Nonito Donaire: If Brandon pressures Pacquiao he can give him trouble

When we last saw Nonito Donaire step into a boxing ring, he would suffer a tough loss in a unification bout with brilliant former amateur star Guillermo Rigondeaux. The Cuban would come away with unanimous decision with scores of 116-111, 115-112, 114-113, and also add the WBO belt to the WBA one he previously had. Donaire fought every round, but just seemed to come up short in most of them, unable to solve the boxing riddle that Rigondeaux presented that night.

We spoke to Nonito this past Friday, July 12th, 2013 at the Texas Station Casino, in Las Vegas Nevada, where the Filipino Flash was present for a Top Rank promoted show. Nonito was courteous as always, taking our questions on his loss to the Rigondeaux, a proposed fight with Vic Darchinyan and his thoughts on the upcoming mega bout between his good friend Brandon Rios, and his countryman Manny Pacquiao.

    Este Donaire se vuelve puras excusas, aprende a perder y se serio, Rigondeaux te dio clases de boxeo y te ridiculizó parecía que el amateur eras tu. Rigo pelea para ganar y su estilo va con el contrario. Rigondeaux tiene mejor % de Ko que tu Donaire así que asume como hombre tu derrota y deja de hablar basura que si tu peleas para entretener y si de verdad te fajas y sales a darlo todo para el fans. Que te pasó contra Rigondeaux que terminaste con menos % de golpes de poder y golpes en general que Rigo. Por qué no le cortaste el ring y contraatacaste con combinaciones de 3 y 4 golpes. Que le paso a tu famoso gancho de izquierda payaso, fanfarron, ya no te respeto. En vez de pelear con ancianos, deberías hacer una revancha con Rigondeaux para que le des Ko y no hablar tanta tontería.
