IBF flyweight champion Nonito Donaire Jr. has just been released by promoter Gary Shaw, effectively making him a free agent who can now negotiate for big fights through his manager Cameron Dunkin.
The champion's father and trainer, Nonito Sr, also informed that the boxing champion is currently sparring with his brother Glenn in San Leandro, California. Glenn Donaire is vying for the IBF light flyweight crown against Ulises Solis on July 12.
"They sparred 6 rounds yesterday," said Donaire Sr, who is currently in Reno, Nevada to attend to his Mongolian prospect Bak Choluun (full name Bakhuu Otgoncholuun) who will face Mexican Omar Valencia today.
The Arthro Kontra Arthritis-sponsored Nonito Donaire Jr had earlier expressed interest in facing the other flyweight world champions, or any of the big names in the superflyweight divisio like Fernando Montiel, Cristian Mijares and even his former victim Vic Darchinyan.
