CEBU CITY, Philippines – Nangako si dating five-division world champion Nonito “The Filipino Flash” Donaire na kakaiba ang kanyang ipapakita sa kanyang laban kay Brazilian William Prado para sa bakanteng WBC North America Boxing Federation super bantamweight title sa co-main event ng “Pinoy Pride 30:D-Day” sa March 28 sa Smart Araneta Coliseum.
“One thing I can promise to my fans is that they will see a new and more youthful Donaire with a different fighting style. My loss to Walters was a big learning experience for me and that greatly changed my mentality to be an overall fighter,” ani Donaire, may 33-2 record na tangkang bumawi sa sixth round knockout loss kay Jamaican banger Nicholas Walters na dahilan ng pagkawala ng kanyang WBA super featherweight crown noong Oct. 18 sa StubHub Center sa Carson City, California.
“I made a mistake and I learned a lot of lessons out of that defeat against Walters. I rushed things up, wanting to finish him off early. Had I stuck to our gameplan, things would have been different,” ani Donaire sa pagharap sa media sa Rajah Park Hotel kahapon.
