Vic finally gets Donaire.

[straight left]

Just spoke to Elias Nasser and he told me that Vic will finally get Nonito Donaire. He said that Vic is chomping at the bit to get Donaire into the ring, he said that he is waiting to sort out the date tomorrow but it will be on either the 7th - 14th or 28th. But for even better news he said that Vic will be fighting in Sydney in May as a tune up fight !

Lets get it on !!!!!

Go THE RAGING BULL !!!!

[WhataRock]

[Rise Above]

Great stuff. Lets just hope Vic knocks him out.

[ipswich express]

Great news. Should be a great little fight. It could go either way.

[Rooster4Life]

Judging by Vics last few fights, i dont think he can win, his very predictable, and cant adapt to situations, i hope he wins.

[snakeface]

wow.. a rematch.... that's pretty big for him being that he fights people that i've never heard of and wins in unspectacular fashion...

I think he sucks... his shit talk is weak...and now he's a bit humble.... fuck him.

Sorry ROCK, got a bit excited with the news, its going to be in August. The warm up fight is going to be in May.

[Bognashavin]

Sweet, and a warm up fight here first, go Vic!

[Kegsy]

Seems like both guys are going to be taking on warmup matches in May ahead of the big showdown :)

[20a87]

long overdue

[crash]

Dont see why a lot of people are thinking vic cant beat this guy,his last few fights he has demolished the opposition,and they havent exactly been pushovers.

[ciaran]

donaire wins in this

[the beaver]

Vic not bringing anything new to this contest......... I really need convincing that he can turn the tables.

Donaire will start favourite i wld imagine.

[stiflers mum]

great news.Donaire has looked impressive in his last 2 but Vic has fought the far better fighters since they fought.hopefully a patient Vic finishes this in the 9th,10th or 11th round.bring ze power.

[roscoe]

This is a must win fight for Vic to finally silence his critics.........and there seems to be many. He still drops that right hand when he loads up his left & Donaire will have his eyes set for that left hook again. I hope Vic can pull this one out as its a big big fight for him.

[IrnBruMan]

Vic would have to be stupid to go into a rematch with Donaire and use the same tactics that saw him get sparked cold.

He's not stupid, so I suspect we'll see him fighting very craftily, but still pressing the action.

I like Vic by late round KO/TKO in this one.

He wouldn't be so keen for a rematch if he didn't think he had the tactics to beat Donaire.

From the general forum......

SHAW SAYS DARCHINYAN-DONAIRE REMATCH SET FOR AUGUST

By Ronnie Nathanielsz
PhilBoxing.com
Tue, 23 Mar 2010

Well known promoter Gary Shaw says the eagerly anticipated rematch between WBC/WBA super flyweight champion Vic Darchinyan and WBA Interim champion Nonito “The Filipino Flash” Donaire has been set for August.


Shaw told us last week that he and Top Rank promoter Bob Arum who handles Donaire had worked out an agreement for the rematch and it was sent to the Darchinyan camp headed by his manager Elias Nassar and that he was waiting for a go ahead from the Darchinyan camp.

Shaw confirmed that “most everything else between myself and Top Rank is done” while Arum told us he believes the fight will happen on August 7 at the Home Depot Center in Los Angeles.

Arum told us “Donaire is going to fight a tune-up fight on May 15 and then he’s going to fight Darchinyan in Los Angeles at the Home Depot Center on August 7.” However, he still didn’t know who Donaire will fight in the tune-up bout.

When we checked with Shaw Tuesday, Manila Time, he told us “they want the fight” and that he was in discussions with "Showtime" regarding the financial aspects of the pay-per-view and television coverage.

When asked whether everything was alright, Shaw replied “everything is perfect” and that he was finalizing the date.
Donaire earlier laughed off claims by the Armenian-born Australian Darchinyan that he (Donaire) was scared to face him in a rematch.

Darchinyan made the claim after scoring a twelve round unanimous decision over gallant but inexperienced Mexican Rodrigo Guerrero who was fighting outside his country for the very first time. Guerrero who had a record of 13-1-1 going into the fight was coming off a KO win over unheralded Rey Lopez last December 18. Prior to that he won a unanimous eight round decision over Luis Maldonado, the same fighter who was pulverized by Donaire and lost by an 8th round TKO in an IBF/IBO flyweight title bout in December 2007.

The 34 year old Australian who suffered a one-punch knockout that sent him reeling across the ring in a daze in the 5th round in a title fight on July 7, 2007 in which Darchinyan lost both his IBF and IBO flyweight titles in the “Knockout of the Year” claimed in a post fight interview with Steve Farhood of Showtime that he thinks Donaire was scared to give him a rematch.

thats because you know nothing of boxing you tool

[raff]

Vic definantly has the ability to win this. He just needs to be in the right headspace. If he comes out like he did for mijares, it will be an easy night. Go Vic. Use ze jabbing and ze boxing then make him feel the power. Raging bull by ko late rounds. Where can I get tickets for the Sydney fight

[buster007]

because he smacked his brother silly, i think vic was a bit too blase' about nonito and thought he'd turn up throw a few punches and be the winner. he is clearly not as careless now as what he once was.

Vic was great against Mijares and if he fights like that I think he will beat Donaire but if he fights like he did against Agbeko I can see him getting knocked out again.

[Sandman_]

Really pleased to hear this fight is nearly go for August. And that Vic will likely be taking a tune-up in May in Australia.

That's about as good as it gets from my perspective but I think it's important that they take the opportunity to match him with someone decent for the tune-up fight in May.

Whilst he got 12 rounds under his belt last start his opponent lacked both skills & hand speed. Nonentity has both.

The guy who pulled out on Vic last start (Raul Martinez) would be a good choice, imo. He's a former US amateur champion.

It would be worth spending a few extra dollars to get someone decent who will sharpen Vic up & pose a few problems.

Match Vic tough in May at home against someone with skills & hand speed & he will be good to go in August against Nonentity Donaire.

[raff]

Well said sandman. Hopefully they don't just find someone that makes him look good

[T.C.W]

forget the warm up fight, this fight is for all marbles. This is it for Vic, If he wins this he become a all time great

[rongee90]

Warm up fight would be great in Sydney but it won't happen as he'll want too much...Unfortunately for promoters, Vic is not a household name that will justify his purse. Well known amongst the boxing purists, but not the general public.

[T.C.W]

He doesn't need to fight here, he fighting on USA cable TV. the guy has been on showtime over 10 times.

[rongee90]

He doesn't need to fight here, he fighting on USA cable TV. the guy has been on showtime over 10 times.

I understand that. Just responding to previous posts and a close source that he has been trying to negotiate a warm up in Sydney before Donaire. Wants to fight in his back yard...
