside of a small group of Pinoys is going to pay to see that garbage.

Arum saw green and used...





along with Donaires name to sucker in more Filipinos to make himself a quick buck.

Those fights were solely about his wallet, and NOT Donaire career at that time.

I changed it to "ego". Don't get it twisted. No matter how rich a person may be, they always want the spot light for themselves and don't want to share the spot light with anyone else.

Bob Arum has to run everything by Manny Pacquiao because he pays Bob. If Pac doesn't cosign it, Arum ain't doing it. Well, it is supposed to be like that but looks like Arum is running the show. If you think Pac don't have no say so then you are wrong.

It would be really interesting to see Donaire in Pacquiao's undercards.

Problem with Donaire now is that he hasn't had fights in recent memory that are battle-ridden similar to Gatti-Ward or Manny vs the trio (Morales, Barrrera, Marquez). They all ended in quick short rounds, not enough to see a ring warrior like Pacquiao.

Just the same, Nonito in Pacquiao's undercards could give him the exposure he needs and gain maybe a few followers here and there.

I would agree that Arum's comment, "too much ice cream can kill", is just a ****ing disgrace.

Just give the guy what he's requesting, ****** old man.
