Nonito Donaire vs. Fernando Montiel fight this coming November?

Nonito Donaire stopped Hernan Marquez in the eighth round last night in Puerto Rico to stake his claim to the interim WBA world super flyweight title. It was a spectacular stoppage for the big punching ‘Filipino Flash’, and his seventh KO victory in his last eight wins. While Donaire is widely considered one of the best fighters in boxing’s lower weight classes and is regarded by many as a top pound-for-pound fighter in all of boxing, marquee fights have avoided him in the last few years.

Mayweather wants Khan rather than Pacquiao, afraid?

Why do Floyd Mayweather keep on hiding when talking about his next fight probably to Pacquiao? scared?. How many times that people call for Mayweather to fight Pacquiao but still the camp of Mayweather making non-sense excuses. Pacquiao vs Mayweather would be possible? or yelling this fight would be a big waste of time. However, while Mayweather may be a scared fighter, he’s also a very smart fighter. That’s why he’ll likely end up fighting the young and inexperienced Amir Kahn instead of Pacquiao.

“You have Mayweather who wants to fight,” Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya said. “Amir wants to fight Mayweather. He wants to fight the very best, but obviously right now it’s vacation time.”

In the grand scheme of things a victory over Khan would mean absolutely nothing for Mayweather. But in Money May’s own little mind he’d somehow justify it into a reason for not fighting Pacquiao.

Love him or hate him, Mayweather is a great self-promoter. You can bet your butt that he would spend every second leading up to a fight against Khan trying to convince everyone in the world that Khan is similar to Manny Pacquiao in nearly everything they do. more on...

What do Roach think if Shane Mosley and Manny Pacquiao's fight push through?

Many people predicts that Manny Pacquiao next fight would be the best Shane Mosley. There were many speculation about this bout. Yes, many people say's that it is a great bout in compare to Pacquiao Vs Margarito. Now, what Roach opinion about this?

Freddie Roach understands this and welcomes the challenge. 

“I think Mosley could be a tough fight. Last year when he beat [Antonio] Margarito, everyone thought he was the greatest thing. Now after the Mayweather fight, they think he’s nothing. I think Shane is a very tough guy,” Roach said.

At the end of the day, I’m not sure if Pacquiao can knock Mosley out. However, I know one thing for certain. Manny Pacquiao is a better fighter than Floyd Mayweather Jr.

In other words, if Money May can beat Sugar Shane so can Pacman. It’s as simple as that.

Manny Pacquiao's Next Fight: Why Juan Manuel Marquez Is Not It

here is no doubt in my mind that Juan Maunuel Marquez has his place in boxing history. As a Pound for Poundchampion? No. There are way too many impressive people in their prime, on the rise, and like Marquez on the decline.

The fight everyone wants to see is Pacquiao vs Maywether. One thing I am willing to bet on is that this will not be Pacquiao's next fight. Mayweather needs to fight someone as a tune up match before Pacquiao. Someone he can fight with no real risk of a loss. Maybe Mayweather takes KJ Noons up on his challenge. Read more...

Around the Net: Amir Khan vs Marcos Maidana Pre-Fight Edition

It's been a little over two years since Amir Khan's stunning opening round KO loss to unheralded Colombian puncher Bredis Prescott.  Since then, the lightning fast 2004 Olympian has bounced back to win five in row and establish his credentials as one of the sport's brightest talents.

An impressive recovery, though noticeably missing from the Khan's recent conquests is the type of puncher that can test just how far Khan has truly progressed.  Is he really an elite talent capable of soon being the man at 140lbs?  Or will the Khan's chin hold him back from future greatness?

DONAIRE BREAKS SYDORENKO'S NOSE

Nonito Donaire Stops Voldymyr Sydorenko in Fourth Round

WBA interim super flyweight (115 pounds) titlist Nonito Donaire earned his 24th straight victory and his ninth stoppage in his past 11 fights with Saturday night's fourth-round knockout over Ukrainian bantamweight (118 pounds) Voldymyr Sydorenko, who was knocked out for the first time in his career at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif. 

"To be honest, I didn't even really go to my plan. The counter-hooks are always going to be me. I wanted to throw a lot of punches," said Donaire, who floored Sydorenko in the first, third and fourth rounds. "As you could see, there were some punches that I could have thrown. But I knew that I could take him out with one punch, so that's what I was going to." Read more...

Khan 23 year old is the more skilled boxer, graceful and athletic, while blessed with great speed and punching power. Khan won a silver medal at the 2004 Athens Olympics, when he was merely 17, told media that he is tired of the doubters who have had issues with Kahn since his loss to Briedis Prescott in late 2008.

Maidana 27 year old is more of a steady force, a more proletariat performer. Maidana won his interim WBA World Championship after his TKO over “Vicious” Victor Ortiz. He has successfully defended the crown in three subsequent fights. Read more...

Donaire vs Sydorenko: The boxing preview

Nonito Donaire burst onto American boxing scene in 2007 when he scored a spectacular one punch knock out, that was later named a knock out of the year, over a notorious Armenian banger, Vic Darchinyan. Like a bullet a counter hook put Darchinyan down into never-never land. Lightning fast punch was so devastating that the former champion still didn't know what happened to him minutes after it was all over.

But the reality of fighting at the lower weight divisions hit Nonito harder than the punch he threw to win an IBF flyweight title. Frustrated with not being able to secure a meaningful fight, even after scoring a knock out of the year on Showtime network, Donaire parted ways with his promoter Gary Shaw and signed with the very best in the business, Bob Arum of Top Rank.

Carl Froch: “If Manny Pacquiao moves to Super Middleweight, I’m Retiring!”

Carl Froch has been in fine fettle this week. He had time to talk about Manny Pacquiao, his relationship to Rachael the mother of his son Rocco, his future, and just what it would mean to him to have the WBC supermiddleweight title belt - which he held for 17 months – back in his possession. It will be a rugged encounter with Armenian Arthur Abraham.  

Firstly, though, Manny Pacquiao. We talked of the Pacquiao v Antonio Margarito contest two weeks ago, and Froch, a warrior himself thought the contest an antidote to what we had seen hours earlier between David Haye and Audley Harrison. Read More...
