Donaire kumportable sa 122 lbs.

- Ni RCadayona -

MANILA, Philippines - Mula sa paghahari sa flyweight at bantamweight divisions, nagugustuhan ni Nonito 'The Filipino Flash' Donaire, Jr. ang kanyang pag-akyat sa super bantamweight class.

“I think we are going to be at 122 pounds for a while,” wika ni Robert Garcia, ang Mexican trainer ni Donaire. "Nonito feels very comfortable. His weight is right on target. He’s got no weight problem. So I think 122; we are going to be there for a few fights.”

Nagkampeon ang tubong Talibon, Bohol sa fly­weight category ng International Boxing Federation (IBF) at International Bo­xing Organization (IBO) at sa World Boxing Council (WBC) at World Boxing Organization (WBO) bantamweight class.

Haharapin ni Donaire si Wilfredo Vazquez, Jr. para sa bakanteng World Bo­xing (WBO) super bantamweight title sa Pebrero 4 sa Alamodome, San Antonio, Texas.

Ayon kay Garcia, hindi magkukumpiyansa si Donaire laban sa 27-anyos na si Vazquez, isinuko ang suot na WBO super bantamweight title kay Mexican Jorge Arce via 12th-round TKO noong Mayo 7, 2011.

Huli namang nakatikim ng pagkatalo si Donaire noong Marso 10, 2001 nang mabigo kay Rosendo Sanchez via unanimous decision sa isang non-title, five-round bout sa Vallejo, California, USA.

Nagdadala si Donaire ng 27-1-0 win-loss-draw ring record kasama ang 18 KOs slate, samantalang may 21-1-1 (18 KOs) card si Vazquez.
