“I am very hungray and I am confident that I will de­feat Nonito Donaire,” sa­bi ni Walters. “I believe I will knock him out in five or six rounds.”

Kasalukuyang bitbit ni Donaire ang 33-2-0 win-loss-draw ring record ka­sama ang 21 knockout, ha­bang dala ni Walters ang malinis na 24-0-0 (20 KOs) slate.

Tangan ni Walters ang “re­gular” version WBA fea­therweight belt, samantalang bitbit ni Donaire, ang 2012 Fighter of the Year awar­dee, ang “super” version nito.

Inangkin ni Donaire, tu­bong Talibon, Bohol, ang WBA featherweight title matapos ang kanyang technical decision victory la­ban kay Simpiwe Vetyeka no­ong Mayo 31 sa Macau, China.
