Comments Thread For: Team Rodriguez Confident of Ending Nietes Long Title Run

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Mandatory challenger Francisco “Chihuas” Rodriguez (17-2-1, 11 KOs) arrived in Manila in the early morning hours of Monday, checked in with his trainer at a hotel in Malate and began training on Tuesday afternoon at the Elorde Gym on Taft Avenue.

The New Standard/BoxingScene.com were alerted to the plan of Rodriguez and his team to travel to the Philippines last Sunday which was two weeks ahead of his title fight against Donnie “Ahas” Nietes (35-1-4, 21 KOs) for the WBO flyweight championship on July 11 at the Waterfront Hotel Casino in Cebu City.

Nietes is ancient for a light flyweight and he might be ready to go, but I don't think Rodriguez is the one to send him packing.

Nietes is ancient for a light flyweight and he might be ready to go, but I don't think Rodriguez is the one to send him packing.

Nietes has opened up a bit more recently compared to his usual economic punch output.

I'm hyped for this fight.
