The father/trainer of former five division world champion Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire-? ?Dodong? Donaire says he ?can?t ask for anything more? from his son.
?Dodong? Donaire told the New Standard/boxingmirror.com that Nonito will wind up sparring ten rounds on Tuesday and Thursday in Las Vegas time before leaving for Puerto Rico on Friday.
He said ?Nonito did what he wants to do in the ring and looks very good. The guys give him a lot of work and keep on pressuring him and even if he hurts them, they keep on coming. If Nonito feels that he hurt them he slows down a little bit.?
?Dodong? Donaire said the clash with WBO International super bantamweight champion and world No.1 ranked Cesar Juarez ?is going to be a good fight? and added, ?Nonito is back. He?s a lot better now. They way he boxes, the way he thinks. Now he lands his punches very accurately.?
He said Nonito ?trained very hard for this fight and was not like the old Nonito. He?s a much better boxer, a thinker and rhe power is there.?
?Dodong? said they are all looking forward to a truly Merry Christmas after the fight which will be telecast by the giant broadcast network ABS-CBN Channel 2 and also on the Sports and Action channel 17.
There's been no word from the training camp of Juarez, the 24 year old Mexican with a record of 13 knockouts in 17 wins with 3 losses.
In his last fight on July 25, Juarez won the vacant WBO International super bantamweight title by a twelve round unanimous decision over Juan Carlos Sanchez Jr.
